Vin Diesel seemed to suggest he’ll be sharing his side of the “Fast 8” feud he reportedly has with co-star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

The actor, who also served as a producer on the upcoming installment of the “Fast and Furious” franchise, posted an Instagram video on Wednesday that ends with him alluding to on-set tensions that Johnson complained about on the same social media platform earlier this week.

“Give me a second and I will tell you everything,” Diesel said, adding in a more menacing tone, “Everything.”

Diesel kicked off the video by telling his fans he has been on set since Christmas, and was delighted to come home to hear his daughter learned a new word: “happy.” He said that her new word not only described his spirit and his soul, but “most people who stay positive.”

The movie star’s cryptic message comes days after Johnson expressed his frustrations with unidentified male co-stars. “Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don’t,” he wrote on Instagram. “The ones that don’t are too chicken s–t to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses. When you watch this movie next April and it seems like I’m not acting in some of these scenes and my blood is legit boiling – you’re right.”

TMZ reported Wednesday that Diesel was the co-star Johnson was calling out, because the WWE wrestler isn’t happy with Diesel’s producing decisions.

The site reported more on Thursday, citing anonymous “production sources” who said Johnson and other members of the crew were upset that Diesel regularly arrived late to shoot scenes, choosing to hang out in his trailer instead. Additionally, TMZ’s sources claimed Diesel was arrogant, and criticized co-stars acting.

Johnson has since posted another statement, explaining the movie production is a team effort, so “there’s gonna be conflict.”

“Family is gonna have differences of opinion and fundamental core beliefs. To me, conflict can be a good thing, when its followed by great resolution,” Johnson wrote. “I was raised on healthy conflict and welcome it. And like any family, we get better from it. At the end of the day me and #F8 co-stars all agree on the most important thing: Delivering an incredible movie to the world.”
