Michelle Rodriguez Confirms Fast and Furious 4
By Nix | March 5, 2008 (10:47 pm) | More: The Fast and the Furious 4 (2009) Movie
In case you “Fast and Furious” fans were still wondering (and judging from all the comments in the FF4 threads, it would appear so), the answer is Yes, Michelle Rodriguez will indeed return to the “Fast and Furious” franchise alongside Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. Or, actually, she’ll be back, but she probably won’t have any scenes with those two, considering the plot of the fourth installment. (The reasons why are here, in case you still don’t know. Warning: It contains SPOILERS about the beginning of the fourth installment, including Letty’s fate.)
Here’s what Rodriguez’s official site says about her return to the franchise (via):
Michelle has signed on to reprise her role as “Letty” in the 4th installment of The Fast and the Furious opposite Vin Diesel and Paul Walker. The highly-anticipated sequel hits theaters Summer 2009! And in other big news….
So there you go. Wonder no more.




cece on 5 March 2008:
yeah baby ..she isnt going to die..watch
LSB on 6 March 2008:
I knew she was going to be in it. But is Tyrese going to be in it I would like to know that!
Hondakid on 6 March 2008:
I don’t want to spoil the movie for anybody but I think Letty is having a fake death. Why? I think to trick the police or something. I don’t know. I’ve been asking alot of people about this upcoming f&f4 movie and nobody knows anything about it. They are glad I told them. You have got to love the internet!
Hondakid on 6 March 2008:
I want to see that cop chase at the beginning of the movie. I want to see Vin drifting here, since we didn’t see him in tokyo drift doing his thing. I want Paul Walker to be amazed and not able to really keep up with Vin’s awesome driving skills.
cece on 6 March 2008:
yeah i was thinking the samething…her death can be fake..and she underprotection or something
romeo el cobra on 6 March 2008:
Well my car has been schosen to participate in the movie im not gonna say which one it is because i wanna let you all in on some stuff haha and if i say which one is myne that means im “breaching my contract” anywayz
so it starts in tokyo vin diesel has begun his own little ENTERPRISE, paul walker is in houston looking for sexy michelle rodriguez and they go bak to cali..from cali something really abd happens and the fbi wants walker to work with an undercover mexican..yes an undercover mexican that looks like a cholo”gangster” mr diesel is importing Cocaine through the border using cars made in mexico like fords and stuff anywayz ..taht all you gon’ know for now
Tiff on 6 March 2008:
yeah i don’t think her death is real either. i think it has to do with the fbi
Yah on 6 March 2008:
THIS IS A F&F 2.5….it will not be in Tokyo…that will be F&F 5 (if it happens) and yes, her death may be fake, but then why would they bring in Gal Gadot…also, Vin will have nothing to do with Cocain.
cece on 6 March 2008:
gal gadot is with the bad guys…..i still think letty doesnt die
LSB on 6 March 2008:
YA YA YA where is Tyrese? Anyone!!!!!
cece on 6 March 2008:
rumor is he might in it because paul is trying to get him back..i wonder who would he be a cop too
Hondakid on 6 March 2008:
I finally think I got the plot. This is just a guess. What if Letty’s death is a way to get vin diesel, thats the only way he would cross the border to enter the US. Vin hates cops! Paul works for the FBI too! I just know I wanted this story with lots of twists.
Hondakid on 7 March 2008:
I want twists bc when he was at the end of tokyo drift, it was vin cameo that got everybody really excited and was a twist that had people wanting more!
cece on 7 March 2008:
yeah i that plot sounds hot
Yah on 7 March 2008:
Hondakid this is before Tokyo drift…Jesus everyone, THIS IS A PREQUEL to Tokyo Drift, so yes Tyrese may be in it but he hasnt confirmed and the only way for your cameo*(check your spelling) twist to occur is if we have a Fast and The Furious 5!!!!! And the plot isnt even final yet, so lets just wait on updates and stop with these stupid theories.
sharkbait on 8 March 2008:
I’m with Yah! can’t wait either, this year and the next is going to be a whole bunch of 4th movies, Indiana 4, F&F4, X-men 4 origins, JPrk4. Holy Shirts and pants!
cece on 8 March 2008:
han is back
LSB on 8 March 2008:
What do you mean han is back?
