Johnson’s apparent traffic stop occurred after he appeared on the Hollywood Walk of Fame to support his friend Emily Blunt, as she and The Devil Wears Prada’s Stanley Tucci celebrated the movie’s new sequel by getting stars on the Walk of Fame. Blunt’s husband John Krasinski, as well as famous friends Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr. and Meryl Streep, also attended the ceremony.

“Every single day, knowing Emily, as many of us do, that is one grateful woman who will wake up feet on the ground, being grateful about every moment,” Johnson said of Blunt during the ceremony. The pair famously became fast friends when they made the 2021 movie Jungle Cruise together and also costarred in last year’s The Smashing Machine. “I feel like when you’re grateful about every moment, that then leads to the thing I think we all look for, which is joy and peace of mind, and those are all the things I think that make up Emily and so much more,” he added.
