Dwayne Johnson is one of the most popular actors in the entire entertainment industry currently. Although, he never began his professional career as an actor. Prior to joining Hollywood, Johnson was known as The Rock and was a main-event talent in WWE.
His time and tenure in WWE rose him to the limelight and gave him the spotlight he needed to shine. Soon, after several successful years in WWE, Johnson would leave the promotion, and join Hollywood to become an actor.
A few years ago, Johnson found himself in deep waters with one of his co-actors, Vin Diesel. His beef with Diesel, compelled him to walk out of the popular movie series, ‘Fast and Furious’. He last appeared in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, a spin-off movie to the series.

And, ever since then, Johnson has not appeared in either F9 or the upcoming Fast X. Johnson’s absence from the films caused his critics to criticize and troll him for being too proud. Recently, as Vin Diesel appeared and promoted the new Fast X trailer, fans brutally started trolling Dwayne Johnson for missing out on the film.
When the 50-year-old walked out of the franchise, he claimed it was tough working with Diesel, and he could not anymore. However, as Diesel started promoting the new trailer, fans forgot the reason for Johnson leaving, and started trolling him while cheering on Diesel.

Will there be a sequel to the 2019 film, ‘Hobbs & Shaw’?
Hobbs & Shaw was released in 2019 and was a huge hit. It was a spin-off film to the successful movie franchise, ‘Fast & Furious’. However, it turned out to be Dwayne Johnson’s last film in the series, and he never returned to the franchise.
However, last year in 2022, a disappointing update came out regarding the future of Hobbs & Shaw. Kelly McCormick revealed to Comicbook in an interview that they are interested in filming a sequel, however, they have not discussed it yet.
