Jordana Brewster’s Fast and Furious family has its ups and downs, just like any other family.
While Brewster, 44, promoted her new movie Heart Eyes during a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, the actress briefly addressed her Fast costars Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson’s viral Golden Globes moment on Jan. 5. When presenting at the awards ceremony, Diesel, 57, shouted out Johnson, 52, after years of reports that the two actors didn’t get along.
“I think what’s so fun about — when we keep talking about family, Fast is about family,” she said. “Families are also dysfunctional, and we’ve got the drama and we’ve got — so I think the franchise echoes that.”
Diesel, who brought Johnson into the Fast and Furious franchise with 2011’s Fast Five, has been rumored to feud with the WWE star-turned-actor dating back to 2016, when Johnson shared a lengthy, now-deleted Instagram post in which he called out some of his male costars after filming The Fate of the Furious, without naming names.

Johnson eventually took a break from the franchise in 2021, but made a cameo at the very end of 2023’s Fast X, leaving fans hopeful that he’ll reprises his role as Luke Hobbs in the franchise’s next — and potentially final — film. Diesel himself responded to the viral moment he created at the Golden Globes, when he shared a 2011 photo of himself and Johnson together on Instagram and wrote, “All love… Always…” in a caption.

“Vin’s so invested in the franchise and so creative that things are always bubbling up and then we’ll be on text changes and it’s wonderful l to see the beginning versus what ends up there,” Brewster said elsewhere in her interview with ET, when asked about Diesel’s work on the upcoming Fast X: Part 2. “And I’m being as vague as possible so as to not give anything [away.]”

On Jan. 23, Diesel shared a photo of himself and Brewster embracing on Instagram, writing that she asked him to ensure that remaining production on Fast X: Part 2 take place in Los Angeles to help the city recover from the devastating wildfires.
“Los Angeles is where Fast and Furious started filming 25 years ago… and now Fast will finally return home,” he wrote in a caption to that post.
Fast X: Part 2 does not yet have a release date.
