What Paul said
During the interview, when Paul was talking about how he likes that the character he voiced in Inside Out 2, Embarrassment, has a proper arc, the host compared that to Vin Diesel’s role as Groot in Guardians of the Galaxy. In response, Paul said immediately, “Please don’t say that! I like to think I’m on time. And approachable. Sorry, I love people, but when I hear stories about Hollywood actors who get paid really well and mistreat people, I out them constantly. And it’s a blast.”
Fan reactions
Fans reacted favourably towards Paul’s comments and praised his confidence. “There was no fear there, it was confidence,” said a fan. Another commented, “Hell yeah, just gained mad respect for this actor.” A comment also read, “He does not hesitate at all (laughing face emoticon).”
More details
The speculation around Vin Diesel’s unprofessional conduct on set is not the first time to hit the internet. Earlier there were reports of a fallout on the Fast and Furious 8 set. As per reports, Vin was constantly late to set, which caused a clash between Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson and Vin during the making of the Fast and Furious franchise.
Meanwhile, Inside Out 2 opened to great reviews and is having a successful run at the box office. The animation film has become the highest-grossing film of the year 2024 with a business of $724 million across the globe.
