Tyrese Gibson on Fate of the Furious and the Value of Diversity. Tyrese Gibson has been a hallmark of the Fast and Furious franchise for nearly fifteen years, ever since the actor made his debut co- starring alongside Paul Walker in the 2. Fast 2 Furious. In the years since, the franchise has grown from its mid- budget beginnings as street- racing fuelled Point Break- style two- handers into a behemoth, globe- trotting action ensemble, transformed through the lens of four directors, and lost a beloved member of the family when Paul Walker died in 2. But no amount of evolution or behind- the- scenes tragedy has stopped the franchise from thriving as international box office sensation and a summer blockbuster staple that fans eagerly return to time and time again.

As we begin the new year, I strongly believe we are entering a period of great danger and even greater uncertainty. Events are unfolding within and without the movie.

The franchise saw another big money win this year with Fate of the Furious, the eighth installment, helmed by Straight Outta Compton director F. Gary Gray, which has soared to more than $1. Now the film is hitting home video and with the Blu- ray landing today, I recently had the remarkable experience of traveling to Havana, Cuba where Fate of the Furious made history as the first American movie to film in the long- embargoed country in decades.

While the international franchise has traveled far and wide in its day, leaving the streets of Los Angeles behind in favor of exotic locations like Brazil, Abu Dhabi, and Iceland, Havana offers a completely new landscape for the action series and endows the film’s opening set- piece with a sense of history and a singular texture. After touring the filming locations of the historic shoot, I sat down for a chat with Gibson. The actor, who recently launched his travel start- up Voltron Travel, talked about how the franchise always continues to evolve its diversity, why audiences are still hooked on the family’s escapades sixteen years after The Fast and The Furious hit theaters, his craziest moment filming the action- packed sequel, how he approaches the technically challenging scenes, and where in the world he wants the Furious films to go next. Kenichi Season 1 Episode 1 there.

Do you feel vindicated since you weren’t here for the shoot? Now you got to come to Cuba? TYRESE GIBSON: I don’t know if vindicated is the word. The Walking Dead Season 3 Watch Online 123Movies. I wish I would have been here for that, you know.

I told Vin I was pissed that I wasn’t in those scenes. I could have did hair and makeup for Charlize. Would have carried her luggage. Could have did anything. She’s a fun addition to the franchise.

GIBSON: Oh yeah. When you got the script for this one, because it’s such a flip of the format we’ve come to know with these films, not just introducing this villain but making the hero play villain as well. What was your reaction? GIBSON: I guess, you know, we had conversations about diversity and even though we pride ourselves on diversity, that’s been our message for 1. You know, we got Jordana, Gal Gadot, Michelle Rodriguez, but we wanted to up the ante as far as female presence. We didn’t just want another girl to be in the movie, “Ah, save me.” We wanted to really have a strong character to come into the franchise, and Charlize was the answer. We hope to keep going in that direction, because we can’t sing diversity and then not diversify as far as more women in the franchise, and more importantly the way women are portrayed.

It’s very true. This franchise probably the best example of diversity in studio filmmaking right now. GIBSON: It seems to be a new theme in Hollywood, diversity. Yeah. Image via Universal. GIBSON: I think the Oscar So White campaign really sparked … Because you didn’t want to be the Oscars, so everybody in Hollywood was like, well, before the heat comes down.

The Golden Globes diversified. Just everybody ended up diversifying as far as handing out awards to more diverse folks in Hollywood because at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter what your race is. If you’re waking up every day and you’re doing the work, you deserve an opportunity to be awarded like everybody else.

Absolutely. GIBSON: And I think for me, we’ve been singing diversity for 1. And it’s proving not just like the right thing to do but profitable. People respond to it. I think it’s probably part of why this franchise has endured. People love seeing themselves on screen, and all sorts of people can see themselves on screen in these movies. GIBSON: Absolutely.

I was curious your thoughts on that endurance, because 1. And the fans, and I’m one of them, are hugely into it. Why do you think it has conjured that kind of love, even though it evolves with every new film?

Why do you think people stick with the family through everything? GIBSON: Well, family is a universal language. It’s unrealistic, especially in 2. When you see diversity, it’s a beautiful thing to experience a movie with this much action and adrenaline being served up with such a beautiful cast of all included folks. I think the other thing is people grew up with us, you know? So I wish TV shows like Married With Children were still on TV, or Martin.

Those were some of my favorites from back in the day. I never wanted to miss an episode, and I felt like the more years it was on TV, I was able to grow up with it. It’s kind of crazy.

