Vin Diesel asks The Rock to return

Lifestyle

Vin Diesel has asked Dwayne Johnson to rejoin Fast & Furious for the tenth and final instalment of the franchise.

This comes after a very public feud between the two Hollywood heavyweights.

In an Instagram post, Diesel said The Rock has “a very important role to play”, adding that his character Hobbs could not be played by anyone else.

“I hope you rise to the occasion and fulfil your destiny,” said Diesel who plays the lead role of Dominic Torreto.

The Rock joined the movie franchise as Agent Hobbs in Fast Five in 2011 – but the 49-year-old didn’t appear in the most recent film and has previously said he wouldn’t appear in future films.

Vin Diesel wrote to his 76 million followers that he wanted to fulfil his promise of a perfect ending to “Pablo” – referring to his late co-star Paul Walker, who died in 2013.

“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,” said the 54-year-old.

Calling him “little brother Dwayne”, he asked him not to leave “the franchise idle”.
