Fast 8

They've been shooting in Atlanta across the street from work all week. My coworker and I stalked the set quite a bit and we got a photo of Vin driving off in an SUV by surprise. The only thing I could think of doing in the moment was to do my best rendition of Vin saying "Muh Femily".

What I've been able to gather, the scene involves a three car collision, with the GTO flipped over with a torn axel. Dom pulls himself out of the car, grabs a briefcase, then takes off in an alley with Statham's character in pursuit. He meets up with Letti, shouts her name, and a crew member repeatedly clapped two apple boxes together. The last shot I saw them shoot yesterday was Letti holding the briefcase on the other end of a section of the alley having a conversation with Dom.

I'm not sure how The Rock (his stunt double anyway) and Kristofer Hivju factor into the scene, but I spotted them on set. Additionally, it's going to be fun to figure out which shots are of the actors and which are of their stunt/running doubles. A lot of times the shots involved the doubles with the facial replacements dots on their faces.
 
JustJared has a lot of pics from outdoor filming that happened on Tuesday. Major spoilers, but it appears they filmed
Dom planting one in Deckard's chest.

I hope it's not as simple as what is allegedly seen.
 
For what this is worth, F. Gary Gray revealed in a new Instagram video that Iceland is act 3.

Good news, I think it will be spectacular and best saved for the finale set piece, I thought Fast 7 blew it's load early compared to 5 and 6.

That's because it had to be reconfigured after Walker's death. There was supposedly more storyline for him that had to be dropped completely.

This is true. The sequence on it's own was still pretty good though for me.
 
I actually like the LA Battle royale that took place in act 3. My favorite action scene was the plane drop/bus overtake scene but I still enjoyed the heck out of all the mayhem in LA. Almost felt like a star wars 3rd act where a bunch of different things are happening all over the place.
 
It totally just dawned on me that F. Gary Gray has directed...


Dwayne Johnson in Be Cool
Vin Diesel in A Man Apart
Jason Statham in The Italian Job
Charlize Theron in The Italian Job

... and he's just NOW directing a Fast & Furious movie?? Why wasn't he with this franchise from the beginning? :hmr:
 
They're just now at the halfway mark of production, says the latest video for Fast Friday. Are they seriously going all the way through the end of October? Long shoot.

Looks like more of the insane/fun action we've come to expect!
 
It really is miraculous what this franchise did.

Let's be honest, when this started, it was on the same tier as xXx, Underworld, and Resident Evil... and now it's probably one of the top 5 franchises out there.

True. What's number 1 rn? Imma say Star Wars?
 
Vin said in a live Facebook video that they're launching the trailer on December 11th in Times Square. It's a Sunday. They oughta attach it to Rogue One.

They shot a big sequence in New York for this one, didn't they?
 
So Rock posted an Instagram picture showing
Hobbs in prison
. Wonder what that's about.
