Vin Diesel och Dwayne Johnson grävde som bekant ner stridsyxan efter sin lilla Fast & Furious-fejd, men för några veckor sedan visade Diesel hur mycket han saknade sin "familj" och bönade Johnson via Instagram om att återvända till franchisen en sista gång. Johnsons svar? Ett blankt nej och i en intervju med CNN avslöjar stjärnan hur irriterad han var över inläggets manipulativa drag, där han bland annat ogillar hur Diesel nämnde sina egna barn och Paul Walker i samband med inbjudningen:
"I told [Diesel] directly that I would not be returning to the franchise. I was firm yet cordial with my words and said that I would always be supportive of the cast and always root for the franchise to be successful, but that there was no chance I would return. Vin's recent public post was an example of his manipulation. I didn't like that he brought up his children in the post, as well as Paul Walker's death. Leave them out of it. We had spoken months ago about this and came to a clear understanding."
Johnson passade dock på önska Fast & Furious-teamet lycka till:
"My goal all along was to end my amazing journey with this incredible franchise with gratitude and grace. It's unfortunate that this public dialogue has muddied the waters. Regardless, I'm confident in the 'Fast' universe and its ability to consistently deliver for the audience... I truly wish my former co-stars and crew members the best of luck and success in the next chapter."
