Family love - a unique spice of the "Fast and Furious" series

After more than a year of postponement, the 9th episode of the “Fast and Furious” series has just officially debuted to audiences in several markets around the world.

Although not officially released in North America, the film almost immediately created a box office phenomenon in many countries, even though it was still affected by the COVID-19 epidemic. One of the things that creates value for the series is the emotional element between brothers and family – a unique spice that has maintained the appeal of “Fast and Furious” for the past 20 years.

Right from the first movies, besides the incredible action scenes, the family element has become one of the important elements that create the “Fast and Furious” brand. And in a conversation with a reporter from 24h Motion, the film’s director and actors shared about this.

According to director Justin Lin: “I think the idea of family is a very key point of the series and makes it touch the audience’s emotions. All of us have brothers, families, relatives.” We all understand the emotional levels of family love, every time we reminisce, through different stages of ups and downs or hopes for the future. Therefore, everyone can see themselves in it. “.

Actor Vin Diesel: “The audience not only wants to know how big the action scene will be, they are also interested in how the characters in the movie have changed over the past 20 years, which is what I’m most interested in. Still spinning around the main character Dominic Toretto, the changes and stories of the family members are the core of the entire film story.”

Meanwhile, according to actor Michelle Rodiguez: “For Dom, he in this movie is already a father, wants to withdraw from adventures, does not want to bet his life again and is forced to choose between facing challenges when it involves your family or simply turning your back.”

“As for Letty, she realized her ideal and was determined to pursue it” – Michelle added.

Besides the beautiful action scenes, the return of old family members, or the appearance of new characters as well as their relationships is something that many audiences watch.

Actor John Cena: “This part of the film has focused on conveying the entire spirit of the Fast franchise – an action masterpiece, what made the film famous, raising many questions for the audience: The return of Han and the appearance of the male lead Dominic’s younger brother… and all those questions will be answered when you enjoy the movie in theaters.”

Actor Sung Kang: “The character Han in this comeback is older, he is more mature and life is not just about adventures and fun… He has experienced loss, lost people. He loves and now he is giving his love to others. What I like is the character development of this character after so many years.”

After the 9th film, the final film is expected to be filmed in January and divided into 2 episodes, ending 2 decades of the story of the “Fast and Furious” series.
