The Fast and Furious 8 crew has been filming in several locations. They have been spotted in Cuba, Iceland and even Cleveland. And it looks like the eighth installment will be full of action and nicer rides.
The cast and crew of Fast and Furious 8 are everywhere and they are not shy in talking about what they are up to. The official Facebook page of the franchise has posted a live video as a sneak peek teaser for fans. The Fast and Furious vehicle coordinator, Dennis McCarthy, led a tour of his awesome looking “automotive Valhalla.” Various cars are being used in the film and during his live telecast, Michelle Rodriguez and Ludacris even appeared.
Fans will get to see some vehicle favorites. Dream cars like the Rolls-Royce, Farrari, Lexus, Lamborghini, Ford, Audi and Chevrolet will be featured in Furious 8. Reports indicated that the cars in McCarthy’s garage total to about $17 million. And they ae all safely guarded. Most of the cars were taken from confiscated vehicles from “drug dealers and other bad guys.” Aside from the dreamy cars, McCarthy talked about quasi-military type operations taking place in an undisclosed location. He showed an epic Fast Attack Vehicle and a blacked-out helicopter.
That means Fast 8 will be a little military, more so than the previous installments and there will be aerial scenes.
Since the cars have been revealed, Ludacris will sport a Mercedes AMG GT S while Tyrese Gibson will drive a turbo-charged Bentley Continental GT.
The air and the ground machineries are covered. However, they did not forget to cover water. A $1 million boat that is capable of speeds of more than 170 mph was shown by McCarthy. Speculations has it that that might be the escape vehicle of the Fast 8 crew to Cuba.
Fast and Furious 8 is still in the works, and old favorites like Vin Diesel, Rodriguez, Gibson and Ludacris, as well as Dwayne Johnson, Kurt Russell, Jason Statham, and Nathalie Emmanuel are on the list. While Charlize Theron is the new villain that does not even drive a car. For now, Furious followers can wait for the premiere on April 14, 2017.
