Muhammad Farrukh Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 No Fast, No Furious for Statham Action star will not join Vin Diesel and the gang. Last fall we heard that Universal was talking to Jason Statham about joining the sixth (and seventh!) installments of the Fast and the Furious series. But now, alas, word has come that the pairing will not happen. Twitch Film, who broke that story back in October, now report that "things have been proceeding on the films since but, alas, they will be moving along without Statham. The two sides were unable to work things [out]." It would've been a match made in heaven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

44MLX Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 OMFG! I really wanted to see Statham in Fast & Furious! I agree with @Muhammad Farrukh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoom7000 Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 Yeah, have to agree. As much as I am a fan of most Statham films (barring Crank 2!) I just don't think he would have fit in to the Fast and the Furious line up. I think the line up is just fine as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sava700 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 NO seeing as how this film will time line after Drift its best to bring in Lucas Black whom plays Sean and was seen at the end racing up against Vin (Dom). I don't see any other way to locate this flim considering the extra scene at the end of Fast Five points to "you know who" being alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pygmy_Hippo Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Shame that, I was hoping that if they continued hiring bald guys to drive fast cars I'd get my shot around Fast and Furious 18 :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