Now that you say that, I just remembered being in summer school, a freshman in high school seeing the first Fast and Furious and talking about it with my friends after class, and now I’m here in this interview as an adult. That’s half of my life, isn’t that kind of crazy?

GIBSON: [Laughs] Yeah! Yeah. Well, I wasn’t in the first one, so I remember we were talking about Fast 1 when I was in the neighborhood, so it’s just all a very interesting time right now. One of the other hallmarks of the franchise, of course, is the sort of globetrotting extreme action that we all love. Image via Universal Pictures. GIBSON: Right. Did you have a particular sequence that was your favorite to shoot on this one or that was absolutely wild? I imagine they were all a bit wild. GIBSON: You know, honestly, Iceland was the wildest for me because it was just so freaking cold out there. Watch Fathers And Daughters Download Full. It just shook me up.

As a performer, what’s your approach to those massively technical set pieces, where there are cars and action everywhere? GIBSON: Honestly, I’m a simple dude. You know, there’s some folks that take this shit way too serious.

I get to the set, they tell me what I’m doing, what the setup is. I work really hard to memorize my lines, because that’s where I’m always challenged, and I just get in there and I get busy. I’m a very simple dude.

I’m like, I’m the least of everybody’s worries. They, when it comes to headaches and people that’s like, “Is he okay?” They got enough of that shit going on. I’m a simple man. I get to the set.

I just be ready to rock it, you know? What do you still enjoy about playing Roman all these years later? GIBSON: I just love that we keep going to different places and, you know, I just get a chance to put a smile on people’s faces around the world. It’s just like I never take it for granted.

It’s still a very big deal to this day that I get a chance to do what I do. I just hope I never let the fans down with the energy that I’m looking to bring to the franchise. I mean, it seems like the movie just came up last week, and we’re already releasing the Blu- Ray and DVD on it.

It’s crazy. Have you enjoyed leaning more and more into the comedic element of the character as the years go on? GIBSON: Yeah. Yeah, I’ve enjoyed it. I mean, everything else otherwise is so intense. I’m just glad I get to be me. I mean, I’m pretty serious as a day- to- day person for real in real life. I mean, I only crack jokes when I get around a select few, but I just love that Fast and Furious allows for me to bring that humor.

But I’m not a comedian. Image via Universal Pictures. Right. GIBSON: But I do like the fact that I get a chance to bring some levity and energy to the movie. I really feel like F.

Pilar. It was acquired in April 1. Wheeler Shipbuilding in Brooklyn, New York, for $7,4. Pilar" was a nickname for Hemingway's wife Pauline and also the name of the woman leader of the partisan band in his 1. Spanish Civil War, For Whom the Bell Tolls. Hemingway regularly fished off the boat in the waters of Key West, Florida, Marquesas Keys, and the Gulf Stream off the Cuban coast. He made three trips with the boat to the Bimini islands wherein his fishing, drinking, and fighting exploits drew much attention and remain part of the history of the islands. In addition to fishing trips on Pilar, Hemingway contributed to scientific research which included collaboration with the Smithsonian Institution.

Several of Hemingway's books were influenced by time spent on the boat, most notably, The Old Man and the Sea and Islands in the Stream. The yacht also inspired the name of Playa Pilar (Pilar Beach) on Cayo Guillermo. A smaller replica of the boat is depicted in the opening and other scenes in the TV Movie Hemingway & Gellhorn. Ernest Hemingway and Carlos Gutierrez aboard Pilar. Acquisition[edit]Hemingway acquired the boat on April 1. Africa. The boat was a modified version of the Wheeler Playmate line.[3] The final price for the boat was $7,4. A flying bridge was added at a later date, but not by Wheeler.

The boat's hull was painted black as opposed to the stock white color. The boat was constructed in the Coney Island yard of the Wheeler company and delivered to Hemingway at Miami, attached to a wooden cradle which was part of the purchase price. Hemingway, with a friend and a Wheeler representative then delivered the boat under its own power from Miami to Key West along and a few miles to the east of the Florida Keys, via a semi- protected passage known as Hawk Channel.

Science on the boat[edit]In addition to hunting, Hemingway was an avid fisherman and a great contributor to the development of the sport. He also contributed to the knowledge of Atlantic marine life. During his first visit to Cuba with Pilar, Hemingway hosted Charles Cadwalader, director of the Philadelphia Academy of Natural History and Henry Fowler, the Academy’s chief ichthyologist. These two scientists were in Cuba trying to determine the taxonomy of marlin species. They were attempting to determine if white, blue, black, or striped marlin were different species, or just color variants of the same species.

