Jax is feeling mixed emotions,” a source told PEOPLE at the time. “He knows this is ultimately the right decision but is sad that things ended up the way they have. It's an emotional month for him and he's trying to stay strong for his son.
He's a great dad. Great dad, terrible husband, Cartwright told PEOPLE. Adding that they “will always put Cruz first and are going to work towards a healthy co-parenting relationship."
It's going to take some time, she said. "Still, things are very raw between us, but for the most part, I do know if I needed something, if Cruz needed something, I could call him and he would be there for us."
Speaking exclusively to Extra about his upcoming role in the live-action version of Disney's Moana, the former pro wrestler, 52, shared that his beefed-up look was part muscles, part custom-made suit.
“That's a suit that took a long time to put on,” Johnson said of the larger-than-usual body seen in on-set photos of him in costume as the demigod Maui. “So, I'm so happy you said, 'You bulked up,' because when you say, 'You bulked up,' that means you couldn't tell."
That is a couple of hours every day of transforming, putting that on. We shot outside and when those pictures surfaced, I was like, ‘S---, we got caught, ’cause we were putting up, like, walls so there was no paparazzi, Johnson told Extra. "But they got into boats and started shooting pictures. So, but I'm happy you liked it. I can't wait. The movie comes out in 2026."
The photos Johnson was referring to showed him dressed in traditional Hawaiian attire while walking on set on Nov. 20 — his bare chest and tribal tattoos were front and center as he wore a grass skirt.
“My daughters, all three of my daughters were there. That was the first time we'd all been together in a public place before,” he told the outlet of having his family present for Moana 2’s premiere in Hawaii.
“That was beautiful. My mom was there. It's our culture. I grew up here, got in trouble here 15 miles up the road. My grandfather's buried here. My grandfather inspired the character of Maui,” Johnson continued. “It all came together.”
The actor added that he and Maui have quite a few things in common, especially them both being "egotistical” and “loud” with a “big mouth."
I have a handle on who Maui is, Johnson added. "I know the voice, I know the man, I know his inspiration. I can access things. I got it."
“The moment I stepped on set … as live-action Maui, I realized right away, ‘Oh, wow, this is different,’ in terms of this is real flesh-and-blood and skin-and-bones,” Johnson said. “It becomes real all of the sudden. It was almost like getting in my grandfather's skin and what that was like.”
Model AgeAuli'i Cravalho, who voices Moana in animated movies, will serve as an executive producer for the upcoming film. Newcomer Catherine Laga'aia will play the character onscreen in the live-action remake. Thomas Kail, who won Tonys for directing In The Heights and Hamilton on Broadway, directed the live-action film.

Footage from the “I Remember Everything” singer’s Tacoma Dome concert in Washington this past weekend surfaced online after a fan recorded the 28-year-old pausing his performance to call out an unruly person.
After picking up the object, the country singer sent a glaring look in the direction where it came from as he made his way over to the mic to make an announcement.
He gave it a few moments to see if anyone would come forward, or if others would point the person out. Unable to find the individual, Bryan delivered a stern warning instead.
“And if you guys do know who threw it, you need to get ‘em outta here, if we ever find out who did it,” he continued before resuming his show.
Though it was unclear as to why the fan threw the item onstage, Bryan has faced backlash as of late regarding his breakup with former girlfriend Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia.
