Vin Diesel has publicly urged Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson to return to the Fast & Furious franchise for the upcoming 10th film, so that he can play his cop Luke Hobbs after he started their feud and Johnson pulled out of the franchise for his spin-off film series Hobbs and. Shaw with Jason Statham.
Sharing a still with Johnson from Fast Five, which marked his entry into the action film franchise in 2011, Diesel wrote on Instagram, “My little brother Dwayne. The time has come. The world is waiting for the conclusion of Fast 10. As you know, my kids refer to you in my house as Uncle Dwayne. There is no holiday after which he and you don’t send wishes. But the time has come. The legacy awaits. I told you years ago that I was going to keep my promise to Pablo. I swore we would reach and reveal the best fast in the finale of 10. I say this with love. But you have to show, don’t leave the franchise idle, you have a very important role to play. No one else can play Hobbes. I hope you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny (sic).”

Reports of the pair’s feud first surfaced in 2016 when they filmed the eighth film in the franchise, The Fate of the Furious. During the final week of filming, The Rock posted on social media that some people on set “treat themselves as stand-up men and true professionals, while others don’t. Those who aren’t very chicken are there anyway.” There’s nothing to do about it. When you watch this movie next April and it’s like I’m not acting in some of these scenes and my blood boils – you’re right.”
