Summary Red One's budget has ballooned to $250 million, due in part to behavior by Dwayne Johnson, a new report claims.

The report claims that an executive Johnson's Seven Bucks production company mismanaged the production.
Dwayne Johnson is at the center of a damning new report, which claims that his unprofessionalism and tardiness has had a negative impact on Red One, his upcoming Christmas movie. Directed by Jake Kasdan, Red One stars Johnson and Chris Evans, with the former playing the commander of the E.L.F. Task Force as he deals with a surprise abduction from the North Pole. The film, which hails from Prime Video, is expected to release later this year after reportedly suffering delays due to last year's WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
As the Red One release date approaches, a report from The Wrap claims that the film's budget has now ballooned to a whopping $250 million, due in part to Johnson's unprofessionalism. According to the report, insiders close to the production claim that Johnson was regularly late to set, sometimes by as much as eight hours. The report alleges that this is nothing new for the actor, and that he has become notorious for extreme tardiness. In addition, the report claims that Red One has also suffered from mismanagement due to producer Hiram Garcia, who leads Johnson's Seven Bucks production company.
