Member AlbertV Posted January 24, 2019 Member Share Posted January 24, 2019 (edited) This year is going to be busy for Vin Diesel. In April, he will begin shooting the ninth (and second to last) installment of The Fast and Furious franchise. Production will take place in both the UK and in Hawaii. Plot details are unknown but what is confirmed is that Justin Lin will return to the franchise to direct after sitting out Furious 7 and The Fate of the Furious. http://www.darkhorizons.com/fast-furious-9-plans-uk-hawaii-shoots/ After that film wraps up, Diesel will be set for the fourth xXx film.

Member DragonClaws Posted February 2, 2019 Member Share Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) The Rock wont be in the next installment of this rubber burning franchise, but I think thats a good idea. It's not like the him and his screen character, hasnt got a movie of their own to star in, alongside Brit-Brawler, Jason Statham.

Member SamSeed Posted February 3, 2019 Member Share Posted February 3, 2019 Pretty obvious this was coming, but will it affect box office? I do wonder, Vin Diesel isn't the pull he once was and there's a strong argument to be made that Johnson brings in a lot of the audience. Of course a Fast film will always do well, but it'll be interesting to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted February 3, 2019 Member Share Posted February 3, 2019 I don't think Dwayne Johnson & Vin Diesel get on, perhaps that's ehy he's not in this one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the much highly publicized rift between Johnson and Tyrese Gibson. Besides, I think Johnson will be too busy working on the next Jumanji film to even be able to shoot the F&F film. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard this before, The Rock actually helped revive this series, and let it go in a whole different direction. Big ego and big pay-checks are going to cause friction, it's like any job, you have work with people, you might not choose to work with personally. Personally, I think they left him out, becuase his character just got his own movie, pretty much, even though he's sharing the screen with Statham. Probably more interested in this, than another installment in the series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They allegedly hated one another and would only be together in the same room when sharing scenes. I've heard Vin Diesel doesn't like people stealing his thunder.

Member AlbertV Posted February 5, 2019 Author Member Share Posted February 5, 2019 Johnson went to ABC News and said that he and Diesel had a talk in his trailer to clear the air and did say they have different views of professionalism, but it seems that feud has cooled off for now. Apparently, Diesel has been known to be late on the sets consistently and that's what set off Johnson. https://abcnews.go.com/beta-story-container/GMA/Culture/dwayne-rock-johnson-explains-sparked-vin-diesel-feud/story?id=54242825 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member DragonClaws Posted March 10, 2019 Member Share Posted March 10, 2019 (edited) So far with have Tyrese Gibson, Jordana Brewster and Vin Diesel back from the previous installment's. With actor Lucas Black(Fast & Furiouse 7) rumoured to be joining the cast, according to IMDB. With Michelle Rodgriguez and more names appearing on the early poster art-work. Though it appears The Dwayne Johnson wont be returning, Link- https://theactionelite.com/the-rock-wont-be-in-fast-furious-9/. If the female driven spin-off project gets off the ground, how will it effect the casting for this ninth instalment?.

Member Drunken Monk Posted May 3, 2019 Member Share Posted May 3, 2019 Cena's a good choice. He might not have the star power of Dwayne Johnson but he's proved he has acting chops on numerous occasions. I think he could really shine in something like the Fast & Furious franchise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part 7 is great (if you like big, silly action) but part 8 I could have lived without. I thought that one let down the series. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
