On November 7th, 2021, Vin Diesel, the executive producer and star of the Fast and Furious franchise decided to post a public message on Instagram to the biggest action star in the world, Dwayne Johnson. The co-stars had been making snarky comments about each other in interviews or saying cryptic things on social media for years. For a while, it seemed like they had let bygones be bygones. Yet with the tenth iteration of the franchise about to start production, Diesel decided to create some waves… Can the Fast and Furious franchise find an identity before it's too late? What is the future for Brian O’Connor after Paul Walke’s tragic death? And is it possible for a car to drive out of an airplane and land safely before the plane crashes? This week on Past Gas, the second of our two-part series on the Fast and Furious franchise. More about Show: Follow Nolan on IG and Twitter @nolanjsykes.   Follow Joe on IG and Twitter @joegweber.
