Michelle Rodriguez Blogs The Fast and Furious 4
By Nix | April 16, 2008 (7:10 pm) | More: The Fast and the Furious 4 (2009) Movie
Michelle Rodriguez, one of the returning stars of Justin Lin’s “The Fast and Furious 4″ movie (since titled “Fast and Furious”), recently popped into her Myspace page and left a blog entry for her fans to catch up with her current and future projects. In short, she’s still doing community service, but notes that she’ll be appearing “briefly” in “The Fast and Furious 4″, which she describes as “fun and ass kicking purposes”, whatever that means. Read the rest of Rodriguez’s blog posting below.

MY DEEPEST APOLOGIES FOR BEING SO ALOOF LATELY, I JUST NEEDED A COUPLE OF MONTHS OF COMPLETE DISCONNECT TO POSITION MYSELF AND GET BACK ON TRACK. I HOPE YOU GUYS ENJOY THIS COMING YEAR AND THE GROUP EFFORT MESSAGES THE FILMS I’VE WORKED ON HAVE TO OFFER (WITH THE EXCEPTION OF FF4 IT’S AN ACTION FLICK, JUST FOR FUN AND ASS KICKING PURPOSES). I’M CURRENTLY PAYING MY DEBTS TO SOCIETY WITH SOME HIGHWAY CLEAN UP, WORKING ON ‘FAST AND FURIOUS FOUR’ BRIEFLY, SHARPENING UP ON SOME PROPER SPANISH FOR MY PASSION PROJECT ‘TROPICO DE SANGRE’, AND IN JUNE I’LL BE TAKING OFF TO ITALY TO WRITE MY LONG AWAITED FIRST FEATURE FILM PROJECT… I WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS HAVE ABOUT ANYTHING THAT TICKLES YOUR CURIOSITY THIS WEEK, SO PLEASE; FEEL FREE TO START ASKING, WHETHER ITS HERE ON MY SPACE OR ON THE FLY OFFICIAL SITE LEIGH HAS HOOKED UP FOR THOSE THAT WISH TO CONNECT.
The passage about working on FF4 only “briefly” would seem to jive with everything we’ve heard — that Rodriguez will indeed reprise her Letty character, except it’ll be a pretty brief appearance as Letty ends up killed, thus setting up the rest of the film.
please make this movie todd 
As a life-long Buddhist, the element of “ego” and the self-talk that goes along with it was very clear to ...
Just watched this film due to Jason Statham's involvement (he's on my new bride's list of guys she can sleep ...

