With 'Moana 2' and 'Red One', Dwayne Johnson Has Accomplished a Rare Box Office Feat

It’s a bittersweet time for Dwayne Johnson. Among the highest-paid movie stars in the world, Johnson has been struggling with box office form in recent years. But at the same time, he recently earned the rare distinction of having featured in two different films to have topped the domestic box office in the same month. Earlier in November, he starred in the Christmas-themed action-adventure film Red One, and this week, he was featured among the voice cast for Moana 2.

There is a giant asterisk attached to these achievements, however. By most standards, Red One has under-performed commercially. The movie was put together as a hot package with Chris Evans co-starring and director Jake Kasdan at the helm. Originally conceptualized as a streaming title, Red One was given a theatrical release by Amazon MGM after positive test scores.
