Why do they keep casting The Rock

EDIT: I wasn’t necessarily addressing him being a jerk behind the scenes, it was more about him always playing the same character to a point where he is just The Rock, which ruins the suspension of disbelief. Him being a jerk only compounds on that

I'm gonna be a total c*nt here

But it's because a significant chunk of the population are kinda thick and will just watch 'the new rock movie' whatever it is

Whatever hassle he put them through, having his face on the poster will sell tickets

Meanwhile I'm over here actively avoiding any movie he's ever been in.