Good work Nix
Furiousfan on 16 April 2008:
I still don’t think she dies
Cece on 16 April 2008:
Breifly..um shes a goner
Cece on 16 April 2008:
wait..she said “fun and ass kicking purposes”, which mean if she dies shes going down with a fight….or if she doesnt die then she having some hot racing scene…hope she doesnt die though but who knows..that briefly could mean alot of things
Furiousfan on 16 April 2008:
it could be she’s briefly working now and then a little later she’ll work
Roqk on 16 April 2008:
briefly filming doesn’t mean anything, she still could be filming after the blog cause I’m sure they’re not done filming just yet. Filming a movie like that takes at least three months. I wouldn’t give it much credit honestly towards the demise of Letty. she said working on the fast and the furious..which means she working on the film but she has other thing going on and she trying to balance it
rocketfuel on 16 April 2008:
She needs to be in the “my wife is a gangster” remake…..
Hondakid on 16 April 2008:
She is a goner! *Cece passes out* Cece, are you okay! Everybody we ride for Letty! *Hondakid starts up engine* Vroom… Hondakid takes off down the street and pages his crew and they head out to Mexico to get Bradga!
cece on 16 April 2008:
I know shes a goner…i said it already..but hey i can still have hope..
cece on 16 April 2008:
dont forget she said “fun and ass kicking purposes”, which means she sign because something intrigue her that made her sign on…but hey im justing
cece on 16 April 2008:
im just saying
Hondakid on 16 April 2008:
I told you Cece. She just got a tight getaway scene or something like that.
Dustin on 17 April 2008:
Holy macaroni..I can’t believe the Fast anf the Furious is the subject that inspires the most discussion on a movie site. I almost walked out of the theater during the first one. I love car chase/car crash movies but man..FATF did not cut it..
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
A MAN APART staring Vin, is coming on tv on the USA channel Saturday. Check your tv guides for times in your area. If you want to have an idea of what f&f4 will be like, I urge you to watch this movie. :)
LSB on 17 April 2008:
A Man Apart sucked I didn’t like that movie that much. I hope FF4 isn’t that way becasuse its going to be very disapointing. But I understand were you are coming from Hondakid about his wife being killed and all that.
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
They are going to improve it. Movie critics said the story was to predictable and simple. With this essence coming to the f&f franchise, it would be far from predictable and simple. Bc you have all the custom cars and interesting characters and beautiful women alongside Vin to put the audience into a world that is exciting and risk are high.
Wullie on 17 April 2008:
I’ll still be gutted if she dies !! i refuse to believe…….. lol…
LSB on 17 April 2008:
Good observation Hondakid sounds good to me.
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
Yall jus need to be glad we got Vin back! The world awaits his return and when it hit next year this time, people going to blogging all over the place, talking about how good this movie is going to be. We are going to be all at the theaters. Universal really need to hype this movie up. Get lots of interviews with people on this movie. The producer and director need to put all their skills to work. Bryan Tyler need to get sum epic type music ready. They jus need to get their ideas together to advertise f&f4 effectively before it hit theaters in 2009.
LSB on 17 April 2008:
YA!!!!!!1
cece on 17 April 2008:
I dont get about fine being back…its was letty……i sign that petition for her character to back and when she does she might get off…imm 50/50 on whether she dies or not but im with wullie…ill fight till i see her alive…lol comon justin lin doing his home and he know what the audience want and thats from me letty..but yea the better be some poppin music
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
Has anybody being checking on Letty response to questions her fans being asking. Jus want to know. I havent had time to search it, this cell phone internet I got is limited to what it can upload.
cece on 17 April 2008:
dont worry im on that lol
cece on 17 April 2008:
hey i got a video of the pic ofpaul and that guy off the window..they are shooting this scene
http://www.jfxonline.com/on-location/2008/04/16/video-paul-walker-actorcarpenter/
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
Gas prices are hitting record highs. Yall can keep your gas drinking V8s. I just got to learn to drift in my honda civic. I think some more honda civics should be in this movie. There is always going to be civics in the tuner scene.
Yah on 17 April 2008:
civics are the most common customized car, get real dude. Thats all anyone buys just so they can be like everyone else. Be original, and you will never drift dude, sorry
Hondakid on 17 April 2008:
I jus came from drifting just a second ago. You can drift in a civic, jus coming out of the drift is slow. But to film it, people would think it is rwd.
cece on 17 April 2008:
as long as you dont get hurt hondakid..you could drift anytime you want..i need our debate to keep flowing..lol
Furiousfan on 17 April 2008:
who was holding that guy upside down? But I am so happy vin is back…finally… and i dont think letty dies
cece on 17 April 2008:
^^we are the only one who believes that furiousfan..i think that guy holding the guy upside down in the video is of the the crew.
Yah on 18 April 2008:
VIN IS HOLDING THE GUY UPSIDE DOWN, white tee and bald head and the name VIN, its diesel
Hondakid on 18 April 2008:
I told yall it would probably be about June till they get to dominican republic. I jus cant wait to see those pics.:)
cece on 18 April 2008:
guess you will be waiting for long time for those pic..becauseuniversal its making it difficult..just as k the people who work CarDomain member..this what they blog
Top Secret: Fast and Furious Set Visit
By Jen Dunnaway
Editor
Today I’m headed to LA to check out the set of Fast and Furious (yep, that’s now the fourth installment’s working title). Unfortunately I’m going to be forbidden from saying anything about the visit until the embargo is lifted,but while I’m on set I’ll totally be looking out for the numerous CarDomain member rides that have been cast to appear in the film—like haddytech’s awesome Kia Spectra! Be sure to let me know in the comments if you or your ride will be there as well.
http://blog.cardomain.com/blog/2008/04/cardomain-to-vi.html
emmie on 18 April 2008:
does that mean they go to Mexico next month?
Hondakid on 19 April 2008:
That kia is tight! Thats what the tuner scene look like now! The bodykit is not aggressive like and fits that car well.
Bells on 19 April 2008:
Thats mad! Vin and Paul shooting again together. Great to see some Video of them to 2gether again finally. It looks like Vin is going to playing a pretty pissed off Dom this time around and Brian being the reasonable 1.
Bells on 19 April 2008:
Oh yeah, that Kia is mad. But cmon?? Its a Kia…… Who bothers?
Hondakid on 19 April 2008:
Nobody would probably spend that kind of time with a kia but it definitely going to be one of a kind tho.
Hondakid on 19 April 2008:
This movie needs to be Rated R. For the storyline, any rating under this, cant happen. Teenagers can act like they are 18 to get into theaters. With there older friends working at the box office, they will get in. :)
cece on 19 April 2008:
i dont know rated R..its gonna be pg 13.i think
Hondakid on 19 April 2008:
Whats the difference between pg13 and rated r anyways? No sex scene. LOL.
cece on 20 April 2008:
they make pg13 for the reason that it will let teenagers get in…cars, chick,plus teenagers= ton of money in the boxoffice
Hondakid on 20 April 2008:
I read something about nitromethane that fenix car will have at http://www.dragtimes.com. It basically talks about how they use this racing fuel for “5 second cars”. I dont know how they are going to pull this off on film, but that is crazy fast. Observers are going to watch from a far distance. The best of the best! Im thinking the new camaros, challenger, rx7, skyline, evos, time to get some competition for Dominic. Time to prove why Dominic is the best but not too good where he seem like he is untouchable. Maybe he lose a race or something.
cece on 20 April 2008:
I found some new pic…well the guy said is a racing scene..theres cars and paul walker is there siting in top of a motocycle..actually
THAT motocycle is hot.. http://www.fastandfurious4.co.uk/2008/04/20/new-pictures-from-main-race-scene/
Bells on 21 April 2008:
Nice Bike. I can see the new GTR in there too…!
Hondakid on 21 April 2008:
Nix, we need another update. Cece found some good pics.:)
Hondakid on 21 April 2008:
There should be some type of vid coming out pretty soon showing this race. Everybody check the net and report back here.
cece on 21 April 2008:
Well i found the vid but they are not racing..they ar ejust showing you the cars…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qsoXyKy3MY
Hondakid on 21 April 2008:
This movie is going to be so tight! What they doing is doing the real 2f2f. If you look at all the pics, you can tell Vin told Justin Lin he wants to bring all the cars together for the biggest show down ever. Suvs, Imports, Muscle, Trucks, Euro, and Exotic for his great return. He just want to make some real money this time. Everybody like f&f, and to throw every car in the mix was smart and the trailer should emphasize this.
cece on 21 April 2008:
hondakid i got the real scene footage for those pic for you.paul walker following some people heres he link..
http://www.jfxonline.com/?s=FAST+AND+THE+FURIOUS
cece on 22 April 2008:

