May 21st, 2015.
It was warm, it was sunny, and I brushed off a couple of semi-business meetings that I was able to vaguely imply I had something more important to do than be at. And so I found myself in Leicester Square on a beautiful sunny afternoon in London's Leicester Square for an event that was both a World Premiere and a coinciding World Record Attempt, both featuring actor and former wrestler (and, once, Tooth Fairy) Dwayne (formerly 'The Rock') Johnson.
Here's how it went down:
Eventually, the Dude from Guinness came back with his verdict on the number of complying photos taken in 3 minutes.... and....
So... that was quite a lot of fun, actually. Good times. All the best to all involved, and I've finally photographed The Rock after missing him at two prior premieres I couldn't attend.
I still haven't photographed Ryan Gosling, Gal Gadot, and composer John Williams yet, though...
Still, it's another entry for the almost-at-300-events behemoth that is my accumulated "Archive of Movie Premieres".
Until next time!
