‘The Fast and the Furious 10’: Vin Diesel calls on Dwayne Johnson to return to the franchise

There are still two more “The Fast and the Furious” movies left before the franchise ends, but fans are still unsure whether Dwayne Johnson will reprise his role as Federal Agent Luke Hobbs.

From behind the scenes of ‘The Fast and Furious 8’, the star had fallen out with Vin Diesel, which had motivated his absence in the 9th film.

Although the pair apparently settled the score, Johnson announced a few months ago that he would not be returning in any upcoming films and would only focus on his franchise spin-off, titled “Hobbs & Shaw.”

However, Diesel did his colleague’s hair in an Instagram post by sharing an image from Toretto and Hobbs’ first meeting.

In legend, Diesel wrote:

“My little brother Dwayne… The time has come. The world is waiting for the end of “The Fast and the Furious 10”. As you know my kids call you Uncle Dwayne at home. No vacation goes by without you exchanging happy messages… But the time has come. The inheritance awaits. I told you years ago that I would keep my promise to Pablo. I swore we would do our best in the 10th movie. I say that for love… But you have to show yourself, don’t leave the franchise inactive, because you have a very important role to play. Hobbs cannot be experienced by anyone else. Hope you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny.
