The actor, who is reprising his role as demigod Maui in the sequel to Disney's animated musical adventure film Moana, tells us how excited Jasmine, eight, and six-yearold Tiana were to visit the studio.
And his wife Lauren Hashian revealed on Instagram last week that their children even voiced their own characters for the film.
Dwayne, 52, also has an older daughter from his first marriage: Simone, 23, a professional wrestler known as Ava Raine.
The star made his mark in Hollywood with roles in The Mummy Returns, Baywatch and the Jumanji franchise, but says this role is special to him because it reflects his Samoan heritage.
He also reveals that this won't be the last we see of his character...
Dwayne, your youngest daughter was a huge fan of the first film. What does she think about her dad returning as Maui?
"She's excited. Both my little girls are, actually. It was great because they got to sit in on some of my voiceover sessions for this one.
"They already know some of the songs. They're super-excited to see the whole thing. I'm so excited to share it with them.
"As a father, it means a lot to me for my girls and all young girls and boys to enjoy something that is full of positive empowerment.
