He’s conquered foes in the wrestling ring and on the silver screen, and now Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson is calling out toughest opponent yet – Wolverine.
The 43-year-old Instagrammed a video of himself working on the set of new film Central Intelligence as he was about to film a scene that would see him being run over by stunt motorcyclist Jack Field.
“He ran over Hugh Jackman in Wolverine,” Dwayne explained, before exclaiming “I am tougher than Hugh Jackman!”
The Hollywood A-lister added the hasthtags ‘tougher than Jackman’ and ‘but not Wolverine’
Hugh, playing along with the joke, reposted the clip and wrote: “Let’s be honest @therock…you are!”
The two are known to be close friends, with the Australian actor telling David Letterman in 2013:
“One of the coolest moments of my career, when I was speaking to him there was a knock on his trailer door…he answers and he goes I’m talking to Wolverine, you tell them to wait on set.”
