Vin recently said it was his "tough love" act that enabled Dwayne to perform better in the movies.

Asked about Vin's comments, Dwayne told The Hollywood Reporter, "I laughed and I laughed hard. I think everyone had a laugh at that. And I’ll leave it at that."

The actor then added, "And that I’ve wished them well. I wish them well on Fast 9. And I wish them the best of luck on Fast 10 and Fast 11 and the rest of the Fast & Furious movies they do that will be without me."

Vin had addressed the beef between Dwayne and him in a Men’s Health interview and said, "I could give a lot of tough love. Not Felliniesque, but I would do anything I’d have to do in order to get performances in anything I’m producing."
