As filming continues, more and more action scenes appear, and Matthew has to come to the camera from time to time to show his skills, but those too dangerous action scenes and drag racing scenes are still completed by stunt stand-ins, and professional people do professional things, which is a general rule in Hollywood.

After talking to Matthew about that time, Justin Lin completely put aside some of his concerns and came to make this film as always.

Frankly speaking, since Matthew took over the series, "Fast and Furious" has inevitably undergone some changes, the most prominent point is that drag racing has begun to be cased, and action has gradually become the core.

While all the action scenes revolve around the core of drag racing, strictly speaking, the Fast & Furious franchise has become an action movie in the guise of drag racing.

As Matthew said, as a top-level commercial production, it is impossible to support it with four consecutive films, so a large number of action scenes have been added, and logging has become the core concept of the series.

This series will give the audience fragrant car beauties, give the audience speed and passion! Give the audience refreshment, not connotation. Give simplicity, not brain-burning.

Matthew's purpose is simple, this film only needs to bring the audience the same visual feast and lingering joy as ever.

This is an action movie that flashes the central nervous system in both eyes, boils adrenal hormones rise sharply, and hormones are secreted at full capacity.

As a result, the scenes in the filming became more and more intense, the violence became more and more escalating, the plot routines became simpler and simpler, the rivalry became more and more direct, and sports cars, tanks and planes took turns.

Now that the framework and goals have been determined, the filming of the film naturally cannot be ambiguous.

Ten days after Matthew's filming at Pinewood, director Justin Lin moved to the streets of London to start filming, and the Chinese-American director, with Matthew's full support, decided to let himself go completely during the shooting, wanting to detonate a scrapped tank purchased by the crew near the Palace of Westminster.

If you want to blow up a military tank, even if it is decommissioned and scrapped, it is not something that the crew can do with the gunpowder that they use, it requires real explosives.

There have been people at London City Hall who have been following the crew to supervise the filming, and when they heard about this plan, they immediately jumped out.

The Palace of Westminster, which is the British parliament building, detonated tanks in the vicinity, how could the officials in London agree? What if the wave arrives at the Palace of Westminster?

London City Hall immediately intervened and strictly forbade the crew to shoot the explosion scene on the streets of London.

In desperation, filming here had to be postponed temporarily, and after Matthew and Justin Lin discussed, they decided to set up a set up for filming at Pinewood Studios, and the crew had to change the plan temporarily.

"The British don't have any spirit of entertainment at all. ”

Watching the tanks load and move away, Justin Lin couldn't help but complain, "It's too rigid." ”

Matthew looked at the Palace of Westminster, shrugged, and said, "Are they worried that we're going to turn into V-shaped monsters?"

Like the White House, this ancient edifice is the target of many movies that are happy to destroy.

The plan was changed at short notice, the crew moved to other streets, filming some more ordinary daily life and driving scenes, and the London Guildhall side was a little sensitive, and the number of officials supervising the crew increased from one person to three, as if the crew was really going to blow up the Houses of Parliament.

As the filming progressed, the members of the racing family rushed to the UK one after another, and the logging tired were assembled again.

Due to the restrictions of traffic and other conditions in London, the crew began to switch back and forth between Pinewood Studios and the streets of London, filming the fun of the big family in the studio during the day, and then moving to the streets of London at night to shoot those extremely intense action scenes.

At the same time, more troubles began to appear, and the crew received a lot of protests, many London citizens near the filming location complained that the sound of car motors roaring at night made them unable to sleep.

London Guildhall also issued a notice to the crew, restricting the crew from filming in the city after 12 midnight.

London, an international metropolis, is very densely populated, and filming in the city will always be subject to various restrictions, which is also a helpless thing, it can't always be paralyzed by London's traffic, all for one crew, this is not Rio de Janeiro, it is impossible to achieve.

Matthew also misses Rio de Janeiro a little, where the municipal administration is chaotic and money is open, no matter what the crew shoots, it is very convenient, and most of the final climactic scenes of "Fast and Furious 5" are filmed on the streets of Rio de Janeiro, which is unimaginable if it were replaced by London.

There are always various accidents during filming, and Justin Lin is also making adjustments, such as changing a drag race scene in downtown London to a tunnel in the suburbs, and the crew can block the tunnel from 10 p.m. until 6 a.m. the next morning, all for filming.

"Fast & Furious 6, Scene 52, Act 21!" the assistant director's sign is placed in front of the camera lens, "Start now!"

The sound of the board sounded, and the crew quickly entered the shooting state.

