Fast And The Furious isn’t revving up to go to outer space
Vin Diesel and his team of writers have gotten a surprising amount of mileage out of the Fast And The Furious’ central premise of “people doing things in really fast cars.” Sometimes, those things are part of a criminal enterprise; other times, they just make up what it means to be a family (at least, in Diesel’s mind). The franchise has gone abroad and aloft, and when its eighth installment, The Fate Of The Furious, goes into wide release on Friday, the group will find itself in Antarctica or something. Just don’t expect Dom Toretto to speed or otherwise become enraged in space, warns franchise scribe Chris Morgan.
