The Fast & Furious franchise is one of the most popular and profitable ones out there. The level of action constantly escalates with every movie, but this time, the i may actually end up in space. Because they’ve milked almost every terrain or action sequence to do on earth, the makers probably felt they need to take it outside earth this time.
Actor and rapper Ludacris appeared on a interview with SiriusXM, where the interviewers asked him if F&F 9 will really be taking place in space. Ludacris did not downright confirm this, but gave out strong hints that it could happen. “I will say that you are very intuitive, because you said something right, but I’m not going to give it away,” he said.
There is no doubt that the Fast And Furious franchise started off with a bang, but has dragged on and released some unnecessary and nonsensical movies along the way, so them going to space is definitely weird but well within the range of Fast And Furious logic.
