Trivia: This film's budget reportedly ballooned due to Dwayne Johnson frequently showing up late to set.
Trivia: Star Dwayne Johnson reportedly pushed to have the film be shown in IMAX theatres after seeing Christopher Nolan's film "Oppenheimer" in IMAX. Johnson reasoned that "Red One" in IMAX would be "game over," and would make the film a huge hit. The film ended up bombing, and Johnson's comments were widely mocked online, with some labelling him "delusional" for trying to compare the releases of "Red One" and "Oppenheimer." (Though in his defence, he never directly compared the films themselves.)
