Fast 9: Ludacris on Getting to Space Before Tom Cruise
With director Justin Lin’s F9 (Fast 9) now playing around the world, I recently had the chance to speak with Ludacris about making the sequel which is now playing around the world. During the fun interview he talked about how their franchise beat Tom Cruise to space, what fans would be surprised to learn about the making of F9, what he knows about Fast 10, what it’s like behind-the-scenes when they’re making a Fast movie, and more.
As you’ve seen in the trailers, F9 sees Dom (Vin Diesel) enjoying his quiet life off the grid with his wife (Michelle Rodriguez) and son but is pulled back to the action when his estranged brother (John Cena) comes back into his life. As you can easily surmise, this causes Dom and his “family” to have to come together to stop Cena from carrying out his master plan. F9 (Fast and Furious 9) also stars Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson), Han Lue (Sung Kang), Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster), Ramsey (Nathalie Emmanuel), Sean Boswell (Lucas Black), Twinkie (Bow Wow), Earl Hu (Jason Tobin), Magdalene Shaw (Helen Mirren), and The Fate of the Furious villain Cipher (Charlize Theron). Also joining the cast are Cardi B, J. D. Pardo, Shea Whigham, Anna Sawai, Michael Rooker, Finn Cole, Vinnie Bennett, Ozuna, and Francis Ngannou.
Check out what Ludacris had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about.