Hondakid on 8 March 2008:
Justin Lin needs to go on a tell the estimated budget for the film. You can tell if a movie is going to be good by the numbers.
Hondakid on 8 March 2008:
Ok I take back everthing I said about lettys death, she is definitely going to die, Jus wanted to give Cece a little hope, but it definitely seems to be the end of letty. Its ok Cece, you can cry on my shoulders.
cece on 9 March 2008:
she not going to die.. so keep your shoulder…i know couse i have a feeling the same feeling when i knew shell back…michelle was in negotiation since october and when she was in jail….that mean she was in negotiation for months…now if universal where to kill her off they wouldnt even bother with here and she wouldnt sigh on knowing her personality…so we have to wait and see…and paul walker mention her name like she wasnt going no where for in an interview he just made so if ya believe shes die believe what ya want cause only universal,the cas and crew know whats really going one…
..know im upset lol let me calm down
cece on 9 March 2008:
story plot changes all the time
LSB on 9 March 2008:
Hey cece where is Tyrese?
Yah on 9 March 2008:
Han is back, that is correct, because for the last time this isnt Fast and The Furious 4, its 2.5! We will see Han and Letty. But this movie isnt out until 2009, so the plot they have now will change, because its just going to be a remake of the 2nd movie almost, with cops and all that stupid crap. They need to carry on with Brain not as a cop, but a clean slait. They also need to tie in Vin Going to Toyko and they need to bring back almost everyone from the original cast
cece on 9 March 2008:
its rumoured tyrese Might back because paul walker wants him back so who know he might show up…..like i said and yah said story change all the time so we dont know what really happening ..we only know rumors that are being made
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
Yall have to realize Justin Lin is all about realism. Period. I am watching Gangland on the history channel and MS 13 gang is a real gang that transports from Mexico to LA. These guys kill people all the time. Check the plot to f&f4 again. So its nothing for them to kill Letty.
cece on 9 March 2008:
yeah and if you notice they change it..everysite i go to did..imdb,comingsoon,and bunch of others.but like i said you can believe what you want i mean its ur opinion.all i know is michelle wont sign if shes going to be in it for 10 second..universal could had any girl to do that but thats my opinion.but if she does die im guessing it will be in the middle or she might not die at all…my opinion of course
erika on 9 March 2008:
yeah and if you notice they change it..everysite i go to did..imdb,comingsoon,and bunch of others.but like i said you can believe what you want i mean its ur opinion.all i know is michelle wont sign if shes going to be in it for 10 second..universal could had any girl to do that but thats my opinion.but if she does die im guessing it will be in the middle or she might not die at all…my opinion of course
erika on 9 March 2008:
^^sorry cece if i copy what u said…but your right….people we dont know nothing so before you all jump into conclusion ..ya need to realize they universal,liongate and etc..also put info out to see how the audience react for then they can write stuff in and stuff out….
iam guessing that letty character was going to be a goner but since they were petioning to keep her alive and bloging its not fair..universal ask michelle back…she might die or she might not but unless some have the never to peek in that coffin no one will tell…..just wait for the movie to get ur answer but i doubt letty die…
rayone on 9 March 2008:
personally i think michelle is hot but who care if she die or not..its a movie. if she die that sad if she doesnt then great.just relax people
Yah on 9 March 2008:
Hondakid, you are stupid…Justin Lin made the worst movie of the 3 so far, he needs to pull something big that will help for maybe a 5th movie. Also there is no certain plot yet, so quit going off the plot you read because its so wrong
Stealthy Scooby on 9 March 2008:
I personally think all 3 were bad…. but part 2 was the worst. I never thought the import scene could be made to look THAT ugly and ghetto…. 3 was actually the most accurate portrayal of the current import scene than the other 2…. At least it had correct lingo, and used authentic D1 cars (not to mention a cameo from Keichi Tsuchiya). The 1st and 2nd movies had so much incorrect car/tuning bullcrap, an actual import enthusiast would be embarrassed to not have caught it….
