Universal later insisted the two had buried the hatchet, however, it seems tensions are simmering now the film’s press tour has rolled around – something the studio is downplaying.  Despite this, an insider told The Hollywood Reporter: “They’re keeping them separated as much as possible.” Following the initial issue, a studio source stated: “What happened is over, and no one expects there to be any lingering effects. When it comes time to promote the movie, this will have no bearing.” However, Johnson – who was in Las Vegas for CinemaCon on Monday and Tuesday (27/28 March) promoting both Jumanji and Baywatch – made himself scarce for the Fast & Furious 8 presentation yesterday (30 March).
