While Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson is often celebrated for his on-screen charisma and camaraderie, his career has also been marked by behind-the-scenes tensions with various colleagues. From disagreements over creative direction to personal conflicts, Johnson has been involved in several high-profile feuds that have made headlines. These clashes, often fueled by differing personalities and career ambitions, have sometimes led to strained relationships and public controversies. Here are 8 notable examples.
Vin Diesel
This feud became public when Johnson sent out a Tweet that appeared to criticize Vin Diesel for his lack of professionalism while on the set of the Fast & Furious, although he didn’t call him out by name. However, it was all but confirmed that the two were at odds when the Rock went on to praise all of the case except for Vin Diesel. Meanwhile, Vin Diesel believed he paved the way for Johnson as the first multicultural action hero and wanted more credit for doing so, even referring to Johnson as his “little brother.” Sounds like they’ve made up though. In 2023 the Rock announced that he’d be reprising his role as Hobbs in the next Fast & Furious film Fast X: Part 2, set to be released in 2026.
