Fast and furious exit! Vin Diesel 'storms off set minutes after wrapping' amid 'candy ass' row with Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson


He didn't stick around too long to say goodbye.
Vin Diesel stormed off the set of Fast 8 just 'minutes' after filming his final scenes on Wednesday, according toTMZ.
 The site reported he gathered everyone to say he was leaving, his speech including the words: 'Daddy's gone'.

The 49-year-old was recently revealed to be the 'candy ass' his co-star Dwayne Johnson was referring to when he blasted unnamed male co-stars in a surprise Facebook rant.
TMZ claimed Diesel went to confront Johnson about his comments at his trailer; they spoke privately inside, but the issue does not seem to have been resolved.
In his post, The Rock said that apart from working with his female co-stars - Charlize Theron, Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez - and a great behind the scenes crew, the experience genuinely made his 'blood boil'.
Along with a short video showing a fight scene from the film, he posted: 'This is my final week of shooting Fast & Furious 8. There's no other franchise that gets my blood boiling more than this one.
'An incredible hard working crew. Universal Studios Entertainment has been great partners as well. My female co-stars are always amazing and I love 'em. My male co-stars however are a different story (sic).
'Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don't. The ones that don't are too chicken sh*t to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses.'
The Rock's somewhat ironic strategy of calling publicly someone chicken sh*t yet not naming him had tongues wagging as to who it might be.
Co-star Tyreese Gibson was one of the first to react, saying he didn't know who The Rock was talking about, but he assumed it wasn't him - as the picture accompanying the post was of Johnson 'singing from his heart and soul' to Tyreese's own daughter.
While he said 'DJ happens to be one of the most humble, down to earth and professional people I've ever worked with and more importantly he's my brother', he did add that 'of course' the WWE star should not have generalised and should have called out names.
Meanwhile fellow co-star Scott Eastwood admitted he doesn't understand why his co-stars always go back to their trailers after filming a scene.
The Rock's final scenes are scheduled for Thursday, while the movie has one more week of filming left.
Fast 8 is still scheduled to hit cinemas on Friday 14 April, 2017.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has said that he did not join the All Progressive Congress (APC) so as to run for the Presidency in 2015,  but to nurture the party and ensure that good governance is entrenched in Nigeria  come 2015.
