It seems like the feud between Tyrese Gibson and Dwayne Johnson is continuing to be 'Fast' and 'Furious'.

A video, posted by Gibson, sees him claiming that he won't appear in 'Fast and Furious 9' if Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson signs up to reprise his role.

The actor shared a snap of himself, alongside Dwayne and fellow star Vin Diesel, and wrote, "Hello world. hello loyal fans and loved ones from OUR fast universe. I'm sorry to announce that if Dewayne is in Fast9 there will no more Roman Peirce - You mess with family and my daughters survival I mess with yours. Close your eyes dude you're a ''Clown'' #CandyAssB***h Made All my real one."

"Men on integrity. my real ones out here stand UP. folks that GP to the gym and get big naturally #NoJuice#NoOJ spin off huh? Spin off these nuts selfish champ. pause notice who's got his arms around my shoulder and who's standing alone - #OurChildrenMatter (sic)" the actor continued.

The response comes after the rapper previously accused 45-year-old Dwayne of abandoning the 'Fast and Furious' family to "fly solo".

The feud stems from Johnson's decision to pursue a spin-off movie with Jason Statham, which has delayed the production of the ninth 'Fast & Furious' instalment.

Speculation of a feud between the male co-stars first surfaced last year when Dwayne slammed unnamed actors for the way they allegedly acted on set.

In his rant, the star praised his female co-stars, Charlize Theron, Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez, but admitted it was a ''different story'' working with the guys.
