Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson's feud

Diesel and Johnson's feud is one of the most talked-about celebrity disputes. The difference between the Fast and Furious co-stars started during their time working together in the famous franchise.

The feud first came to light in August 2016 when The Rock shared a social media post, calling out his Fast X male co-stars. However, he didn't mention the name of the actor in the since-deleted post. But later it was confirmed that the actor he was mentioning was Vin.

Since then, both the actors have had a very public feud as they went on to call each other out through interviews and social media posts.

In 2021, their feud took a major turn when Vin shared an Instagram post for The Rock, asking him to join the Fast and Furious franchise.

“My little brother Dwayne… the time has come,” he wrote. “The world awaits the finale of Fast 10. As you know, my children refer to you as Uncle Dwayne in my house. There is not a holiday that goes by that they and you don’t send well wishes… but the time has come. Legacy awaits.”

But the big surprise came in 2024 when Dwayne, who first refused to return to the franchise, made a cameo appearance in a post-credit scene in 2023's Fast X movie.

Putting his past conflicts to rest, the Black Adam actor officially announced his return as Hobbs in 2023.
