Vin Diesel supports Tyrese Gibson at ‘1992’ Premiere: ‘Nothing More Important Than Family’
On Tuesday (August 27), in Los Angeles Fast Family join Tyrese Gibson on the black carpet at the premiere of his new crime-thriller movie 1992.
“We’re at this really interesting time right now in Hollywood,” Diesel said in a clip shared by the Associated Press. “And the first people I’m going to support is a family that’s been recognized by the world, the Fast family.”
“And so the idea of [Tyrese] coming off and starring in a movie and making a movie about a time that we all remember, which was 1992. I just gotta be there. I gotta just support that and encourage him to continue his artistry because I think he’s so good.”
Tyrese appeared in his first Fast and Furious movie in 2003’s 2 Fast 2 Furious, but it wasn’t until 2011’s Fast Five that he and Vin shared the screen. They then starred in the remaining movies, including 2023’s Fast X.
But Gibson’s latest offering is 1992, in which he stars alongside Scott Eastwood and the late Ray Liotta as his final onscreen role. The film is set during the 1992 Los Angeles riots and follows Mercer (Gibson) as he tries to restore his life and mend his relationship with his son after the Rodney King verdict. Concurrently, another father and son scheme to heist Mercer’s workplace as tensions rise in LA.
The 1992 film hits theaters on August 30.
“I am forever indebted I never ever expect anything from anyone because in most cases they will let you down every time…..,” wrote the 45-year-old. “When big bro hit that corner @vindiesel with the QUEEN!!!!! Our true RIDE OR DIE in @mrodofficial I lost it…. I just lost it.”
