Vin Diesel and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson are embracing a transformative chapter in their relationship.

The legendary co-stars of the Fast and Furious franchise—who have been embroiled in a public feud for nearly a decade—made headlines with their unexpected reunion at the 2025 Golden Globes on January 5. During the event, Vin took a moment to acknowledge Dwayne with a heartfelt shoutout while on stage.

As he stood at the podium to present the highly coveted award for Cinematic and Box Office Achievement, Vin glanced over at Dwayne, flashed a warm smile, and said, “Hey, Dwayne.” This gesture undoubtedly showcased a significant shift in their dynamic.

The Rock, who is 52 years old, appeared genuinely pleased by this recognition, returning the smile and nodding appreciatively towards Vin. This exchange not only marks a pivotal moment in their relationship but also signals the possibility of reconciliation after years of tension.

The root of their feud dates back to 2016, during the filming of The Fate of the Furious, the eighth installment in the blockbuster series. Dwayne publicly expressed his frustrations on Instagram, referring to some male co-stars with derogatory terms like “chicken s–t” and “candy asses.” Although he did not name names initially, he later revealed that his issues were specifically with Vin during production.

Despite the animosity, Vin consistently attempted to maintain a professional and civil relationship with Dwayne. He has publicly praised Dwayne’s performances throughout the series and even made a heartfelt appeal for him to return for the latest installment, Fast X, demonstrating his desire to mend fences and collaborate once again.
