The Rock Confirms His Return To The Fast & Furious Franchise
In Fast X, The Rock made a cameo appearance in the post-movie credits, revealing his return to the franchise.
The Rock has previously spoken publicly about his feud with Fast and Furious co-star Vin Diesel as they had a feud a few years ago. The former WWE Champion did not have any scenes in The Fate of The Furious with Diesel and shared a social media post about some of his co-stars at the time.
The Rock told Vanity Fair the two actors have different philosophies when it comes to making films and wouldn’t return to the franchise. In November 2020, Diesel took to Instagram to call for The Rock to return to the franchise.
In a post on Twitter, he noted that he would appear in a spin-off movie to help build up to Fast X: Part Two after squashing his beef with Vin.
The Rock wrote, “Hope you’ve got your funderwear on…HOBBS IS BACK. And he just got lei’d. Luke Hobbs will be returning to the Fast & Furious franchise. Your reactions around the world to Hobbs’ return in Fast X have blown us away. The next Fast & Furious film you’ll see the legendary lawman in will be the HOBBS movie that will serve as a fresh, new chapter & set up for FASTX: Part II.
Last summer Vin and I put all the past behind us. We’ll lead with brotherhood and resolve – and always take care of the franchise, characters & FANS that we love. I’ve built my career on an “ Audience First” mentality and that will always serve as my North Star. Congratulations to my Fast Family & Universal Studios on the global success of FAST X and as always, Hobbs & @SevenBucksProd are motivated to help take the Fast franchise to new and exciting places for fans worldwide. “Daddy’s gotta go to work” ~ HOBBS.”
Hope you’ve got your funderwear on…
HOBBS IS BACK.
And he just got lei’d 🌺😈Luke Hobbs will be returning to the Fast & Furious franchise.
