Dwayne Johnson Brings Entire Family to ‘Moana’ Premiere, Opens Up About Being a ‘Proud Girl Dad’

Family clearly comes first for Dwayne Johnson, even on one of Hollywood's biggest nights. The actor turned Disney's star-studded premiere into a full-fledged family celebration.

Dwayne Johnson is a proud and doting dad. The "Jumanji" alum stepped out for the premiere of Disney's live-action reimagining of the 2016 classic "Moana" on July 7, turning the event into a heartwarming family affair.

Johnson was joined by his three daughters, Simone, 24, Jasmine, 10, and Tiana, 8, along with his wife, Lauren Hashian, all of whom turned heads on the red carpet in coordinated style.

The actor cut a sharp figure in a sheer white long-sleeved shirt, unbuttoned at the collar to reveal a chain with a Manaiakalani fishhook pendant — a nod to his "Moana" character Maui — paired with off-white tailored trousers and black leather loafers.

He layered a traditional green maile leaf lei with a white flower lei over his shoulders and finished the look with round tinted sunglasses. Jasmine and Tiana twinned in matching turquoise dresses featuring a cheerful tropical floral print in coral and yellow.

Each added a fresh flower lei of her own — Tiana chose vibrant purple and white orchids, while Jasmine tucked a single orange hibiscus blossom behind her ear. Both girls wore their long hair down in natural curls, rounding out their coordinated, island-ready looks.

Simone opted for a fitted black slip dress with a thigh-high slit and delicate straps, layering a white flower lei over the ensemble.

She carried a black textured clutch and accessorized with a gold watch, rings, and a bracelet, letting her dark hair fall in loose waves past her shoulders. Black strappy heels completed her look.

Lauren stunned in a striking black-and-white patterned gown with a fan-like print, featuring an asymmetric one-shoulder neckline, a fitted bodice, a thigh-high slit, and a dramatic train that trailed onto the carpet. She wore her hair in a sleek high ponytail, along with black strappy heels.

The family's celebration extended beyond the red carpet, with several loved ones joining in, including Johnson's mother, Ata, his ex-wife Dany Garcia — with whom he shares Simone — Dany's husband, Dave Rienzi, and Simone's girlfriend, Tatyanna Dumas.

Later in the evening, Johnson took the stage alongside his daughters and his co-star Catherine Laga'aia, who plays the titular role, for a traditional Samoan taualuga performance.

The 54-year-old actor reflected on the significance of showcasing his heritage on such a massive platform. "The emotions I'm feeling are gratitude and also, I'm careful with this word, but just real pride," he shared.

"I'm proud of our Polynesian culture to be represented on the biggest platform in the world, which is the big screen. With Disney, it's just a massive company that knows how to serve up families around the world."

Describing himself as a "proud girl dad," Johnson grew emotional watching his children perform alongside Laga'aia, whom he praised as "our Moana."

Speaking about the 19-year-old Australian newcomer, he added, "This is her first [film] and there's so much pressure on her, and I was so proud of her and it was so cool to see this Hollywood Bowl."

Reflecting on the experience of sharing a stage with his three children, the "Hobbs & Shaw" star explained that lifting them up, whether publicly or privately, remains a top priority.

"It means a lot to me that I'm able to uplift them in my own small way as their dad," he explained. "But also, and we have this talk daily, which is, 'Hey, you belong in every room and you belong at every table. And I'm here to support you. And when things go sideways, I'm here to support you.'"
