Some celebrities can hide behind a large pair of sunglasses and pass unbothered through Los Angeles, but it's considerably harder to blend in when your'e Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, and San Franciscans are somewhat less discrete than Angelenos when a bona fide movie star waltzes through town. So, as the Rock was on Nob Hill to film the HBO show Ballers, which is about a high-profile sports agent and which I haven't watched but feel safe in assuming is like Jerry Maguire meets Entourage meets WrestleMania, tourists and local fans have been going a little nuts.
Sadly, you've missed the open casting call for the show, and today is the last day of local filming according to Hoodline, with a shoot to take place at Pine and Leavenworth.
And earlier this week, atop Nob Hill for filming at the Fairmont Hotel, the Rock recorded a greeting with one fan with his usual dramatic flare on Instagram.
"Well, I tried to be an asshole but as you see from his caption below it didn't go quite as planned," writes Johnson, who is probably just constitutionally not an asshole. "After this pic, he was so happy, he skipped away. Literally, skipped away. Probably the coolest part of my day. I' grateful to have the greatest fans in the world. Good to meet you Lucas. Thanks for being such a cool fan. #SkipGameStrong"
HBO's Ballers returns in July.
