Vin Diesel, director F. Gary Gray and the rest of the crew have already set foot on Cuba to film a few scenes for “Fast and Furious 8.” The movie is getting more interesting as it draws closer to its release date, especially now that some A-lister celebrities were announced to join the cast.
In a behind-the-scenes footage Vin Diesel posted on social media, he said Cuba is where “the Torettos started.” It goes without saying that the audience will see his family origin story in the eighth installment of the franchise.
MTV learned that Dom will and his brood will be pitted against Charlize Theron’s villainess. Theron was joined by Scott Eastwood as the new cast members of the franchise.
There were rumors that the “Suicide Squad” actor will be replacing Paul Walker. But Eastwood confirmed that he will make his late friend proud. His character will be operating under Kurt Russell, who plays as Mr. Nobody, ET News wrote.
Indeed, Cuba is a perfect setting to feature a backstory like this because of its warm culture and exotic locale. Michelle Rodriguez, who plays Letty ‘Ortiz’ Toretto, fell in love with the amazing energy of the people there. “Here in Cuba there is a respect & a love for the elderly, I envy that about the culture,” she wrote on her Facebook account.
Meanwhile, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson teased that his character Hobbs will come in “like an animal – bigger, lethal, meaner and tougher than a $2 dollar steak.” He wrote that as a caption as he posted a picture of his breakfast. “Fast 8” is set for release April 14, 2017.
