While the feud between Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson and Vin Diesel reportedly got settled, their social media posts gestures hint otherwise.

After officially wrapping the production of 'Fast 8', Johnson gave out shout-outs to the action film's director F. Gary Gray, his co-stars and the crew; noticeably no mention of Diesel was there in the posts, reports the People Magazine.

"Finished strong and on to the next. That's an officially wrap on #FastAndFurious8. Thank you to our director @fgarygray for the vision and execution," posted the 44-year-old Rock.

Adding, "Thank you to all my fellow co-stars for the daily effort and grind. Scott Eastwood you handsome sumbitch! Natalie Emmanuel I have a cold Budweiser ready for you and Tyrese Gibson you still have the biggest smile and forehead I've ever seen."

The tiff between the two began, after Johnson, addressing his male co-stars of 'Fast 8' posted, "Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don't. The ones that don't are too chicken s--- to do anything about it anyway, Candy asses."

The production of the upcoming sequel began in May, and according to sources the tension had been building for months between them.

Despite all hard feeling, Johnson concluded his post with a heartfelt dedication to the rest of the 'Fast 8' team.

"A huge THANK YOU to our hard working production crew - the backbone of our business. Your kind words meant a lot to me last night - thank you!" he said.

Adding, "In the end, we all rallied, as great teams do, kicked ass and will deliver an amazing movie to the world. Proud of our entire FAST FAMILY.
