Vin Diesel is trying to move forward from the drama surrounding the cast of Fast 8, but all is quiet from Dwayne Johnson's side.
After The Rock's social media rant, in which he called an anonymous male co-star "chicken s--t," went viral, rumors have swirled regarding whom The Rock was targeting. Many speculated that it could've been Diesel, and since then both have somewhat alluded to that, with co-star Tyrese Gibson seemingly taking Diesel's side in the whole ordeal. Since then, the cast has tried to move on, even posting a heartfelt tribute to everyone on the forthcoming movie's Facebook page. The post called out all the major players, commending them for a job well done.
But in a Facebook Live video over the weekend, Diesel continued to praise his co-stars and fans, and even talked about Johnson specifically. "The reason we brought Dwayne Johnson into Fast 5 was because of you!" Diesel said in the video. "There was a girl named Jan Kelly who said, 'I would love to see you work together on screen.' So the role that was originally written for Tommy Lee Jones, we gave it to Dwayne and he shined in it."
