Is The Rock too strong for his co-stars?

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson may be one of the most charismatic men in Hollywood, but it doesn't change the fact that he's freakishly intimidating in stature. And if you've watched any of Ballers on HBO this season, you're aware that a finely tailored suit does little to make Johnson look less imposing. Even while playing mild-mannered money manager "Spencer Strasmore," the man exudes force.

So what's it like playing the Rock's on-screen nemesis? Actor London Brown, who recently inherited that job description, stopped by Yahoo Studios to answer this question.

Brown plays "Reggie" on Ballers, a mouthy freeloader and the consummate thorn in the side of "Spencer." Most of Brown's scenes involve his character antagonizing the Rock's character, to the Nth degree.

In Episode 3 (Spoiler Alert), the rift between these two characters comes to a head when "Spencer" loses his cool and gets physical with "Reggie." For the 155-pound Brown, this meant getting shoved by Johnson, an opportunity he wasn't about to pawn off on a trained stunt double, mind you.

It wasn't until this moment that Brown fully understood Johnson's strength, which he described to Yahoo in amusing detail.
