Dwayne Johnson is working harder than ever thanks to his two big recent projects. The newly released Jungle Cruise And the DC tape that’s in post-production right now Black Adam. As if that were not enough, the premiere of Red Notice, your collaboration with Netflix in which he shares a cast with Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds. Even with this eagerness to chain projects relentlessly, it seems that Dwayne Johnson will not return to the saga Fast and Furious. It does not seem that it is something that has to do with a creative problem with the project, because yes it will appear in the sequel to Hobbs and Shaw. It is rather, the result of the last crossing of statements with the leader of the franchise, Vin Diesel that show that your inner conflict it is still far from over.
That The Rock was not going to participate in the supposed last two tapes (Fast 10 Y Fast 11) is something that the actor had already dropped, but its absence in the conclusion of the action saga has now been confirmed by producer Hiram García, who recently revealed the revolutionary aspects of the special effects applied in Black Adam. García is the president of Seven Bucks Productions, the Johnson-owned production company. The executive producer had it in a statement to Collider: “After shooting Fast 8, DJ (Dwayne Johnson) took the clear decision to close the Fast and Furious chapter for obvious reasons. He wished everyone the best and shifted our focus to other avenues of storytelling (…) even though he won’t be in F10 or F11, that will in no way interfere with our Hobbs plans. “
In addition, García stated that they were working on “Offer something unique and fresh” for the Hobbs character. Dwayne Johnson will not appear on screen again with Diesel and his family, but it doesn’t seem like he’s going to have time to regret it either. Hobbs y Shaw 2 it is probably one of the last projects that Johnson filmed in 2022, because this second part is a priority both for Universal Pictures and for Seven Bucks.
