    Default Fast & Furious Casting Call

    "Fast and Furious 7" (yes, 7) is about to start filming in metro Atlanta.Look for Vin Diesel, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Paul Walker and Tyrese Gibson to show up in Atlanta soon. Local rapper and actor Ludacris, who has appeared in a number of the F&F movies, will be back for his role as a wisecracking computer genius.
    A casting call for extras seeks Middle Eastern men who have experience as mechanics. Email your photos and informationto [email protected] if that's you.
    The plot, according to imdb: "After Dominic Toretto and his crew helped take down Owen Shaw, his brother Ian Shaw now wants revenge."
    Sounds awesome.
    F&F 5, which was set mostly in Rio, did a good bit of filming in metro Atlanta. Locations for that movie including the Georgia Dome parking lot and the Gwinnett County Detention Center. F&F 7 will film in Gwinnett County.

    If you see some cars taking two minutes to go a 1/4 mile, that would be the filming....

    I didn't do too bad for a couple hours on set with my old '03 Cobra for a Titlemax commercial. Less then a grand but I was only there for about 3-4 hours. It was an overall very fun experience.

    LOL... I was on Luckie street today. One of my company's work sites is on Luckie.



    Might be time to work the night shift and crash the party.



    Edit: My bad, they are filming during daylight... I can just work as normal.

    Meet/seen the big stars mentioned .........

    Doesn't matter I just hope the story line/ plot is as good as the last few have been.

    I will say in the last movie the leap across the highway was so full of S$$t it's not funny.

    You jump across a two lane highway on a bridge that's pushing it but it is bull sh&t movie.
