Although for all viewers who love the "Fast and Furious" movie series, it is hard to believe that Van Diesel, who plays the soul of the series, Don boss, has abandoned the series twice.
But to make matters worse, the third shock is waiting to happen: he has a full-scale conflict with the new member Dashi Johnson, detonating the "Fast and Furious" crisis.
Dashi Johnson joined this big family in "Fast and Furious 5". He seems to be the only ruthless character who can stop Don, and the audience is of course eagerly looking forward to these two behemoths fighting on the screen.
"Fast and Furious 5" is so successful that it led the entire film series to fly over the US$200 million box office in the United States and the world's 600 million US dollars. Since then, all 4 movies have become super-sale action movies, and the "Fast and Furious" series have also Honored as one of the role models of action movies in film history.
Boulder plays the role of an agent of the United States Diplomatic Security Service in "Fast and Furious 5" and is responsible for arresting Tang boss. He and Van Diesel naturally wanted to create a more hostile atmosphere of incompatibility, but they didn't expect that this incompatibility would become innocent to each other.
1, disagreeable Dashi Johnson publicly talked about each other on social media
This should be the biggest disagreement in Hollywood, which pays attention to peace and wealth in recent years, and Dashi is the megaphone of public disagreement.
When filming "Fast and Furious 8", Dashi ridiculed on social media almost every week. Don’t forget Dashi Johnson is the best player in Hollywood, and every tweet he makes. At least there are more than 500,000 likes.
This makes his dynamics on Facebook or Instagram particularly noticed... and fans of course will not let go of his unintended sophistication.
is like this Facebook post: "A certain actor I worked with... is so timid that he dare not do everything. It's really candy ass."
Who is the golden branch? Everyone is naturally happy to guess.
guessing is of course the specialty of gossip media. Hollywood hasn't had such a good show of open mutuality for a long time-it was very popular in the 1950s.
More media have joined this gossip action: People magazine said that Van Diesel was very dissatisfied that Boulder was late every time he went to work, and even skipped work, which caused the crew’s schedule to be delayed and at the same time. Van Diesel, who is the producer of "Fast and Furious", of course can't stand it;
, but Page Six also has a balanced report, pointing out that Van Diesel himself is also a late ghost, so other actors must wait for him to work. Others felt very disrespectful, especially Boulder. He had lost patience.
But having said that, no matter who loves being late, Van Diesel himself is already one of the reasons that makes "Fast and Furious 8" troublesome. As the producer and the protagonist of the series, he was very critical of the director of "Fast and Furious 8", which led to a significant reduction in the production schedule of the entire movie. The problem is that almost no one has time to shoot "Fast and Furious 8", but Van Diesel is still "doing his best" to perform the audit work that the supervisor should be responsible for.
2, the candle burns! Even Wen Ziren has a headache in "Fast and Furious 8"
and directed "Fast and Furious 7" Wen Ziren was originally a favorite of Universal Pictures, because he accomplished the goal of an impossible mission in film history-starring in the actor After Paul Walker died in an accidental car accident, he continued to film the whole movie, and it seemed quite smooth.
But Wen Ziren was already in the battle of several film companies at the time-Warner Pictures desperately needed him to direct "Call of Souls 2"-completely unable to escape the production of "Fast and Furious 8".
even rescued Lin Yibin, the director of the "Fast and Furious" series. At this time, he has also chosen to direct "Star Trek" for Paramount Pictures. For a time, the directorship must find new faces from scratch.
And at this moment of urgency, producer Van Diesel began to "do his part": he is picky about all the details of all the action clips, and he has to repeat the confirmation many times in almost every small place; he will call in the middle of the night. All relevant production staff, asked everyone to hold a temporary meeting of the script to discuss all the lines of Mr. Tang repeatedly. The producer of
should do his best, manage the budget, and manage the schedule.However, this kind of work of supervising the crew should not be the culprit of increasing the workload of the crew. This kind of ineffective management will violate the original intention of making the process smoother through management.
What's interesting is that the part that Diesel has opinions about is all related to the role of Don Boss. This kind of obvious private use of public equipment makes it hard not to doubt the selfishness behind his "strict supervision." .
According to the authoritative media Hollywood reporter, Van Diesel already had this problem in "Fast and Furious 7".
At that time, Wen Ziren, who was missing a starring actor for no reason, had already burned his candles. He had to supervise the re-editing of the script, change the location, rearrange the shooting schedule, and find a way to make Paul Walker continue to appear in The Speed And Passion 7".
And at this moment of urgency, Van Diesel still requires his role to be perfect, which adds to Wen Ziren's burden. According to Hollywood reporters, Wen Ziren has health problems.
3, after thanking the article, completely parted ways?
But Boulder is not Wen Ziren, he is not used to the practice of tolerance for the overall situation.
Obviously, there are more and more conflicts between him and Diesel on the set-the gossip media is happy to see such conflicts. And even if we don’t need to believe in the gossip media’s chase, you can easily smell gunpowder through Jushi’s Instagram: After
finished "Fast and Furious 8", Jushi published a thank you note on Instagram. He thanked the director Gary in advance. Gray, then thanked Universal Pictures, then Scott Eastwood, Natalie Emmanuel, Tyrese Gibson, and the production team, staff... He even explained by the way, then Next he will go to shoot the new version of "Game of the Brave"-this man is really a professional user of social media!
However, there is something wrong, even though he said in the article "I am very proud to be a member of the Fast Family", but if you want to write an article thanking "Fast and Passion", how could you miss Fan Di? Searle?
Really, he thanked God for going to the next movie, but he didn't thank Van Diesel, and didn't even mention it. This is definitely not a clerical error or unintentional omission.
Dashi Johnson and Van Diesel had a close talk about their incompatibility afterwards. Of course, because Van Diesel was the producer of "Fast and Furious", he was equivalent to one of the directors of the movie. If you can't solve the two people The difference between them, not only will the film production fall into disaster, but the giant stone will also worry that Van Diesel will avenge his personal revenge-the power of the film producer is great.
Moreover, this conflict has intensified and spread to almost the entire crew: According to TMZ, all the actors of "Fast and Furious 8" are very dissatisfied with Giant Stone, because he was 10 days before "Fast and Furious 8" was completed. Let the conflict between him and Diesel surface, causing the final ending of "Fast and Furious 8" to be unsmooth. The result of this meeting of
is self-evident, so this thank you letter eventually became a farewell text: because Dashi Johnson has already made it clear that he and Jason Statham will not return to "Fast and Furious 9".
Since the two of them were still filming "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" when "Fast and Furious 9" opened, they did not participate. However, this kind of reason is okay to deceive children. He and Statham have already finished the "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" scene as early as this year, so why don't they hurry back to the team? It seems that they will not return to the team.
In the end, "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" has evolved from an outgoing film plan that was still in the evaluation stage to a series of films that must be made today—Universal Pictures because of the discrepancy between Boulder and Van Diesel. It is impossible to get the big star with the highest box office of the year to get out, and Boulder must be given a special place.
And "Fast and Furious 8" has proved that this movie, which lost its veteran Paul Walker, still sold more than $1 billion at the global box office. This means that the audience at least recognize Dashi Johnson’s performance in the film, and for Universal Pictures, they must make a decision to force Dashi to continue to be Van Diesel in the future "Fast and Furious 9" Little brother; or give him another piece of new sky?
Yes, despite what Jushi said, "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" is to "expand "Fast and Furious"Possibility and breadth of the movie universe", but this will not be a "Fast and Furious" series of movies. It will completely separate from Van Diesel’s "Fast and Furious", even in terms of family concepts. "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" must be done more thoroughly than my own.
