Speaking with Variety during the official 25th anniversary screening for The Fast and the Furious, Diesel confirmed Fast Forever will begin filming in December of this year. The actor stated that, so long as events continue moving as planned, the film will start shooting before the year is over. He also acknowledged the long wait between movies, revealing the script made him cry. He praises everyone involved in getting the movie to where it is, expressing emotion and excitement for where the story concludes.
Check out what the actor had to say below:
We start shooting in December, if I can make good on the request from the studio. I’m in a good place, though. I had to go through four sets of writers, four years of development, to get to something that I felt would be worthy of a finale. And when I read the script a couple of weeks ago, [I cried].
I’m going to tell you something personal. It was after four different writers, four years of development, and after I read the script, halfway through, one tear. By the end of the script that we crafted and worked so hard to make right for you after four years, I was crying. I couldn’t hold it back, and I had to tell everyone. And my sister said, ‘No more crying, bro.’ So I just want to say that sometimes, even the toughest guys in the world need to cry.
More to come...
