After five films of street racing, sophisticated scheming and sidestepping the law, the Fast & Furious squad has surfaced as a formidable heist team.
Now the Fast & Furious squad in speeding into a new mission with the franchise’s sixth installment, hitting theaters stateside on Friday, which sees them face off against a villainous, tech-savvy former Special Ops soldier, Owen Shaw (Luke Evans).
But what if Fast‘s foe, for once, was not just a baddie, but instead another heist team from film history? Let’s imagine caper flicks could collide: What other big-screen crook crew would like Fast team like to challenge?
“The original Italian Job guys, with all the car stuff that they were doing,” Paul Walker told Celebuzz‘s Cory Lopez. “That makes sense. We’d roll ‘em up.”
But Evans threw it back to Quentin Tarantino’s breakout film: “It would be a bloodbath if it were Reservoir Dogs, wouldn’t it?” he reasoned. “I’d like to see that [but] that’s a tough call [of who would win.]”
“I would say Oceans Eleven, because for me, that’s sophistication versus street,” explained Michelle Rodriguez. “So it would be kind of cool to see the two even team up. That’d be kind of cool.”
Tyrese Gibson and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges agreed on Oceans, but for not quite the same reason.
“It’d be a great movie because they have each of someone who is similar to the characters in our movie,” Ludacris said. “They had the tech guy, they had multiethnic, they had somebody that was eating all the time.”
“I would go against Don Cheadle,” Tyrese chimed in. “Don Cheadle, who is the darkest of them all? Let’s do this. Come on, Cheadle. I’ve been tanning much longer than you black man. Let’s do this.”
“That’s definitely a challenge,” Ludacris added. “Let’s go.”
