Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has been pretty clear about his interest in running for president in 2020. Not too long ago there was a buzz and support for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to leave Hollywood and to challenge Donald Trump for President of the United States in 2020. But now, Johnson is putting that dream to rest.
After months of speculation, the actor told Vanity Fair on Tuesday that a bid for the White House in the next presidential election will not be happening. Johnson explained that two years was simply not enough time to properly educate himself about the position and that he would not feel comfortable taking on the role without any experience.
“Unfortunately I don’t see it happening in 2020,” he told Vanity Fair about his rumored candidacy. “It’s a position that requires years of hard work and experience to learn the skills. There’s a lot of ground to cover, and due to my schedule, it’s not possible in 2020.”
He continued: “I have so much respect for the position. It’s something that I seriously considered. What I need is time to go out and learn.”
In the meantime, he’ll still be making movies. There’s always 2024 for a campaign from the 46-year-old.
