The Fast and The Furious franchise keeps making lots of money, movie after movie. So without a doubt, were getting Fast Five, the latest installment of the franchise. Little is known about the main story. All we know is that it’s currently filming in Puerto Rico and that it’s coming out in 2011. We also know that most of the cast is back once again. Today, we get our first look at the cast…
Actor/R&B singer, Tyrese Gibson (2 Fast 2 Furious), has given us our first look at the cast of Fast Five, the fifth installment to The Fast and The Furious franchise. Gibson tweeted out set photos of the cast earlier this morning on his Twitter account.
The Fast Five cast will include stars from the previous installments such as Gibson, Paul Walker, Vin Diesel, Ludacris, Jordana Brewster, and Lucas Black. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson has also signed on as a Detective in the film.
Fast Five is slated for a 2011 release with Justin Lin directing.
The last one wasn’t good, nor bad. It was much better than number 3 at least (from what I can remember). So regardless of how they are liked or not by critics around the world, they are going to keep making more of these movies. Why? Well, because fans keep paying to see them. It’s simple: they like the action, the cast and the cars. The fours films together have made almost $960 million worldwide. I’ll probably see this when it comes out (like I have for all of them). It’s also important to note that the cast coming back is an important element. And adding Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson to the cast, I believe is even better.
Personally, I love that they are currently filming in Puerto Rico. In the picture (with all the cast), all the way to the left side, that’s Tego Calderon. And all the way to the right side of the picture, that’s Don Omar. They are both well-known, famous music artists from Puerto Rico (Reggaeton genre). Both of them where on the last installment, so it’s cool that they are included in this new one too.
What do you guys think?
