Rumors about what actually occurred between stars The Rock and Gal Gadot have been circulating ever before Netflix's blockbuster hit Red Notice. Fans are wondering, "Did an explosive argument between the main cast leak?" while Hollywood's gossip mill goes into action. In addition, how is Netflix managing the turmoil around Red Notice 2?

Red Notice's production wasn't without its difficulties, according to several sources. There were rumors of a major on-set argument between The Rock and Ryan Reynolds, as well as between The Rock and Gal Gadot. After waiting for The Rock for up to five hours, Reynolds allegedly became angry. According to some insiders, Gal Gadot was lured into the conflict by association, which fueled rumors of an explosive argument between the three characters. The tension resulted in a passionate dispute, and Johnson left the set in frustration.

Numerous sources, including those from ScreenRant and Koimoi, agree on the main point: the sequel's postponement is probably mostly due to the aftermath from this rivalry. After filming ended, the cast reportedly remained silent for years.

The Rock and Gal Gadot's mutual respect is shown on camera in cast interviews, but neither Netflix nor the film's producers have disclosed the specifics of the dispute. The Rock referred to Gal Gadot as his "hero" following a severe on-set injury, and Gadot has complimented The Rock as a generous partner.

Social media exploded with theories. One viral tweet read,

"Gal Gadot and The Rock fighting? Didn't see THAT Red Notice twist coming! #TeamGal."

Another Redditor asked: 

"Is this why Red Notice 2 is in limbo?! Hollywood drama is wilder than fiction."

The fallout highlights broader problems in Hollywood; disagreements on the set can ruin even the most promising productions, evocative of the infamous Marvel delays following star disputes. Delays are a caution flag for big-budget partnerships in the streaming era, as Netflix is keen to take advantage of record viewership.

Tension may sometimes equate to hype in Hollywood. Will the rivalry between Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot, and The Rock ruin Red Notice's sequel or increase anticipation? As of right now, the studio's silence just feeds fan speculation. As rumors circulate, stay tuned and check out our Red Notice Season 4 Recap!
