    F&F series ending?

    Earn that paycheck, Tyrese!

    Tyrese threatens to quit 'Fast & Furious' in rambling Instagram rant against The Rock

    Fast & Furious's Tyrese Gibson continued his one-sided war of words against franchise star Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson in a bizarre, error-filled rant on his official Instagram account Tuesday.

    Gibson even threatened to stop playing his Furious Roman Pearce character, a name which he spelled incorrectly in the Tuesday post, if Johnson appears in the upcoming ninth Fast & Furious movie.

    "I’m sorry to announce that if Dewayne (sic) is in Fast9, there will no more Roman Peirce (sic)," Tyrese wrote. "You mess with family and my daughter's survival I mess with yours."

    Without specifying the nature of his complaints, Gibson then went on to call Johnson a number of names with "clown" being the main printable term.

    Gibson expressed frequent ire on Instagram last month about the plans for a Furious spin-off starring Johnson and Jason Statham, two of the standout stars of 2017's hit Fate of the Furious.

    The untitled spinoff, due out July 26, 2019, took the release spot previously reserved for Fast & Furious 9, the next film in the main franchise. Universal Studios delayed the ninth franchise film until April 10, 2020 (the tenth is due out April 2021).

    Gibson continued to decry Universal Studios' spin-off decision with vulgar terms in the current post, while calling Johnson a "selfish champ."

    Same. Don't see the importance of any of this.

    Why do people like Jason Statham? I don't get it?

    Why is Tyrese angry at the Rock?

    Ending? As long as we have NOS, it never ends!

    It tooks me like 2 minutes into this thread to figure out what F&F stood for. I think it may be because I passed out reading about Instagram rants.

    Because the Rock got offered a standalone spinoff and he didn't.

    What did he mean by this? I'm assuming F&F is the only job he has?

    You know this is manufactured outrage/beef used to promote the series, right?

    People don't actually believe this shit, right?

    ... Right?

    Goddamn, people suck.

    Yeah good plan Tyrese. I am sure the producers will drop the most bankable star in Hollywood at the moment in order to make sure a D-lister like you is happy.

    It seems it has something to do with the fact that they may push back production of F&F 9 in order to make a spin-off about The Rock's character and Tyrese is mad because he is in the middle of a nasty custody fight with his ex-wife and desperately needs that fat F&F pay check. How any of that is The Rock's fault I have no idea.

    To promote what? There isn't even a movie in production right now. It will be at least a year or two before any movie hits screens.

    Considering part 8 was one of the biggest money making movies THIS YEAR, I'd say no?

    As for the thread title...no, Tyrese going off the rails isn't going to end the series. Even if he did quit(and he's not gonna, since it's about the only thing he does that people care about), it's not like he's the draw of the series for...well, anyone?

    Out of curiosity, why would you want it to end?
