• What matters is performances, regardless of what the name is, whether it's The Rock - which is my nickname and people call me that all the time - it's no big deal. So, whether it's The Rock or Dwayne Johnson, in terms of being recognised I just think that the goal is to be recognised as a good actor. I don't put much thought or weight into the name, or the name change, or what it is, or what does it mean? It's just a nickname.

• Everything creative is somewhat collaborative. If you're a painter and someone stretches your canvas, it was collaborative on some level.

I think we all work together on some level, but for the most part, we're on our own.