If they’re bringing in the cast from the 1st, might as well also bring Han back (I know he’s dead in part 3 but isn’t this a prequel?)… He was IMO the most decent character in the franchise.
Yah on 9 March 2008:
yes its a prequel, and Han is not the most decent character. Vin and Walker made this franchise
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
What the hell! Justin Lin made the most realistic movie out of the three. Ok, it could have been better but overall it was original and realistic. And the fact that tokyo drift is the ONLY REASON VIN DIESEL IS BACK! SO Yah needs to shut the hell up and stop addressing me and better come correct. I like hearing people opinions, but calling me stupid or anybody else, you cross the line pimp. :
rayone on 9 March 2008:
lol ya people are funny…but tokyo drift wasnt the reason vin came back. it was universal and there big check and this include all the original cast member. i heard han is in this.
does anyone know if vince and leon character are coming back too.
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
Justin Lin was on a limited budget, no returning characters, in Japan where you dont supposed to be filming. Justin lin had many times to stop filming bc of police. But with all these problems and limitations, the movie still came out good. Now he has the money, the support, the characters, vin diesel help producing. This movie is going to be the best in the franchise.
cece on 9 March 2008:
^^^amen to that…something we agree on
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
I dont care how much money you pay me, if this movie in my opinion was going to suck, i would not sign on to this movie. All Im saying is that Vin sees himself doing this movie under Justin Lin direction.
Yah on 9 March 2008:
ok kid…Vin sees this movie as getting him some $ for his movie hes producing…And i called you stupid because your theory was stupid…hes not coming back to Lin hes coming back to the movie that made him big and will get him big bucks…Toyko drift sucked until the last 10 secs
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
What made f&f3 not appeal to some people was its lack of cars(f&f2) and the story plot. This movie was for real car fans. It was about using your driving skills to drift around hair pin turns. Alot of people couldnt grasp this concept bc these dangerous moves were guaranteed*mispelled* a totalled car(car crash) or lots of money in tires. My feeling towards drifting it is not good for racing but chase scenes when everything is on the line
RAYONE on 9 March 2008:
YEAH the only good think about part 3 was vin cameo.
Hondakid on 9 March 2008:
One thing I believe we all agree on is this movie is going to best in the franchise, otherwise we wouldnt be here.
cece on 9 March 2008:
^ yep i agree on that..im hype about this one now that she sign on.
ragga on 9 March 2008:
Michelle is a hottie..glad she back. i like my girl to do some race action not look good on screen and the what michelle does. man she is hot. glad they all back
Yah on 9 March 2008:
true hondakid…this will be the best
Yah on 9 March 2008:
true hondakid…this will be the best!
LSB on 9 March 2008:
Yah and Hondakid you guys need to get a grip because it wasn’t Vin who made the francise great it was Tyrese, and guit your cyber tuggin before i get involved pimps.
ragga on 9 March 2008:
are you kidding me tyrese made me sleep through the entire movie of part 2. why should he even be back.he is not important he was just a replacement for vin. tyrese character should stay away with the money he stole and let the real original character vin,jordana,michelle,and paul finish what the started.
cece on 9 March 2008:
^^ damn ..amen to that
LSB on 9 March 2008:
TYRESE FOR LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!
