Dwayne Johnson’s net worth stands at $800 million. Johnson has been a part of several highly successful movie franchises. His recent film, Black Adam failed to entertain his fans, and instead fell flat on its face. However, a previous film of his, Jumanji 3 is one of his most well-liked films.

Jumanji 3 was able to impress the fans and leave a good impression on them. Johnson’s acting in it was appreciated as well, and the movie was well-praised. The 2019 film was a sequel to Johnson’s 2017 film, Jumanji 2.

The third installment of the film fared well. Despite being a big-budget movie, the film took only a few months to complete and also awarded Johnson with a massive paycheck. While only taking four months to complete, the film generated a massive return of $671 million in profits.

Despite working for only four months, The Brahma Bull took home a fat cheque of $23.5 million.
