Dwayne Johnson BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Dwayne Johnson has been squarely in the spotlight this week, juggling high-profile entertainment milestones, charitable gestures, and ambitious business expansion. At the top of the news cycle, Johnson confirmed his voice role as Zeke, an accident-prone dik-dik, in Disney’s *Zootopia 2*, debuting just a month from now—a casting first revealed in the international trailer and widely covered by entertainment outlets such as FandomWire and Cinema Express. Also joining the animated sequel are notable voices from across Disney’s animated pantheon, adding to the film’s crossover appeal. While it’s too soon to gauge whether the sequel will match the billion-dollar success of the original, Disney is clearly stacking the deck with star power to try, and Johnson’s involvement as both crossover talent and box office draw is a critical part of that strategy. The film opens globally on November 26, according to Cinema Express, and Johnson’s participation—alongside the likes of Josh Gad, Auliʻi Cravalho, and Stephanie Beatriz—is being pitched by Disney as a major selling point.

On the business front, Johnson’s Teremana Tequila brand is aggressively expanding its global reach. The Drinks Business reports that Teremana is set to enter more than 20 new international markets—including Brazil, Spain, France, South Africa, Japan, and Indonesia—over the next year, a move facilitated by a partnership with Mast-Jägermeister. Johnson himself framed the expansion as a mission to share "Mana"—his term for good energy and gratitude—across the world. Given that Teremana already outsold George Clooney’s Casamigos last year, this latest push could solidify Johnson’s reputation as a serious player in the spirits business, not just a celebrity endorser.

In the social and emotional realm, Johnson recently shared a heartfelt Instagram post—as covered by AOL—about fulfilling autograph requests for terminally ill fans, including a photograph personalized for a man named Abel, who is battling brain cancer with an eight-month prognosis. The post, which moved his followers to tears, highlighted Johnson’s ongoing rapport with fans and his willingness to use his platform for personal, human connections. No viral beefs or controversies clouded his week—instead, the content leaned into his brand of motivational transparency and empathy.

There were no major public appearances—red carpets, talk shows, or high-wattage premieres—to report in the past several days, nor were there any unverified rumors or gossip making waves in the mainstream press. All developments this week underscore two things: Johnson’s continued ability to blend blockbuster entertainment with savvy entrepreneurship, and his enduring appeal as a celebrity who—at least publicly—leads with heart. The only speculation buzzing among entertainment outlets is whether *Zootopia 2* can break records, but that’s a question only the box office will answer. For now, it’s clear—across movies, business, and social media—Dwayne Johnson is a one-man multinational brand, still very much in his prime.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
