. The widely circulated $54 million figure is inaccurate. Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn finally addressed this long-standing rumour in April 2023.

Although it's unclear where the $54 million estimate originated, Gunn didn't support the claim. Responding to a tweet that featured a screenshot of an article asserting Diesel earned that amount for repeatedly saying, "I am Groot," Gunn replied with a laughing emoji and the words, "Not true," debunking the speculation.
