On the other hand, Latukefu, 36, took to Instagram to praise Johnson for the sitcom, which is based on Johnson’s real-life events.
“Quick story: I’d burst a blood vessel in my eye while training and was on the way to the doctors and got a text (don’t know how he got my number but.. it’s Dwayne)” he captioned.
“Hey Uso (Samoan for brother) its DJ, let me know if you have two minutes to talk”
Me: *thinking* eyeball or Dwayne, eyeball or Dwayne..
“hey DJ, yeah I’m free!” We spoke and he broke the good news.
DJ: “I wanted to be the first to say congratulations, you got the role”
