I think Diesel is trying to establish himself, and as you said, maybe some ego
got in the way. Yet, he did that family-friendly flick where he was agent

yeah Vin is doing an animated Hannibal for BET and looks like he might
be in another Fast and Furious flick. But i think that franchise is
pretty much dead. So looks like he is trying to rebuild his career
