Theo Clark Leber is the young actor appearing alongside Dwayne Johnson in Lizard Music, Benny Safdie’s adaptation of Daniel Pinkwater’s children’s book. He was photographed filming scenes with Johnson in Coney Island, Brooklyn, in October 2026. The story centres on a boy who discovers a secret late-night broadcast of lizards playing otherworldly music, placing Leber at the heart of the film’s sense of childhood wonder opposite Johnson’s eccentric elderly character, The Chicken Man.
