I think some things may be blown out of proportion.
I dont think that was his intention.
I know he appreciates how much I work [for] this franchise.
In my house, hes Uncle Dwayne.
Some conduct themselves as stand-up men and true professionals, while others dont,he wrote.
The ones that dont are too chickens to do anything about it anyway.
I protect the franchise.
I protect everybody, including Dwayne, said Diesel.
I protected Dwayne more than hell ever know.
And it doesnt matter.
He doesnt have to know.
But he appreciates it.
Dwayne has only got one Vin in his life.
Dwayne Johnson only has one big brother in this film world and thats me.
Im always rooting for Dwayne, he said.
Im the first multicultural megastar in Hollywood.
To see another multicultural star come up is something I am very proud of.
Ive been in the game a long time.
Would Universal [Pictures] have preferred that didnt happen?
Sure, we talked about it.
