Vin Diesel
hasn't been posting much on Instagram, but he returned Sunday night with a
bizarre poster for his upcoming Fast & Furious movie F9 while hinting at a
'war' between Universal Studios and the Producers Guild of America.
The
52-year-old actor (real name Mark Sinclair) posted a bizarre poster for F9 that
had clearly been edited in Photoshop, almost giving it the look of a Halloween
movie with a jack-o-lantern and a dark house in the background.
Diesel
apologized to his fans for not posting much, before delivering a cryptic
message about some sort of conflict, perhaps involving his producer's credit on
F9.

'Happy
creative Sunday everyone... sorry I haven’t posted much lately, I have been
trying to mitigate a war between Universal studios and the p.g.a. Prejudice
guild of America,' Diesel said.
The poster
itself was actually designed by an Instagram user dubbed Mommy Torretto, a
photo editor whose Instagram is filled with Fast & Furious poster
parodies.Mommy Torretto posted the poster on Instagram on Halloween 2019,
though why Diesel used it in his post is unclear.
While
Diesel did crop out the bottom featuring the old release date and Universal
Pictures logo, the Made by Mommy Torretto watermark is still visible on the
poster.
Universal
Pictures announced in March that F9 will be pushed nearly an entire year, from
May 22, 2020 to April 2, 2021, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
As for
Diesel's cryptic message, there is no indication why he is referring to the
Producers Guild of America as the Prejudice Guild of America.
