Att världens största filmstjärna (The Rock), Dwayne Johnson, och Fast & Furious-lorden Vin Diesel inte riktigt kommer överens, det vet vi. Det har vi vetat länge. Tydligen var de nära att slåss under inspelningen av den senaste Fast-filmen och enligt The Rock vet han inte om han kommer att återvända. Detta eftersom han inte riktigt gillar sina manliga motspelare i Universals superpopulära filmföljetong. Detta sades nyligen i en intervju med Rollingstone:
"There's no other franchise that gets my blood boiling more than this one. An incredible hard working crew. Universal Studios Entertainment has been great partners as well. My female co-stars are always amazing and I love 'em. My male co-stars however are a different story. Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don't. The ones that don't are too chicken shit to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses!
Vin and I had a few discussions, including an important face-to-face in my trailer. And what I came to realize is that we have a fundamental difference in philosophies on how we approach moviemaking and collaborating. It took me some time, but I'm grateful for that clarity. Whether we work together again or not."
Han fortsätter sedan med att berätta att han som sagt inte riktigt vet om han vill återvända till de två sista filmerna i serien (Fast 9 och Fast 10):
"I'm not quite sure... Right now I'm concentrating on making the spinoff Hobbs and Shaw, co-starring Jason Statham as good as it can be... But I wish him all the best, and I harbor 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."
