EXCLUSIVE: Dwayne Johnson Reveals What It's Like to Kiss Zac Efron, Addresses 2020 Presidential Run Remarks

The action star tells ET that his 'Baywatch' co-star has "soft lips."

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson isn't ruling out a presidential run in 2020, but first, he's got to promote his upcoming movie, Baywatch, co-starring Zac Efron.

While at the premiere of the TV series-turned-movie in Miami, Florida, on Saturday, Johnson recalled to ET's Kevin Frazier what it was like to kiss Efron underwater in a hilarious Baywatch scene.

"Millions and millions of young ladies, and ladies in general, want to know... His lips were like if you have a bottle and you shatter it on the ground -- that shattered glass," the 45-year-old action star quipped, adding that his handsome co-star actually has "soft lips."

Efron also dished to ET about whether Johnson was a better kisser than his other Baywatch co-star, Alexandra Daddario. "She was a better kisser for sure," the 29-year-old heartthrob noted. "But it was funnier to look up and see Dwayne's face."

Also at the premiere, Johnson addressed his recent interview with GQ magazine that led some of his fans to speculate that he might be planning to campaign for president in a few years. "I think anything's possible, right? This is America," he said of running for the office. "What has been so flattering over the past week -- and really humbling and very eye-opening -- is the amount of American people who actually want to see this happen."

Still playing coy about a possible political career, he added, "I don't think I would be a great president, [because] politics is not my business and I'm not a politician."

"I can tell you I feel that what people are responding to, I think with me, is that I do a pretty good job in terms of leadership and in terms of galvanizing a lot of people and bringing them together to get a job done," Johnson continued. "It's one of the qualities, yes, of a president."

While he hasn't announced a run for office just yet, Johnson is the king of the beach in Baywatch, which hits theaters on May 25.
