Johnson finished with the hashtag #CandyAssesNeedNotApply, referring to an infamous Instagram post in which The Rock called a Fast 8 co-star a “candy ass”.
When reports initially sprung concerning Fast and Furious 9 being delayed, there wasn’t much outrage, most people presuming the series was just taking a slight hiatus.
The spin-off is due 26 July 2019, while the ninth main-series instalment is coming 10 April 2020.
However, only hours later, the real reason was revealed: Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Jason Statham’s characters are getting a spin-off titled Hobbs and Shaw.
