Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has friends in high places.

The “Smashing Machine” actor has revealed how he knew Osama bin Laden was killed before then-President Barack Obama even announced the news to the world in May 2011.

Johnson, 53, explained that he has “a friend of a friend” who gave him a call at the time to relay the news, although the “Black Adam” star refused to name any names.

“The call was like, ‘Hey, this thing happened,'” Johnson said during a recent appearance on the “Awards Chatter” podcast. “And I said, ‘Okay, wonderful news.'”

“I was told on the call that the president at that time was going to make his speech in 20 minutes or whatever,” he continued. “I said, ‘Okay, great.'”

Johnson, however, jumped the gun and put out a tweet celebrating bin Laden’s death before Obama had a chance to make his public announcement.

Just got word that will shock the world – Land of the free…home of the brave DAMN PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!

“So 20 minutes go by, and at about the 25th minute, I tweet this,” he recalled. “Then I get a second call, and the call is, ‘Yeah, the president didn’t go on yet.’ And I went, ‘Oh s–t.'”

The “Fast & Furious” star’s tweet in question was shared on the night of May 1, 2011, the same day the 9/11 terrorist mastermind was shot and killed by SEAL Team Six in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

“Just got word that will shock the world,” Johnson wrote at the time. “Land of the free…home of the brave DAMN PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!”
