The Golden Globes Show How Weird It Will Be For Vin Diesel & Dwayne Johnson To Work Together On The Next Fast & Furious Movie

The Movie Could Be Hurt By Their Feud

If Vin Diesel's joke at the 2025 Golden Globes is any sign, it could be incredibly weird for Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson to work together on the next Fast & Furious movie. The two actors have been feuding for nearly a decade, and while things seem to be getting better between the duo, Johnson's reaction to Vin Diesel's joke is a sign that the feud is still at the forefront of both of their minds. This means that there will undoubtedly be some tension while on set, with it being possible that the feud could be reignited.

The awkwardness on set won't be felt only by Johnson and Diesel, as the awkward laughter at the Golden Globes showed that those in attendance also felt slightly uncomfortable. The cast and crew of the next Fast & Furious could have a similar feeling, with this possibly having a negative impact on the end product. While it is entirely possible that Johnson and Diesel have completely patched things up and will remain entirely professional on set, it is impossible not to imagine things going badly after the awkwardness at the 2025 Golden Globes.

Vin Diesel & Dwayne Johnson's Fued Could Ruin Dom & Hobbs' Fast & Furious Reunion

If The Animosity Between The Actors Is Felt

One of the most exciting parts of the next Fast & Furious movie is the potential for Dom and Hobbs to reunite, but Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson's feud could ruin this. It has been a long time since Dom and Hobbs have been seen together, meaning that the reunion of Johnson and Diesel is a big selling point of the sequel after Hobbs' return in Fast X.

However, since Diesel and Johnson didn't film any scenes together for The Fate of the Furious, doing something similar in the next movie could tarnish their return. On top of that, if the audience can feel the animosity between the two actors, it will hurt their dynamic, with the two characters needing to feel like family. The 2025 Golden Globes has raised all kinds of concerns regarding the next Fast & Furious movies, with the development of the feud being an incredibly interesting story to follow.
