Vin Diesel has finally addressed the presence of Dwayne Johnson, widely known as The Rock, in Fast X.
Diesel and Johnson have been the attraction of the popular Fast and Furious franchise. Their feud and chemistry in the film has always been admired by the fans of the franchise. But the latter stepped away from the franchise due to a tiff with the former. He is now all set to return for the final installment of the Fast series.
While talking about the Rock’s presence in the film, the 56-year-old actor, who plays Dominic Toretto in the movies, shared that Hobbs return was ‘badly needed’ in Fast X.
He told: “It was no easy task to brings Hobbs back because so much has been created in this universe. To tie up all these storylines, this character needed to come back into the mythology.”
