Anyone who knows a little about the philosophy with which Vin Diesel works in the Fast and Furious franchise knows that he considers the cast as part of a real family. What they are in fiction is treated in the same way in reality (we hope we do not meet them on the road) and is manifested through social networks, with birthday celebrations on the set and good words. But like in every family, there is always a black sheep that does not quite fit in, and that figure was represented by Dwayne Johnson, aka The Rock in Fast and Furious 8 . In principle, it all started from the anger of a former WWE wrestler due to the continuous delays that Vin Diesel caused each day of filming, leaving his caravan late. Vin Diesel explains his work with The Rock in the last interview he has granted with the Uproxx medium.
Although it all started when The Rock stated that some Fast and Furious companions were not professionals but chickens , it has been a while since everything seemed to be solved by the actor who will play Black Adam: “I wish him the best for him future (…) I realized how different our ways of taking filmmaking and our collaboration are (…) I am grateful to have achieved that clarity. Whether we go back to work or not ” . A few hours ago, Diesel shed some light on the reason for his behavior with the actor. “He was a difficult character to embody, the character of Hobbs,” said Diesel and then added his final motivation: “My focus at that time was a lot of heavy hand and love to help take that performance where it needed to be.”
Vin Diesel explains his work with The Rock as a motivation provoked to achieve the climate that his character needed. “Hobbs hits you like a ton of bricks. That’s something I’m proud of, that aesthetic. That took a lot of work, “said Diesel. The protagonist of the franchise assured that he would do anything to achieve the required performances in everything he is producing. With still two more films in the pipeline to close the Fast and Furious franchise … Will it be possible to see Hobbs and Toretto joining forces again?
