The Smashing Machine's Unconventional Casting
Audiences might have been surprised to see Dwayne Johnson in the lead role of Benny Safdie's film "The Smashing Machine."
In 2019, the Safdie brothers' thriller "Uncut Gems" received critical acclaim, with Adam Sandler delivering a brilliant performance in a serious role.

Jim Carrey’s forays into drama roles like “Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind” or “The Truman Show”have shown, comedians can excel in dramatic roles when given the chance.
The Safdies' ability to bring out impressive performances from unexpected actors is notable, and "The Smashing Machine" is no exception.
