Opportunities to make history are rare, which explains the excitement exuded by Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez on Thursday as they shot scenes for Fast And Furious 8. The movie made history as the first US film to be shot in Cuba. The streets of Havana were lined with thrilled crowds as the actors drove past them. Vin Diesel was particularly elated as he punched the air while behind the wheel of a well-maintained 1957 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser.

Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez were both ecstatic as they commenced filming for the latest installment of the Fast and Furious franchise, Fast 8, in Cuba. Michelle looked stunning in circular reflective sunglasses while Vin, who plays Dominic Toretto, referred to his character’s Cuban heritage in an Instagram video he shared. He expressed his joy at being in Havana, Cuba with his director F. Gary Grey, whom he worked with about 17 years ago, despite the doubts of many that the location would be possible. The 48-year-old actor couldn’t contain his excitement at being surrounded by beautiful people and the love he felt there.

A motivated individual, Director F. Gary Grey utilized his mobile phone to capture footage of the enthusiastic locals as they drove by.

Michelle appeared to be thoroughly enjoying the ambiance of the socialist city of Havana.

Vin was cruising past the proles in his classic Mercury Turnpike Cruiser, giving them a friendly wave as he went by. He couldn’t help but express his excitement about being in Cuba for the filming of Fast 8 – the birthplace of the Torettos. Dom Toretto himself was back in his homeland and ready to take on new challenges, with Gary at his side. This historic move to film in Cuba came just weeks after President Obama’s visit and the renewed relationship between the US and Cuba. It was a proud moment for Vin and the entire team.

Creating a significant moment: Vin and his companions were participating in the inaugural American film production staged in Cuba.

The guests received the red carpet treatment as they arrived. The driveway was so smooth that it appeared as if they were driving over newly paved asphalt.

Vin, a documentary filmmaker, captured the significant moment by recording a video on his cellphone.

The city was described as paradise by a wealthy individual, with no further details on the context of the statement. The upcoming movie Fast 8 will see the return of popular actors Dwayne Johnson, Tyrese Gibson, and Eva Mendes, along with the legendary Kurt Russell. This film will be the first in the franchise to not feature Paul Walker, who unfortunately passed away in 2013 due to a car accident. The only other film in the series without Walker was the 2006 spin-off, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift.

Vin Diesel couldn’t contain his excitement as he shared his joy over his character Dom Toretto returning to his homeland. He referred to it as his “home, home, homeland” and expressed how thrilled he was about it.

The sight of the helicopter flying above left the locals in complete disbelief, as it was truly a remarkable sight.

While the sun was setting, they captured some somber scenes during filming, creating striking shadows. Vin Diesel isn’t just relying on one old franchise to pad his retirement fund, though. Recently, he was also working on the latest installment of “xXx: Return of Xander Cage” with Indian actress Deepika Padukone in Ontario, Canada. In the film, Vin plays extreme sportsman Xander Cage, who comes back from a near-death experience to embark on another difficult mission. Co-starring alongside him are Toni Collette and Samuel L. Jackson. Fans can expect to see the movie in theaters in January 2017.

It was a moment of revolution when the filming started and the flag of the country was waving nearby.

The Secret Behind the Illusion: A guy was perched inside a transparent container, located atop an alternate mode of transportation.

The camera was mounted on a different vehicle to capture the happenings.

Get ready for an exciting movie release on April 14, 2017 as it showcases some of our favorite characters and elements.
