Iceland To Host Fast 8

April 2017 may seem like an awful long way away but already we are beginning to learn fleeting details regarding director F. Gary Gray roadmap for the next sequel for Fast and Furious: Fast 8, which has placed the proverbial crosshairs on New York as its primary setting.

According to reports, Gray may be taking production to a much more remote setting before the sequel screeches down the streets of the Big Apple. This report is coming from Iceland Review which claims that Universal’s high-profile follow-up has set its sights on the idyllic town of Akranes which is located north of the capital of Reykjavik on the west coast of Iceland for an explosive action set piece as it is offering Fast 8 a picturesque backdrop to wreak all kinds of destruction.

Though details are thin on the icy Icelandic ground but the outlet claims that Gray and his crew plan to stage the biggest cinematic explosion ever in the country’s history. Fast 8 will now seemingly set up camp in the Icelandic town of Akranes, before making the jump to New York and possibly Cuba in its path to the big screen. F. Gary Gray’s sequel is primed to open on April 14, 2017.
