'Fast and The Furious 4' Gets a Title and Official Plot!
Filed under: Action, Universal, Remakes and Sequels
For fans of The Fast and the Furious franchise, there were still a few pretty big questions hanging over the movie. Mainly, just what exactly was this movie going to be about ... other than fast cars that look real cool when they go real fast? Well, wonder no longer because Universal has announced the official title and the final plot synopsis for the latest installment of the racing franchise. Now titled Fast and Furious (yo, they left out the 'the!'), the story centers on reuniting Dom Torretto (Vin Diesel) and agent Brian O'Connor (Paul Walker) along with vets from the first film (Jordana Brewster and Michelle Rodriguez).According to Universal's description, "When a crime brings them back to L.A., fugitive ex-con Dom Toretto (Diesel) reignites his feud with agent Brian O'Conner (Walker). But as they are forced to confront a shared enemy, Dom and Brian must give in to an uncertain new trust if they hope to outmanuever him."
So far there have been a few on-set photos, and don't forget there was an early script review from Latino Review back in November. It would seem that it might have been legit since it got some of the details right (including some spoilerific details regarding the fate of Rodrgiuez's character, Letty). Director Justin Lin is already talking about making one more film before retiring the series, but we'll have to wait to see how high gas prices climb first. Fast and Furious will arrive in theaters on June 5, 2009.

The new movie is based 5 years after Brian gives Dom his keys to the orange Toyota Supra. The new movie clues you in on what happens before Tokyo Drift. I think the movie will be super bad ass. If you want to read the write up for the opening act of Fast and Furious heres the link below

Chronologically speaking, this must take place somewhere between the 1st flick and the third... since Han is in this new one?

I think that the title should be "The Fast & The Furious: Fuego En El Barrio" b/c the movie takes place in LA and Mexico, its a tight a$$ title for the movie, and b/c the meaning of "Fuego En El Barrio" is "Fire In The District (Ghetto or turf...etc.) and also it means that the characters in the movie are 'surrounded' by this 'fire of madness' between them and the bad guys.

its a about time they com out with it. i think they should make a different plot cuz that whole going to the cop side is getting old. they should be agianst them for once not working with them. showing how they try to survive with the cops on they a§§. also they should have tirrecce gibson in it with vin diesel cuz that would be da bomb. have a mad cop chase with all three of them agianst the whole city of cops. with walker in a skyline, diesel in the supercharged charger, and gibson in something besides that gay purple spider. but still cant wait for this to come out!

I wonder if they thought about the implications of the name. I know of a shop out in Las Vegas that is named Fast and Furious Performance and they left the "the" off so it wouldn't have copyright implications. Kind of funny, this guy out in Vegas could sue the franchise for using the name of his company even though the name of his company is actually inspired by the movie......

I wanted this to be like Tokyo drift with Lucas Black '' Sean Boswell''
Like Tokyo drift 2 or somthing. I really enjoyed that movie, more than the other FAST & FURIOUS.....
I hope they at least show the final race.
