Vin Diesel took to the streets of social media with a public plea to Dwayne Johnson to return for Fast 10.
You may recall, Dwayne exited the franchise after landing a deal for his standalone flick, Hobbs & Shaw, and boy did it cause a rift and a stink within the Fast family…especially with Tyrese.
The actor and singer publicly slammed Dwayne during many of his online meltdowns and blamed “The People’s Champ” for his financial trouble and turmoil.
In one post, Tyrese wrote:
FYI I was never mad at The Rock – I was just mad that he was “pitched” an idea privately and said yes to it without thinking of what I’m dealing with personally I’m almost broke paying legal fees and is doing what we committed to doing for the #FastFans and #FastFamily cause the fast is tradition it’s not just another Movie Fast was created to COUNTER images of racism to counter that WE ARE NOT ONE RACE…… So the rock how does it feel bro?…. going home to your daughter every night…. it’s was 60 days before I seen my baby….. and all I asked you to do “privately” was NOT accept a role that would deeply effect us all…….
You are simply NOT the people’s champ….. you are a selfish champ….. I’m almost broke swimming in legal fees CAA tried but couldn’t book me anything cause my ex wife killed my reputation so no one wants to hire me.. It’s not about I know I know I know right?? Says the man on the Forbes list.. Make sure you kiss your 2 daughters when you get home I wish I could but I can’t afford to fight for my baby anymore so they’re likely going to take her away……. Thanks Dewayne see you guys in 2020 and I will not delete this post cause the TRUTH of selfish people in Hollywood needs to be mentioned……………… to this day Dewayne has NOT called me back as u see me crying every 3 hours over my baby know #ShaylaRocks
Now, that the dust on that nonsense has settled, Vin Diesel is shooting his shot at Dwayne by reminding him of a promise made to the late Paul Walker to finish the franchise strong.
My little brother Dwayne… the time has come. 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.
I told you years ago that I was going to fulfill my promise to Pablo. I swore that we would reach and manifest the best Fast in the finale that is 10!
I say this out of love… but you must show up, do not leave the franchise idle you have a very important role to play.
Hobbs can’t be played by no other. I hope that you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny.
See the original post below.
I agree with Vin Diesel on one thing…that franchise needs Dwayne Johnson.
They tried to move on without him by scooping John Cena and with all love and due respect…the assignment was incomplete.
Do you think Dwayne should return for Fast 10? And do you think he actually will?
