Did Vin Diesel Rekindle His Feud with "The Rock" at the Golden Globes?
The 2025 Golden Globe Awards saw a curious moment that seemed to reignite the long-standing tension between Vin Diesel and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Diesel took the stage to present the award for cinematic and box office achievement at The Beverly Hilton, and as the camera panned across the crowd, it captured him addressing Johnson, who was seated nearby. "Hey, Dwayne," Diesel said, with a wave and a smile. The moment, though brief, was enough to stir up attention and intrigue. The camera then cut to Johnson, who awkwardly grinned back, and the audience reacted with laughter. It wasn’t just any casual exchange — it was a moment loaded with history.
The roots of this tension go back to the "Fast & Furious" franchise, where the two actors once shared the screen as co-stars, but their on-set dynamic was far from smooth. Diesel, who has been the face of the franchise for over two decades, and Johnson, who joined the series in 2011, reportedly clashed during filming. Their feud came to public attention in 2016 when Johnson, via an Instagram post, called out some of his male co-stars as "candy asses." The post was later confirmed to be directed at Diesel. Tensions escalated as the two publicly traded barbs, with Diesel admitting to giving Johnson "tough love" on set to push him for better performances, especially for his character Hobbs.

As the years went on, the friction between Diesel and Johnson became a fixture of Hollywood gossip, especially when Johnson made it clear in 2021 that he would not return to the franchise, even after Diesel’s public invitation. However, in a surprising turn, Johnson made his return as Hobbs in a mid-credits scene in "Fast X," signaling a potential resolution to their animosity. In 2023, Johnson even declared that he and Diesel had buried the hatchet, choosing to focus on the future and the franchise's success over past grievances.
But Diesel’s comment at the Golden Globes, while cordial, raised questions. Was it an intentional move to reopen old wounds? Was it a playful jab, or perhaps an attempt to remind the world of their storied past? Fans quickly took to social media, calling the exchange “SOOOOOO LOADED” and speculating whether their long-standing beef was truly behind them.
Though both actors have expressed a commitment to moving forward, the exchange at the Golden Globes proved that the shadow of their past rivalry is never far behind. As the "Fast & Furious" saga continues to evolve, it remains to be seen how the dynamic between these two Hollywood heavyweights will play out on screen — and whether their real-life relationship will stay amicable. For now, the Golden Globes moment has once again captured the attention of fans, who are eager to see what happens next between Diesel and The Rock.