As a result of their efforts on the boat, they reclassified the North Atlantic marlin variants. U- boat patrols[edit]During World War II, Hemingway used his boat to search for German U- boats in the Caribbean waters.[4]Pilar was outfitted with communications gear including HF/DF or “Huff- Duff” direction- finding equipment. His minimal armament included a Thompson sub machine gun and hand grenades. Most accounts state that any effort to attack a submarine would be futile. Hemingway wrote about his intent to attack if he spotted a sub. Other accounts of these patrols imply that they were a farce and that he did them in return for extra gas rations and immunity from Cuban police for driving drunk.[5][6] His hunting for U- Boats was inspiration for the third act, "At Sea", in his novel Islands in the Stream.

Bimini trips[edit]. Ernest Hemingway with Wife Pauline and Children, Bimini, 1. Hemingway spent three summers in Bimini, starting with the first voyage in April, 1.

During the initial attempt at the crossing, he accidentally shot himself in the leg while attempting to boat a shark he caught.[7] On a subsequent trip, he fished with Bror von Blixen- Finecke, with whom he had been on a safari and whose former wife was Karen Blixen, author of Out of Africa. There are ties to him and Hemingway through Hemingway's books Green Hills of Africa and Under Kilimanjaro. During the Bimini trips, Hemingway perfected fishing techniques for tuna. He was the first person to land a giant tuna unmutilated. Known as "apple- coring", it had been common for sharks to attack fish as they tired and were near to the boat. His technique involved applying constant pressure, "pump and reel", to the fish wherein previous techniques allowed the fish to run in an effort to tire it. He would attempt to boat the fish as soon as possible.

He experimented with using a skiff whereby he would transfer to the smaller boat with the intent of having the fish pull the boat and then tire. He also discovered marlin had a defense mechanism in their swords and noses that made them unattractive to sharks but that tuna lacked such a defense. Hemingway and Henry ("Mike") Strater with the remaining 5. He found a tuna's primary defense against the sharks was speed and as the fish tired they became easy targets.

He carried a Thompson sub- machine gun which he used to shoot the sharks as the tuna tired and neared the boat. The photo to the right depicts Hemingway and Henry ("Mike") Strater with a half- eaten ("apple- cored") marlin. This fish weighed more than 5.

It was projected to be more than 1,0. During the landing of the fish, Hemingway used a Thompson machine gun to shoot the sharks in an attempt to ward them off. The effect of the shark blood in the water was to attract more sharks, which eventually did their damage to the fish.

In the end, the state of the marlin recalls somewhat that of the monster marlin in Hemingway's later masterpiece The Old Man and the Sea. The incident greatly compromised his relationship with Strater because Strater believed Hemingway's bloody use of the machine gun against the sharks to be the primary cause of him losing the largest fish he ever caught.[8]While on Bimini, Hemingway wrote magazine articles for Esquire and worked on his novel, To Have And Have Not. His reputation as a big game angler began to grow. He landed many large tuna and marlin. He also staged boxing matches with the locals, offering $1. His fighting was not contained to the ring. During a dockside brawl, he punched and knocked out Joe Knapp, a wealthy magazine publisher.[9] Hemingway at first lived on Pilar.

He later moved to a cottage near Brown's Dock and eventually a room at the Compleat Angler Hotel, staying in Room Number 1.[1. Fishing[edit]. Ernest Hemingway posing with a marlin, Havana Harbor, Cuba. Hemingway caught numerous record- breaking fish from Pilar. In 1. 93. 5, he won every tournament in the Key West- Havana- Bimini triangle, competing against notable sportsman Michael Lerner and S. Kip Farrington. In 1. He was the first person to ever boat a giant tuna in an undamaged state.

This effort was attributed to him pulling the fish into the boat before it had tired thereby preventing sharks from eating it. Hemingway kept meticulous logs of his fishing to include guests, weather, current, conditions, fish caught, and other information. During the first summer of owning the boat, Arnold Samuelson, an aspiring writer, served as deck hand and recorded the dictated logs on paper. He subsequently typed the logs which are on display at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.[1. Samuelson later wrote an account of the summer in book form which was published posthumously by his daughter.[1.

Named after him, The Hemingway Fishing Tournament has been held in Cuba since 1. It is four day tournament where contestants go for marlin, tuna, wahoo, and other fish using 5. Hemingway won the first three years.[1. Notable guests[edit]. Ernest Hemingway on Pilar. Disposition[edit].