http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Clip-from-Fast-and-Furious-4_158278.htm
Bells on 22 April 2008:
Good clip, I hope some one eventually films some of the racing so we can see who is driving what. I hope Brian is driving the new GTR
LSB on 22 April 2008:
Good lookin cece, you the bomb girl!!!
diggy on 22 April 2008:
How does han appear in part 4 when he died in part 3? Is Tyrese or Lucus Black going to be in it? When you die its at the start of the movie? Wha t about the rest of the team from part 1?
Yah on 22 April 2008:
diggy please become more informed before you decided to make a post, that was almost classified as a ? that anyone on this board will become pissed off once read
cece on 22 April 2008:

Bells on 22 April 2008:
Great pics. Looks like a great race scene. The cars look pretty banged up. It looks like Brian is driving the blue R34. Still looks good but I wanted to see him racing the new GTR.
furiousfan88 on 22 April 2008:

Bells on 23 April 2008:

What a good movie its turning out to be
LSB on 23 April 2008:
Damn cece!!!! If my wife doesn’t start to get her act together I might have to switch teams LOL.
emmie on 23 April 2008:
video looks great!
Hondakid on 23 April 2008:
My source tells me that Michelle rodiriguez drives an 09 Dodge Demon for Bradga! That is why we didn’t get to see any of those pics. My source tells me when they get to Dominican Republic. It is going to be some SIIIIIIIIICCCCCKKKKK CARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My source don’t want to give away the real details but says this story is the best story in the f&f franchise.(very excited).
LSB on 23 April 2008:
Maybe Hondakid or cece or someelse can give me an answer to this question, they said in this movie their is going to be charactors from all three movies so were is Tyrese? I hate to beat a dead horse but this makes since for me to see him in this movie don’t you say? Its not like I love the guy cause its not like that, I just think to see all three of them together would be great.
cece on 23 April 2008:
I dont know if tyrese is going to be in it. i hope they could give him a cameo just for you LSb and i also want those guy who play leon and vince too.hondakid how do you know this
furiousfan88 on 23 April 2008:
yeah i want leon and vince too. I hope theres a fifth one that they are in
Hondakid on 24 April 2008:
Cece if I told you where I got my info, somebody would have to disappear. LOL jus kidding. Somebody be sending me an email. READ the plot summery at latinoreview and it says she drive a DEMON, but I didnt know what kind of car that was. The dude told me she would drive a 09 Dodge Demon Concept. How she gets her hand on a concept, dont ask me. LOL
LSB on 24 April 2008:
Thanks cece I apreciate that good lookin!……….. By the way what the hell is a Dodge Demon?
Hondakid on 24 April 2008:
For yall that dont know what a Demon is, here is the link:
http://www.automobilemag.com/new_and_future_cars/2009/0702_2009_dodge_demon_concept_copy/index.html
It is also rumoured that the new Hyundai Genesis is going to be in the fast and the furious 4 to and the link is here:
http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/21/fast-and-furious-4-will-include-a-hyundai-genesis-coupe/
cece on 24 April 2008:
no problem Lsb…I dont believe Latin review since they were the one who started the whole letty death plot..i think dodger demon is a car..idk
furiousfan88 on 24 April 2008:
Yeah i don’t believe Latin review either….they should have just said a crime or something
Hondakid on 24 April 2008:
Lol yall dont believe anything. The guys over at Latinoreview seems to have the first act of the movie right. There are pics to prove that this plot is true. The real question I want to know is, where are the pics or vid of Vin drifting with that Honda S2000. Its got to have something to do with John Ortiz and Letty. I just cant put my finger on it.
cece on 24 April 2008:
comon that guy over the latin review said that he read the first act over christmas break and we shouldnt ask him because he return it back lol yeah like universal said here latin review take the first act of this film and post it in you site if you wish an rin the film for the fans..um..
but if ur right we just got the first act of the film..so wedont know what happends from there on..
furiousfan88 on 24 April 2008:
exactly
