Vin Diesel honours his friendship with Dwayne Johnson after their feud

Vin Diesel gushed about his former co-star’s Dwayne Johnson’s performance, who is also known as The Rock, after ending their years long feud in 2023.

On Tuesday, November 25, the Fast Five star turned to his Instagram to write down a lengthy paragraph over Johnson’s act as MMA fighter Mark Kerr in The Smashing Machine movie.

The Fast X actor first praised the movie and then started to talked about his friend.

“Let me celebrate Dwayne, People don’t understand what it takes to uphold a global perception every single day. I remember asking our global family who they’d love to see me work with, and a woman named Jan left a comment saying her dream was for me to collaborate with Dwayne,” Diesel wrote in the caption alongside a photo of himself and the Moana actor.

He continued, “What followed became one of the most dynamic pairings in cinema, two strong personalities who pushed each other and created something unforgettable, when he stepped into Hobbs, he did it with full commitment and left an indelible mark on Universal’s character hall of fame.”

The 58-year-old actor’s post comes 10 months after he reunited with the Black Adam star at the 2025 Golden Globes.

Vin Diesel smiled at Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in the audience and called out, "Hey, Dwayne," while presenting the Cinematic and Box Office Achievement award.