Kobe is the greatest
sharkbait on 10 March 2008:
too many actors from the other movies could make the movie overdone, but paul, vin, jordana, michelle should finish it up like ragga said. if there are too many actors i just hope it ties together well. and are eva and that suki girl gonna be in it? maybe possible cat fight between jordana-eva? michelle and suki? haha jk wat about that dude sucre from prison break his payroll just went up he might want a scene lol
sharkbait on 10 March 2008:
the post time is off guess u guys go by cali, im east
Hondakid on 10 March 2008:
I jus saw that Paul walker on youtube talking about the fast and the furious 4. This dude is excited and he’s trying to get Tyrese on board. He said Michelle is going to be back, but it don’t tie in with the storyline if she comes back. I guess the story’s changed.
Hondakid on 10 March 2008:
I am all for bringing Tyrese in the movie, we need a black racer. Vin better allow him in bc he is black/italian. The team this time is going to be interacial. Han is asian, Paul is white, Tyrese is black, some new member in the team should be hispanic, and vin is in the middle that holds the team together. This would be a tight team, it also makes it more realistic at getting Bradga bc this dude is CRAZY RICH AND CRAZY POWERFUL!
Yah on 10 March 2008:
okay all i want is a great movie, with hopes for the 5th one, with Vin in Toyko. Because they left us hanging. And this movie will be the best by far if they decide not to overdue it with everyone coming back and the same stotyline. We need all the originals and maybe Tyrese if he signs. But i just hate the story line of some rich drug lord that has to be infultrated.
LSB on 10 March 2008:
I agree with everybody!!!!
cece on 10 March 2008:
i give tyrese a cameo..like leon and vince..but ya i agree too.
rayone on 10 March 2008:
Michelle talks about tftf4…this is what she said..not alot because she said she cant but here..hey its something
CS: When do you start shooting “The Fast and the Furious 4″?
Rodriguez: I don’t know yet. Sometime near the end of the month we’ll get on that.
CS: Where is the story going to pick up from?
Rodriguez: I’m not sure how much I’m allowed to talk about it so I’m just going to shut up about it.

Hshrine on 10 March 2008:
THIS IS JUST HOW I THINK!!!!!!
If this movie is like the 2 one its going to suck!!!! what was wrong with the 2, everything, it did not follow the footsteps of the first one, the movie was not about cars (pink s2000, and a puertorican guy with a car full of stickers and graphics, its never going to happen, at least not here in PR, and finally the bridge seen dont even want to think about it) nor tunning and thats what made the first one so famous, the cars and the similarities of what import street racers do every weekend. On ff4 my opinion is the same just by looking at the lame cars (wtf a mustang????) it looks like its not going to be good the only thing in my mind that could help the movie is the characters and the plot.
Hondakid on 10 March 2008:
I wonder what car Tyrese should drive, Im thinking a 350z and something kind of dark candy green paint with vinyl of white and gray. Deep dish rims of course and a performance wing.
LSB on 10 March 2008:
The deeper the better.
Hondakid on 10 March 2008:
For Gal Gadot, Im thinking honda s2000 or mazda rx8. It depends on her character, maybe a gold car to give her a sense of exotic flavor, or some color you dont see alot. Brian car is blue, dominic is red or black, han is exotic jap, then you got these new people from mexico. This is going to be like an organized gang, but with a common goal. Dominic cant do it by himself, and paul walker cant fight, tyrese seems strong, han has good driving skills, the mexicans know the landscape, michelle I dont know, look out person,.
LSB on 11 March 2008:
Those ideas sound pretty damn good to me.
Carribean on 19 March 2008:
Que la cosa
Carribean on 19 March 2008:
You hear about that new actor Antonio. He’s all business and Furious in a professional tone. He’s doing a Jet scene in Miami.
Cadillac is going to release the Concept cien just for his character in this film. Though he rides with a black fleet of the new CTS all Black on Black rims in front and behind him like a quarter back or some thing untouched, all crew. I heard he’s going to be doing a carribean scene with a powerboat race to atlantis from puerto rico to met the rest of the cast for the movie. He’s cool peoples young professional type, talented.
