“It was a GREAT day on the river,” the Fate of the Furious star captioned a photo showing him on-board with cruisers. “Learned a lot.. for example, it takes approximately 12.6 minutes for all the passengers to get over the shock of me jumping on the boat and thinking I'm a DJ look-a-like. One passenger even said, ‘Oh the real Rock is much smaller than this guy.’ I threw his ass off the boat.”
Speaking of butts, the 44-year-old ex-wrestler humorously noted one rider who was caught on camera appearing to snap “a pic of my bootaaaay.”
And, who wouldn’t?
“This is such an amazing, fantastical and cool world to build out,” he continued about the passion project. “Best part about this surprise research day was knowing how FUN of an experience we're gonna work hard to create for families around the world. That's the part that gets my excited the most.”
“The movie. The ride. The experience,” he added. “It's the cruise of a lifetime. And trust me, you'll want me as your Skipper. Just don't forget to bring the Skipper's beer. Next step... we find our visionary director.”
Johnson is producing and starring in the live-action film, which is expected to commence production in spring 2018.