Matthew drove the Mercedes-AMG and turned into the tunnel, where five cameras were clearly captured from the open windows of the tunnel.

Although most of the drag racing scenes are stunt doubles, some close-up scenes still need to be completed by Matthew himself.

Of course, he didn't drive fast, not even 50 miles per hour, and the visual effect of the high-speed racing car was mainly done by cameras and post-production technology.

The camera passed in one go, Matthew drove around in a circle, drove back from another road, and after parking the car, he stood near Justin Lin and watched the crew shoot Giselle's shootout scene.

Gal Gadot is sharp, whether he draws a gun or shoots, he is like those who use guns in the army.

After two "Fast and Furious" movies in a row, she seems to have been stereotyped and has become a representative of Hollywood's new generation of action actresses.

Another point is that she is a little stronger than before, and her muscles have increased significantly, which should be the effect of long-term fitness.

At the end of the night's filming, when the sky was white, the crew announced that it was over, but Matthew could not go back to the hotel to rest and needed to go to the set with Justin Lin for an interview.

Publicity and promotion is a part of a film that can never be relaxed.

On the way to the Pinewood Studios, Matthew took a nap, and as soon as the car entered the factory gate, he woke up, and when the car stopped, he pushed the door open and got out of the car, and immediately walked to the press room.

Gal Gadot's car was also parked nearby, and Matthew turned to take a look, just in time to see Gal Gadot open the door and get out of the car.

"Morning, Gadot. Matthew said hello,

Gal Gadot immediately took two quick steps and responded with a smile, "Good morning, Matthew." ”

Now that they met, the two simply walked to the press room on the set together, and Matthew asked curiously as he walked, "You look stronger than before." ”

"I've stepped up my fitness lately. Gal Gadot didn't mince words, "I've gained almost ten pounds of muscle. ”

Hearing her say this, Matthew was a little curious, "Isn't weight all a woman's natural enemy?"

Before Gal Gadot was thin as if a gust of wind could blow it down, but he continued to lose weight.

Gal Gadot smiled, "I'm competing for a role and need to strengthen my muscles. ”

Matthew suddenly thought of the project that Zack Schneider and Warner Bros. were planning and asked, "Is it Princess Diana Prinz?"

He has an extremely close cooperation with Warner Bros., and has always had a good relationship with Zack Schneider, knows a lot of insider developments, "Superman: Man of Steel" has been completed, Warner Bros. is full of confidence this time, although the film will not be released until next year, but he already intends to use this new Superman movie as the beginning of the DC Justice League cinematic universe, and plans the next one with Zack Snyder.

It was a movie called "Batman v Superman", and from planning to filming to release, Warner Bros. planned for two to three years, including not only Batman and Superman, but also Wonder Woman.

Probably Warner Bros. and DC Comics want to use the way the Big Three of Justice appeared together, as well as the shocking effect it brings, to step over the distance thrown by Marvel and really catch up with Marvel.

Gal Gadot nodded slightly, "Yes, I'm competing for the role of Wonder Woman. ”

Sure enough, Matthew sighed in his heart, with today's social situation, as long as Wonder Woman can match with women's rights and not make some low-level mistakes, the chance of success is still very high.

Then again, why did Zack Schneider pick Gal Gadot among so many candidates? It is said that even Gal Gadot himself was very, very surprised.

It is estimated that Gal Gadot met a noble person like himself.

Thinking of this, Matthew said slowly, "I'll say hello to Zach and Warner. ”

Hearing this, Gal Gadot hesitated, suddenly raised his left hand, and said, "Matthew, I'm already engaged. ”

Matthew knew that some of his previous performances had caused Gal Gadot to misunderstand, and shook his head with a smile, "Gadot, we are friends, isn't it normal for friends to help each other? Besides, I can only promise that Zach will give you a fair chance to audition, and I can't help you get the role." ”

The world is so big, does every woman he meets have to have a leg with him? He's not so stupid.

Gal Gadot smiled embarrassedly, "I'm sorry. ”

Matthew then noticed that she had a ring on her left ring finger and asked, "Are you engaged?"

"Hmm. Gal Gadot nodded, "His surname is Stanton, and he has the opportunity to introduce you to each other." ”

Matthew nodded and said, "Gadot, I have a girlfriend too." ”

"I know, Margot Robbie, I know her. Gal Gadot said.

The two came to the press room at this time, Justin Lin had already arrived, due to last night's shooting, they came relatively early, and waited a while, and the leading actors such as Paul Walker, Tyrese Gibson, Jason Statham and Jordana Brewster arrived one after another.
