10 Actors Who Needed Doubles For Ridiculous Reasons

2. Vin Diesel & Dwayne Johnson Couldn't Stand Each Other - The Fate Of The Furious

The real-life beef between The Fast and the Furious stars Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson is no secret, with each not-so-subtly calling the other out on social media, and fans noting their total lack of direct interactions in the most recent film, The Fate of the Furious.

It subsequently emerged that this was completely intentional, to effectively eliminate their time physically on set with one another.

Throughout the film, there are many obvious tells: one interaction between Dominic Toretto (Diesel) and Luke Hobbs (Johnson) conspicuously takes place over the phone and was likely recorded separately, for instance.

Elsewhere, the action sequences naturally utilised stunt drivers, again ensuring Diesel and Johnson didn't need to be in the same vicinity, and in other scenes, one of the characters is generally facing away from the camera, due to one side of the interaction being carried out by a double.

Despite the mutual benefit of both men getting along and making the best movie they could - complete with, you know, actual, physical interactions between them - egos seemed to win out.

This was rather hilariously reflected by the film's poster, which also depicted the two facing away from one another.
