Vin Diesel simply loves being a part of huge issues. Even when he was already hooked up to be Groot in “Guardians of the Galaxy,” the actor was lobbying and teasing that he would possibly star in an “Inhumans” movie. And sure, some time in the past, when he was touring the set of “Avatar: The Way of Water,” he posted a video that made it look like he would present up in that franchise as properly. However, in keeping with producer Jon Landau, that isn’t the case, in any respect.
Speaking to Empire, Jon Landau refuted the rumors that Vin Diesel would seem in one of many upcoming “Avatar” sequels. This rumor began, as talked about, when Diesel posted a video on social media the place he was on the set of “Avatar” and mentioned, “There is one person in Hollywood I’ve always wanted to work with and learn from, and so, all things come, I guess, to those that wait.” (Let’s be actual, if anybody may be blamed for beginning the Diesel/“Avatar” rumors, it’s the actor himself, proper?)
“He came in, visited the set one day to see what we were doing and people took that out of context,” defined Landau.
Again, that’s very beneficiant of Landau to say that individuals took it out of context. If an actor posts a video from the set of a movie and talks about how nice it’s to be working with the director of mentioned movie, then the maths appears to be fairly simple. But that is Vin Diesel, who like his greatest buddy (aka fiercest enemy) Dwayne Johnson, likes to exaggerate a bit to construct up buzz for his personal profession.
That mentioned, if Vin Diesel goes to be in any new franchise, “Avatar” wouldn’t be the worst one on this planet. Yes, he’d must do some mocap work, which he may not take pleasure in, however his voice is nice and the person positive does love tales about households. And now, everyone knows that the way forward for the “Avatar” movie collection is all about household.
Alas, it’s not occurring. Instead, we simply have to attend patiently for Vin Diesel to complete out his “Fast & Furious” franchise with the upcoming two-part finale, with the primary half, “Fast X,” arriving this summer season.
