Tyrese Calls Dwayne Johnson “A Clown” For Breaking Up “Fast & Furious” Family

    Tyrese has slammed Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson in light of the recent news that Johnson’s The Fast and the Furious spinoff film has been approved for 2019.

    In mid-September, Tyrese called out Johnson after learning of the star’s plans to move forward with a spinoff film that focuses on the characters of Johnson and fellow co-star Jason Statham. In a lengthy Instagram post, Tyrese asked Johnson to push the spinoff’s release date back so the ninth installment of the franchise could come first.

    On Thursday (October 5), The Hollywood Reporter announced the spinoff film will come first and is set for a July 26, 2019 release. The ninth installment of The Fast and the Furious will now be released on April 10, 2020, a year later than previously planned.

    After learning of the news, Tyrese took to Instagram to publicly criticize Johnson for ignoring his previous wishes. He sarcastically congratulated the wrestler-turned-actor for “breaking up the Fast Family” and “making the fast and the furious franchise about YOU.”

    Tyrese also revealed that a number of the franchise’s other marquee stars, including Vin Diesel, the late Paul Walker and Ludacris, all turned down the opportunity of doing separate spinoff films based on their own characters.

    In a somewhat cryptic post, Diesel also took to Instagram to share a photo of himself alongside the late Paul Walker and Tyrese with the caption, “Brotherhood…”

    Tyrese later commented on Diesel’s picture, saying, “I’m not in this alone………….. What is said is said.. #FastFamily we don’t fly solo…….”

    1. haha besides his coke commercial its tys only income, cant wait another year for the bag? got mo den me so oh well

    2. The Rock IS the franchise at this point. He’s more of an entertainer and a better actor than all of those clowns put together.

    3. I love Tyrese but he’s bugging. The Rock increased the value of that franchise tremendously (look up how much money it brought in before and after he joined). And this only breaks up the family if they are insecure about their ability and value. If it was a family they wouldn’t want to hold the man back. They benefited greatly off of his value, now that he wants to make full use of it Tyrese is hating. Sorry bruh.

    4. TYRESE IS A CLOWN AND THE ROCK NEED TO GO BACK TO GAY ASS WWE ..THE REAL FRANCHISE IS VIN DIESEL AND WAS PAUL WALKER (R.I.P)

    5. Damn y’all Khalid called it, they don’t want you to win. These dudes probably never see each other out of filming regardless. Can’t imagine anyone actually looks forward to these Fast films, the series been trash. Go and get yours Dwayne, even though your movies typically trash too #FACTS

    6. Tyrese sounds like a jealous ex gf or something. Let the man live. Shit, who ever thought the franchise woulda spawned this many movies to begin with.

      1. It appeals to a wide variety of markets due to broke people’s obsessions with rich cars they cannot afford, crime, family, and a multitude of racially diverse actors. South America goes crazy for this franchise. Huge market. The movie cannot be dumbed down anymore than it already is, though on the other hand, because it doesn’t intimidate those markets, it appeals to them in the right ways. The irony of rich people immitating broke people though, haha….fuck hollywood.

    7. The CARS and effects are THE REAL STARS of these films! THE ROCK is the Biggest Star in Movies and the Studio likes the idea to vary it up…. Tyrese is a weirdo crybaby, f*ck around and this 3rd stringer MAY NEVER be in another of these films! ….and NO we don’t believe they were gonna make a movie about Ludacris’ small role! That’s ABSURD! He woulda JUMPED on that in a nano second if true…….. to air these feelings in PUBLIC rather than in closed doors meetings, already tells you Tyrese is a LAME!

    8. there’s virtually nowhere else to go besides spinoffs. Might as well make some money if Universal is cutting a check

    9. I think y’all might wanna look up Tyrese’s net worth!!! Over 40 movies, his own label with 3 platinum albums. I mean I’m not a Tyrese fan, but I am a fan of common sense. And a lot of people on here is desperately missing common sense!!!

    10. Why he didn’t pull up on Ginuwine when he went at him about breaking up TGT? Seems like a weird thing to get mad about, The Rock just trying to get all the money he can while he popping aint that what you suppose to do. The franchise isn’t over because of that blame the studio for trying to cash out on the franchise, if it’s really about brotherhood they should of ended it when Paul Walker died but they still signing on for sequels…
