Last year, Wayne Johnson called out certain male cast members of the Fate of the Furious movie for being “candy asses.” However, it was later revealed he was specifically referring to of Vin Diesel, who we later snubbed in this thank you list because the actor was often late to set and “the crew felt Vin’s arrogance was out of control.”
The two actors were reportedly kept apart during the press tour for the movie, and I’m pretty sure they never appear in the same frame and the entire film.
Now, according to TMZ, Vin Diesel and The Rock have “buried the hatchet.”
Vin and Dwayne have met privately several times since animosity between them exploded on the set of The Fate of the Furious. We’re told they are “good” and both are “1000% in” for the next flick.
The sources are opening up about the feud… one explaining it was all over “real estate.” In movie language, real estate is all about how much an actor shines — who gets the best action scenes, who gets the hottest girl, who shows off their body more, and who gets the most face time. It became a big issue for Dwayne and Vin, but ultimately, Dwayne acknowledged it was Vin’s movie — he’s listed #1 on the call sheet.
Apparently, there is no problem that money cannot solve.
