Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson has taken to Instagram to share his love and support for pal Kevin Hart who sustained major back injuries in a car accident in California.
Johnson, 47, posted a picture of them both from when they were filming the upcoming Jumanji sequel, with the caption: "Stop messing with my emotions brother @kevinhart4real. We have a lot more laughing to do together. Love you man. Stay strong."
The Rock is among a number of celebrities that have shared their support, with Terry Crews also being one of them.

The White Chicks actor tweeted a news story about Hart's accident with the words: "Get well soon, brother."
Bryan Cranston also took to Instagram to share a picture of himself with Hart, accompanied by the caption: "I've just heard that @kevinhart4real was injured today in a car accident in Los Angeles. Let's all send him positive energy and healing thoughts. He's a good human. Get well soon, brother."
The California Highway Patrol (CHP) confirmed news of the crash yesterday after issuing a press release which explained that the vehicle - a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda - crashed at 12.45am on Sunday in West Valley, California, when the driver, Jared S. Black, turned from Cold Canyon Road onto Mulholland Highway.

Hart, 40, was riding as a passenger in the car alongside Rebecca Broxterman, the personal trainer of the comedian's wife Eniko. Hart and Black were taken to nearby hospitals with 'major back injuries', while Broxterman suffered 'only complaint of pain'.
The press release stated: "Black immediately lost control of the vehicle and the Plymouth left the road and rolled over down the northern embankment."
It also said Black was 'determined not to be under the influence of alcohol', adding: "Two of the three occupants were trapped in the vehicle. The remaining occupant and owner of the vehicle, Kevin Hart, left the scene to his nearby residence to get medical attention.

"The driver was located in the driver's seat of the vehicle and determined not to be under the influence of alcohol at the time of the collision.
"Hart and Black sustained major back injuries as a result of this collision and were transported and treated at nearby hospitals (Northridge - Hart, UCLA Westwood - Black)."
Back in July, Hart took to Instagram with a photo of what appears to be the car involved in the crash, explaining he'd got it for his 40th birthday.
He wrote: "I added some more muscle to the family for my 40th... welcome home 'Menace'."
