A24 Dwayne Johnson is reflecting on how he feels about not getting an Oscar nomination for his performance in the A24 film The Smashing Machine . Dwayne , 54, received some awards buzz in 2025 for the film, directed by Benny Safdie , but ultimately did not get a Best Actor nom at the Academy Awards. “It would have been incredible to get nominated for an Oscar,” he told Esquire in a newly released interview. “I realized very quickly that it’s a rare thing to reach this pinnacle where you’re even having these conversations. And it’s exciting! It would have been amazing. I wish it happened. But it didn’t.” The Jumanji star made it clear that he values what it would mean to receive an Academy Award nomination, sharing that there was never a moment where he thought, “Oh, that doesn’t matter.” He continued, “I always thought it mattered. And it has lit a fire in my spine…which is: Let’s go back to work.” Even though he didn’t get Oscar recognition, Dwayne did receive a Best Actor nom at the Golden Globes. He also has several high-profile projects in the works, like a new Hawaii-set crime drama with Martin Scorsese that will star Leonardo DiCaprio and Dwayne ‘s Smashing Machine co-star Emily Blunt .
