On the set of The Fate of the Furious, Dwayne Johnson had a problem with one co-star in particular.
The actor once posted on social media to explain why he would never work with this particular actor again.
Dwayne Johnson, who is 50 years old, once talked about a fight he had with one of the regulars on Fast and Furious.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Dwayne Johnson talked about some drama that happened on the set of The Fate of the Furious, the eighth movie in the Fast and Furious franchise, which now has eleven movies.
A source says that tensions reached a peak during the last week of filming for the action movie.
In an Instagram post that has since been deleted, Dwayne Johnson said that some of his co-stars don’t “act like stand-up men and true professionals.”
He also said that the co-stars in question were “too chickenshit to do anything about it.” “before they were called “candyasses.”
In the interview, it is said that the unknown co-star Dwayne Johnson was talking about was Vin Diesel, 55, who became famous after playing Dominic Toretto.
Soon, people started to notice that the two stars never seemed to be on set together.
When Johnson was asked about this, he said:
That is correct.
We were not in any scenes together,
he confirmed.
Dwayne Johnson said that the reason they had a fight over the Instagram post was because of “fundamental differences” in their work lives.
Vin and I had a few discussions,
the Jumanji star began,
including an important face-to-face in my trailer.
What I came to realise is that we have a fundamental difference in philosophies on how we approach movie-making and collaborating.
It took me some time, but I’m grateful for that clarity. Whether we work together again or not,” he concluded.
When asked if he would come back for the next movie in the series, Johnson said,
I’m not quite sure.
Right now, I’m concentrating on making the spinoff as good as it can be,”
referring to Hobbs and Shaw (2019) starring Jason Statham.
Johnson said that he and Vin Diesel have different jobs but that he still wishes Vin Diesel “the best.”
I wish him all the best, and I harbour no ill will there, just because of the clarity we have.
Actually, you can erase that last part about ‘no ill will.’ We’ll just keep it with the clarity,
Johnson concluded.
Fast X, the next movie in the series, is set to come out in May 2023.
