(CNN) Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson wants to do his part to make production sets safer.

While promoting his upcoming movie "Red Notice," Johnson told Variety that he will no longer allow real guns on the set of any of his Seven Bucks film productions after the fatal shooting on the set of "Rust," which killed cinematographer Halyna Hutchins.

"We're going to switch over to rubber guns, and we're going to take care of it in post[-production]. We're not going to worry about the dollars. We won't worry about what it costs," he said.

"I was heartbroken. We lost a life. My heart goes out to her family and everybody on set. I've known Alec, too, for a very long time," Johnson added.

Johnson's comments come amid growing calls to ban functional firearms on Hollywood sets.
