Here’s Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Mark Wahlberg on the set of Pain and Gain. Notice the difference in the photos. Taken from far away, The Rock looks built and when he does the head nod acknowledging your presence, it commands respect.

Wahlberg on the other hand. From far away he looks like a midget and when he acknowledges your presence with a fey little wave, he looks unsure of himself and you can’t help but laugh.

A deluge of promotional anecdotes have come as the premiere of Get Smart draws near. Surprisingly, all of them deal with kissing Steve Carell. First, Anne Hathaway described her infected kiss with Steve and now Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is talking about his kiss with Steve.

“One of the skills I had to learn and become proficient in is kissing a man. I had never kissed a man,” he told Pop Tarts at the Los Angeles premiere of “Get Smart” on Monday evening. “Will Smith did it in his movies, so did Jake Gyllenhaal, and I figured it was my time. So it was me and [Steve] Carell — fantastic.”

One of the hallmarks of a great actor is the willingness to make out with another man. At least that’s what Jake Gyllenhaal tells me everytime I see him. For the last time Jake, I don’t want to be a goddamn actor. Stop puckering your lips at me.
