Like Vin Diesel, he's Black when he wants to be. He praises his Samoan heritage more than anything. Winston Duke would have been a good casting. He has the imposing build.

Rock my guy, even though he's a Republican, and is "black enough" to play this role. Lot of ignorance being spewed in here right now. Black is a spectrum and as someone who was characterized at points for not being black enough I take personal offense to this.
But what people say shouldn't effect how you see yourself especially if you have black/african features. Rock has been pushing away his "blackness" for a while. When he's in a movie with a white wife and a lilly white daughter what we supposed do with that?
Black people WANTED to claim Rock for years and HE is sending the message like "I'm not over there, I'm something else"
Same thing with Tiger. Black people was riding for Tiger then he said he's not black so... ok.
Ain’t even bout the Rock being “black enough” to me...Hollywood just lazy

How has the Rock been pushing away from his blackness. He posts about his dad being black, breaking barriers, visiting the lynching museum, etc. all the time on social media. He's very open about his background and his upbringing. He's not running away from anything, he's not sending out an anti-black message. What makes you think he is?

Rock has said I'm not black? He pushes away his own father? Rock doesn't have black features? Black people didn't claim Rock for years especially when he was wrestling? Y'all reaching as usual.

As if he selected his own name...........his name is Dwayne Johnson, it dont get no blacker den that
As if he selected his own name...........
Ya'll wanna this question?
You first answer those other questions. Idk why he had a white wife. Maybe cause that's who the studio casted. I know he has one in real life which is the case with a lot of the other actors who were mentioned as alternative choices for John Henry. Are they not black enough even though they're dark skinned? My little bro just had his 1st kid who's mixed with blue eyes and light as hell.
Y'all sound ignorant.
We ignorant cuz we see him sending the message that he's something other? Ok.
And also you got real selective reading. I never said Rock didn't have black features. That's why it's funny as hell to see him with a lilly white daughter in a movie. And I clearly said that black people wanted to claim him.
And we know damn well why he had a white daughter. To market himself a certain way, it ain't no mystery.
The Rock is not some new actor with no pull. He is currently the most successful actor in Hollywood. He has the voice and power to choose who his love interests and family is. Stop making like he's powerless. You can't name another black actors who has had a movie with a all white family. Even the light skinned ones.When did the Rock say he wasn't black? When did he deny his father/heritage? When did black people not claim the Rock? Since y'all were the ones to throw out Tiger Woods.
The studios are behind casting and marketing decisions 99% of the time unless you're a partner in making a movie. Now if John Henry has a white wife be mad all you want.

Kevin was cast as the 'black guy' in this movie
Yeah I said Tiger SAID he's not black and said Rock is sending the message that he's some ambiguous, other race. I'm real clear with what I say.When did the Rock say he wasn't black? When did he deny his father/heritage? When did black people not claim the Rock? Since y'all were the ones to throw out Tiger Woods.

1. In that first movie (Race to Witch Mountain), those aren't his kids and that's not his wife/love interest. You're just posting pictures of the Rock with white people at this point.
2. Yes, he has a mixed kid in the Game Plan. That girl is the same complexion as his real-life kids. You expect him to have a dark-skinned kid?
3. Kevin Hart is cast as Kevin Hart. He has his own brand. You're trippin
