Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt do a deep dive with Awardist host Gerrad Hall on their new drama, 'The Smashing Machine,' from his transformation into UFC pioneer Mark Kerr and his concerns about still being seen as the Rock to his character realizing he needed to go to rehab for his drug addiction and the personal place Johnson went for that scene, and Blunt's character Dawn trying to escape torment and their toxic relationship. The lively conversation also includes a look back at their first movie together, 'Jungle Cruise,' Johnson revealing who he wanted to play in 'The Devil Wears Prada 2,' and more. Plus, Gerrad and EW Sr. Writer Joey Nolfi and Sr. Editor Joyce Eng discuss the new name for the SAG Awards, the Actor Awards, and Gerrad debriefs on the Governors Awards.
