Lil Wayne and Liza Lapira to star in new Fast And Furious Film!


Shooting on Justin Lin’s “Fast and Furious” is already well underway, but new castmembers are still being added. First up is actress Liza Lapira, who IMDB.com has listed as playing an FBI agent name Sophie Trinh, a character that will be giving Paul Walker’s Brian O’Conner a hand tracking down some wanted felons. The other casting is rapper Lil Wayne, who is currently in negotiations to join the fourth installment in the popular car franchise.

News about Lil Wayne comes from Contact Music, who has no word on who Lil Wayne would play, but casting a well-known hip-hop artist would seem to jive with the previous “Fast and Furious” films. Ludacris filled the role in “2 Fast 2 Furious”, and “Lil Bow Wow” did likewise in the previous installment, “Tokyo Drift”, which was also directed by Justin Lin.

Fans of TV, especially CBS’ Navy NCIS, will probably recall Liza Lapira (pictured, below) as Special Agent Michelle Lee on the show. The Filipino actress was also recently in the surprise hit “21″, about MIT students who use their skills to break Vegas casinos.

    We all knew that a rapper had to be in this one again, but I have a feeling Lil Wayne is going to try too hard. Hopefully he won’t be worse than Ja Rule. Ludacris was pretty decent, he took the role seriously, and Bow Wow tried a little hard but wasn’t a complete embarassment due to a couple more serious scenes (the fight on the roof and the soccer game). If fact the only line he really messed up on, due to it being a dumb line that not even Tom Hanks could pull off, was the “DK picked this mountain for a reason…” line. But Lil Wayne seems like the kind of guy that’s very concerned with his image, and hopefully will have a small part like Ja Rule did.

    In 2009, the same year the next “Fast and Furious” movie comes out, the only authentic look at the street racing scene will be released as a full feature length street racing documentary.

    This documentary has been in the works for over 8 years, and pokes fun at the “Fast and Furious” series, as well as attempting to debunk some other racing myths.

    Featuring interviews with the most important figures in automotive history, this street racing documentary will finally shed light on the topic which has never been documented accurately, up until this point.

    i think in this movie they should have underground streetracing world championships and they should think of making this movie in the uk that way you can finish the series with some of the characters in the previous films and give the storyline a proper ending.
