>Sources say the two tough-guy actors are being kept from one another as the FAST team continues its press tour in the run-up to the F. Gary Gray-helmed film hitting theaters April 14. "They're keeping them separated as much as possible," says an insider.
>That sequestering will be most obvious today when Universal brings footage of the film to CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where Diesel, Charlize Theron and the rest of the cast will be on hand to promote the eighth installment in the $4 billion franchise. That is minus Johnson, who is already back on the set of BALLERS in Miami. But just 12 hours earlier, Johnson was in Las Vegas, participating in Paramount's BAYWATCH presentation at CinemaCon. And Monday night, he introduced Sony's JUMANJI at the high-profile exhibition showcase.
>Universal downplayed any simmering tensions and said the two actors simply have been on different continents throughout the tour. But sources say that the CinemaCon scheduling could have been easily accommodated.
Its bullshit, fake controversy to try and hype the movie.
In reality they have them in double the places promoting the movie. Its win win.
Joshua Gonzalez
i heard the whole beef thing started over vin deisel taking them all out for drinks on him but they had to drink coronas or else
Bentley Wright
someone post the webm
Joshua Sullivan
Vin gonna have a people's elbow comin his way if he don't watch it.
Andrew Ross
Makes sense. Diesel is a fucking nerd, and The Rock is a jock. They are natural enemies.
Ian Mitchell
its stem's from Vince's insecurity compared to Rock. Rock is bigger and more muscular, which is why the cinematography tried to downplay the difference in bulk
Adrian Myers
>According to the attendants of the exclusive movie screening that took place at CinemaCon, Diesel and Johnson don't share the screen on the movie a single time.
This seems odd.
Jordan Sullivan
Didn't Rock revitalize the franchise when he was brought on.
Juan Cook
kek
Kevin Martinez
For most of the movie Vin doesn't seem to share the screen with any of the other stars, since he's just getting hunted, so it's not that odd. It's not like The Rock would get the scene where somebody walks up to Vin and tearfully talks him out of it all.
Gabriel Barnes
underatted
Colton Sullivan
In that webm they are standing next to eachother and talking without looking at eachother. It's a tough guy thing. It is not meant to be an optical illusion to make dwayne seem smaller than vince. It's just a poorly shot tough-guy segment.
Angel Adams
I will never not laugh at this shot
Grayson Cruz
He did. Maybe that's the problem. Vin might be jealous that Rock is stealing the spotlight from him. There have been talks of a F&F spinoff series of movies starring The Rock.
Liam Miller
I dont think the Rock is even capable of hating anyone
Julian Thompson
Yep.
Dom could pretty much be phased out by now. Hobbs is already the de-facto leader of the team in the new movie and he even has his own Brian in Jason Statham's character.
Connor Thomas
This is fake as shit. They are just hyping up some WWE match to coincide with the new Fast Movie.
Logan Harris
>they are standing next to eachother and talking without looking at eachother. It's a tough guy thing.
It's an autist* thing.
Jayden James
Not gonna lie, this drama is kind of exciting.
Tyler Reyes
either way, it wasn't meant to be some sort of optical illusion trickery like people tend to imply. They are meant to look like they are standing next to eachother and not facing eachother.
Adam Roberts
Based Rocky working the Fat and Furious smarks.
Zachary Torres
dont forget gal gadot trying to be all sexy in bikini
Austin Flores
It's a publicity stunt, guys. Considering the plot.
Nicholas Nguyen
underrated
Anthony Stewart
It probably stems from Vince feeling immensely irritated and depressed every time he walks on set and Paul isn't there.
Jonathan Baker
Spoilers out yet?
Christopher Roberts
What an embarrassment. Director should feel ashamed he actually thought the audience would fall for this bullshit.
Jonathan Powell
Wait, they're not the same person?
Landon Johnson
I legitimately laughed out loud the first time I saw that. The ridiculousness with the framing of it all just took me by surprise.
Bentley Brooks
>vanilla midget
Get off my board and never return
Jaxon Price
I guarantee Vin is the asshole in this situation
Aaron Torres
how do people actually think there facing each other, there clearly next to each other
get your eyes checked folks
Aaron Reed
That's the dumbest excuse I've heard. No tough guy act involves not stepping up and looking the other in the eye. If anything, that sounds like some beta behavior.
Lincoln Morgan
It's not an excuse. It's literally what that scene is meant to convey.
Eli Jenkins
le epic marketing story
Logan Long
CUT MY LIFE INTO PIECES
Elijah Sullivan
it's a lovers tiff. two big beefy guys getting all sweaty and hot during filming need some "stress relief", thats how it all started i bet
Charles Butler
He literally is standing next to him while he looks inside the garage at a car.
