While promoting his latest film, "Skyscraper," Dwayne Johnson says he and his partner "Fast & Furious" Tyrese Gibson have not spoken since Gibson has accused Johnson of trying to make The franchise "All this with Tyrese, it was quite disappointing because I had been friends with Tyrese for a very long time," Johnson told a caller while appearing on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen." "
"I always have the impression that the beef needs two people to jump in, and it was rather biased, and he had expressed a lot of his opinion on social media," continued Johnson. "Apparently, he was doing stuff, too, in his personal life, but no, we did not talk and I do not see where we would do it and, for me, he did not talk about it. There is no need to have a conversation. "

The quarrel began in September 2017 when it was announced that Johnson would star with Jason Statham in a spinoff of the" F & F "series called" Hobbs & Shaw ", which sees the Old bitter enemies continue their unlikely new partnership. David Leitch ("Deadpool 2") will direct the film with an anticipated release in July 2019.
But Gibson was not happy with Universal's decision to create a spin-off company around Johnson and Statham, which were later added to the cast of him, Vin Diesel, Ludacris, Michelle Rodriguez, and the late Paul Walker. Gibson attacked Johnson on social media, even threatening to leave the series if the fallout was green

Dwayne Movies & The Rock & # 39; Johnson, ranked from worst to best (Photos)
-
Dwayne Johnson is one of the last big movie stars. Whether it's kicking, tickling funny bones or (often) both, The Rock has the odd ability to make almost every movie better by showing up.
(Note: These films are graded by quality and Dwayne Johnson-ness, the minor role is generally small, and cameos are only included if they are outstanding.)
Honorable Mention: "The Mummy Returns" (2001)
It's hard to judge "The Mummy Returns" as a "Dwayne Johnson film": The wrestler became an actor in the movie for a very short prologue, then he comes back to the end as a CGI scorpion monster. But that's the first major role of Johnson in a movie, so it deserves a hat trick for that reason and (since the movie is so hyperactive, it's a little hard to watch) for that reason alone .
Universal Pictures
Honorable Mention: "The Other Guys" (2010)
Johnson has done more than a police comedy where his cameo is nothing out of control. other than a joke (see also: "Reno 911 !: Miami"), but his appearance in "The Other Guys" of Adam McKay is a treat. Johnson appears as the ideal heroic action movie of law enforcement, facing Samuel L. Jackson, to die unexpectedly, forcing "the other guys" – Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg – to take the Central place. It's a small part, but Johnson owns it, and the rest of the movie is as funny as heck too.
Columbia Pictures
27. "Snitch" (2013)
Johnson made several embarrassing films (we'll come back to it in a minute), but he's never made a film anymore annoying as "snitch". He plays the role of a father whose son is arrested for drugs, and the only way to get the child out of jail is to kill a larger drug dealer. So Johnson goes undercover to find one. The idea is luscious and interesting, but the film is turgid and lifeless, only notable for the strong support of Jon Bernthal.
Summit Entertainment
26. "Doom" (2005)
This may not be the worst video game movie, but it says much more about the other movies only on "Doom". Johnson and Karl Urban play the role of Space Marines during a mission to Mars, where monsters kill people. Andrzej Bartkowiak's film is so poorly lit that it's hard to tell what's going on, and when you understand what's going on, you realize it's really silly. The final fight between Johnson and Urban is pretty cool, but it's not worth watching the rest of this awful movie to get there.
Universal Pictures
25. "Southland Tales" (2006)
Richard E. Kelly's ambitious sequel to "Donnie Darko" has an impressive cast and many great ideas, but the cast is wasted, and big ideas are the kind that you will only find when you are wasted. Johnson holds the role of a conservative movie star who gets trapped in a vast sci-fi conspiracy, but the film is not funny, it's not perceptive , and even the wildest moments are not crazy enough. If you're wondering what it would look like if Neil Breen was doing "Wild Palms" again, well, you have very specific tastes, but that's the movie for you. And probably only you.
Universal Pictures
24. "Baywatch" (2017)
Johnson takes over the role of David Hasselhoff in "Baywatch", comic adaptation of a television series that probably did not know that it was funny. This is not a bad idea, and Johnson occasionally takes advantage of it, but the film's sense of grotesque humor and lazy stereotypes undermine any attempt at ingenuity. Believe it or not, "Baywatch" deserved better.
Paramount Pictures
23. "Empire State" (2013)
The true story of the biggest money robbery in American history is not as interesting as one might think. In this competent but banal drama, Liam Hemsworth and Michael Angarano get rid of the crime, while Johnson takes a role of ungrateful support while the cop chases them, which has no personality traits to speak of. There is a reason why most people do not know that this movie exists. That's for Dwayne Johnson die-hards only.
