Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson Officiates A Wedding For ‘Prank It Fwd’ Web Series

Defy Media’s Prank It Fwd has evolved into a showcase of the best “positive pranks” the Internet has to offer. The popular web series, which recently returned for a second straight April Fools Day filled with heartwarming practical jokes, has added to its collection with a new video in which Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson officiates a surprise wedding for Screen Junkies correspondent Nick Mundy.

Mundy, who in addition to his work with Screen Junkies also stars in the Comedy Central web series Nothing to Report, became friendly with Johnson after infamously fawning over him during a 2013 press junket. Since then, Mundy has interviewed Johnson several more times, and he planned to sit down with him again at a junket for the upcoming film San Andreas.

Defy Media, which runs both Screen Junkies and Prank It Fwd, had other ideas. The digital production company set up a wedding altar at the junket and brought in Mundy’s fiancee Dilara, who agreed to marry her beau right there. Johnson, who is a legally ordained officiant in California, led the ceremony. Is there anything he can’t do?

This isn’t the first time Defy Media has used Prank It Fwd to pull a “positive prank” on one of its own. In 2014, when the program first launched, Smosh Games host Jovenshire got the chance to meet his celebrity crush, Emma Watson.

Defy’s latest prank is another strong addition to the smile factory that is Prank It Fwd. And Mundy will probably go down in history, too. As far as we can tell, he’s the only person to ever get married while wearing American flag pants.