Justin Martinez
what if vin betrayed them just like in the movie??
Carter Stewart
is some cultures looking someone directly in the eye is a sign of aggression, so they are probably from one of those cultures, also gorillas do this.
Lincoln Young
I guarantee this bullshit is made up simply to generate discussion.
Xavier Bennett
I need to see this
Kevin Long
Dwaynes tweets about Vin were way too clumsy to be a designed publicity thing I think
Jace Hill
what did he say?
Nathan Carter
bro fast and the future redesigned guerilla marketing, they are the best at what they do
Hudson Harris
At least not everyone is a retard.
Daniel James
The Rock's ears look tiny near the end of that. It's unsettling.
Hudson Hall
Vin is a manlet who plays Dungeons and Dragons.
Rock is 6'2" who has succeeded at everything in life and is currently the highest paid actor in the world.
Do the math, lads.
Robert Wright
I kinda feel bad that it's all going to come crashing down once Jumanji and Baywatch ruin his reputation.
Michael Sanchez
The continuing success of this series is surprising. Usually sequels aren't as successful as the original and peter out. It's not obvious to me why this series would be the exception.
David Baker
Chekt and kekt
Benjamin Sullivan
maybe Vin couldnt handle the Rock's banter
Christian Diaz
>They're fighting we know this because they're not attached to to fucking hip 24/7 checkmate fucko
or maybe they don't like to fly around all the fucking time.
And they fucking admitted right on the OP that Dwayne is filming 3+ films, so nobody should be surprised that he doesn't want to fly around all the fucking time to do what the rest of the crew can is already doing.
Owen Foster
His reputation is basically he stars in mostly mediocre forgettable movies, so no worries there.
Liam Edwards
...
Matthew Hill
Nigga you seen Tooth Fairy?
Rock's fucking immortal
Ryder Moore
vin diesel would kick dwanes head in
Ryder Foster
Literally sounds like wrestling.
AND I SMELLLLLLLLL-LALALALA-LOW
WHAT TH-
you get the idea
Nicholas Russell
vin diesel looks like that yellow rapist guy from sin city
Charles Cox
But not all in one year.
Isaac Nelson
Vin looks like a beluga whale in that pic
Cameron Rodriguez
Well if he has no scenes with Vin in FF8, then he must be talking about another actor. So it could be Jason Statham, Scott Eastwood, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Kurt Russell.
Statham or Eastwood, maybe?
Leo Taylor
Bald gay men. Just some fag drama
Ethan Cox
It's literally autism
Kayden Bailey
B-but family ;_;
Honestly only white trash, spics, and nigs watch these movies right?
Sebastian Young
Reportedly it's Diesel. They don't have 1-on-1 scenes but they have scenes together with the group.
Rumor has it Vin was constantly late and a bit of a douchebag to everyone because he's got creative control over script stuff now.
Brody Ortiz
God damn I love e-drama. Rock would fuck Vins shit up
Blake Brooks
they are both homos, that is indeed true.
could hulk hogan not drive stick?
Charles Garcia
Definitely, fast 7 had Walker's death that hype it up to gross over $1 billion
Nathaniel Kelly
The Rock's a big guy
Evan Thompson
Dwayne is a solid 7 inches taller than Vin and probably 50-60 pounds heavier. Plus Dwayne was a standout football player at U Miami where as Vin is just a regular guy who likes to lift. Additionally, WWE is was more physical than most people realize it is.
Hunter Jones
OK makes sense, Diesel seems like he might be a massive douchebag now his franchise has blown up, especially to someone like The Rock, who he can't even try to intimidate. Maybe Vin will have The Rock's character killed off in FF9 then.
Cooper Torres
Bad breakup
Oliver Ross
Yeah, but have you seen Riddick? Or Babylon AD? How about The Pacifier? Vin would bring baby dick Dwayne to his knees just by squeezing his roid shrinked nuts
Cameron Fisher
but they're almost like family to each other
Charles Fisher
this, the story is supposed to be diesel vs rock, so of course they do this shite
Easton Cruz
those will only make him stronger
Benjamin Rodriguez
Here's hoping.
Hunter Ward
I heard they could have any beer they wanted
Gabriel Ramirez
If it's staged, maybe they will have a big fake fight during some tv interview, just before the movie opens.
Gabriel Clark
as long as its a corona
Gabriel Cruz
He's gotto be sticking it out here. He's more fit than me and i can only get my gut out that far if i really push it.
Bentley Ramirez
Vin Diesel - big guy The Rock - small guy
Julian Wright
I feel like killing Paul Walker for publicity was a bit much
Hunter Ortiz
>when you can have any drink as long as it's corona
