Director James Wan Shows Off ‘Fast & Furious 7’ Set Photo!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: Fast & Furious 7 is less than a year away at this point, meaning that James Wan and crew are hard at work crafting the franchise’s next sequel.

Wan today shared a neat set photo from the film, featuring the venerable director leaning on a beautiful Aston Martin. The photo is complete with the caption: “my villain drives a nice set of wheels. #astonmartin”, so it’s safe to say that the vehicle probably belongs to Jason Statham’s character.

Take a look at the image below, and let us know what you think! Fast & Furious 7 hits theatres on July 11, 2014!

Lucas Black Set To Return To ‘Fast & Furious’ Franchise!

by Derek Kraneveldt

Briefly: I dropped out of the Fast & Furious series years ago, but as we all learned when Fast & Furious 6 hit theatres this Summer, the series is more popular than ever.

Now that both Paul Walker and Vin Diesel have returned as series regulars, fans have wondered if the Tokyo Drifter, Lucas Black, would be returning as well. Deadline learned today that Lucas is indeed set to return to the franchise, and for more than one film too. Along with the anticipated Fast 7, which is set to hit theatres next July, he’ll appear in at least two further instalments.

That’s a lot of Fast & Furious.

Are you happy to see the actor return? Or do you wish that Sean Boswell would just stay in Japan? Sound out below!

Final Action Packed Trailer Released For ‘Fast & Furious 6’

by Shawn Madden

Universal Pictures have released a final trailer for Justin Lin’s Fast & Furious 6 and it’s definitely filled with “summer blockbuster awesomeness”. The trailer contains some good looks at the film’s many action sequences that even include Dwayne Johnson dropping some straight up wrestling moves on peopole. The film looks like a fun filled action packed ride that we are definitely going to be on when it hits theaters in a few weeks.

Since Dom (Diesel) and Brian’s (Walker) Rio heist toppled a kingpin’s empire and left their crew with $100 million, our heroes have scattered across the globe.  But their inability to return home and living forever on the lam have left their lives incomplete.

Meanwhile, Hobbs (Johnson) has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers across 12 countries, whose mastermind (Evans) is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty (Rodriguez).  The only way to stop the criminal outfit is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs asks Dom to assemble his elite team in London.  Payment?  Full pardons for all of them so they can return home and make their families whole again.

Sony Pictures to Develop Film Based on Valiant Comics’ Bloodshot!

by Steven Kunz

Sony Pictures has closed a deal to acquire the film rights to the Valiant Comics series, Bloodshot, a 1992 comic book series that continues to be one of the revamped publisher’s strongest properties.

The story is about a killer for the mafia who is framed for a murder he didn’t commit, thanks to his mob family betraying him.  When he goes into Witness protection, he is immediately kidnapped and his body goes through the experimental procedure, “Project Rising Spirit.” His body is injected with nanomachinery, also refered to as ‘nanites’, that gives him superhuman abilities at the cost of his memories. He eventually escapes his captors and goes on a journey to rediscover the person he once was.

The script is being written by Jeff Wadlow, whose previous credits include the drama/horror movie, Cry-Wolf, and the screenplay for the horror thriller, Prey. Reportedly, the deal came out of Wadlow’s love for the comic and agreed to write the script on spec, and when Sony saw the script, they bought the rights. The film is also being produced by Neal Moritz, producer of The Green Hornet and the Fast & Furious series.

The idea is to develop the property as something that X-Men First Class director Matthew Vaughn can direct. Hopefully, the movie doesn’t come in a foil edition.
