THE fast furious franchise continues to celebrate its history in the run-up to the launch of the x fast trailer arriving February 10, and now Fast Five receives the inherited treatment.
The latest “Legacy Trailer” for the fast furious franchise presents 2011s Fast Five, directed by Justin Lin. He is particularly notable for introducing Dwayne Johnson’s Luke Hobbs into the mix. The plot sees Vin Diesel and the rest of the crew heading to Rio in order to pull off a $100 million heist. Gal Gadot’s Gisele Yashar was also featured in the film.
Discover the heritage Fast Five trailer below:
x fast is led by Transporter director Louis Leterrier, who took over the role of Justin Lin after Lin suddenly left the project due to creative differences. The film is written by Lin and Dan Mazeau, with Lin still attached as producer.
Diesel, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Ludacris, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang and Scott Eastwood will reprise their respective roles in the film. The tenth episode will also feature the additions of franchise newcomer Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Daniela Melchior (The Suicide Squad), Brie Larson (Captain Marvel), and Alan Ritchson (Reacher), with Momoa supposed to play the antagonist.
Based on characters created by Gary Scott Thompson, the latest episode takes the family around the world, from London to Tokyo, Central America to Edinburgh, and from a secret bunker in Azerbaijan to the teeming streets of Tbilisi. Along the way, old friends will be resurrected, old enemies will return, history will be rewritten, and the true meaning of family will be tested like never before.
