If you’re a Fast and Furious fan and you’re looking for ways to pass the time until the next installment comes out, check out the trailer for Overdrive.
This movie stars Scott Eastwood, who ironically also played the character of “Little Nobody” in The Fate of the Furious, teaming up with Freddie Thorp and Ana de Armas (Anabel, War Dogs) in what looks like an action packed car-focused flick.
By the way, is it us or did they borrow that BMW M3 from the Mission Impossible guys? We’re talking same color, same yellow calipers too.
Anyway, if you haven’t figured it out from watching the trailer, here’s the plot of the movie:
“The story centers on two car thieves, brothers, who journey to the south of France for new opportunities and wind up in the cross hairs of the local crime boss. Andrew and Garrett Foster (Scott Eastwood and Freddie Thorp) are thieves who specialize in luxury cars, only the most expensive cars.
They’ve been hired to steal a gorgeous Bugatti 1937 valued million euros, so they head to the south of France for the job. But they get caught, and Jacomo Morier (Simon Abkarian), the local crime boss who owns the Bugatti, doesn’t take it lightly. In exchange for their lives the two brothers will have to steal a car from Max Klemp (Fabian Wolfrom), Morier’s arch-rival, and not any car, Morier wants them to steal Klemp’s 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO, his most prized car.”
Of course the part where they now have to put together a crew in order to steal the 250 GTO is so “Fast and Furious”, we’re surprised this isn’t actually a spinoff.
But at least the action looks good, and not just the car action, but the other stuff as well – that opening scene where Eastwood’s character jumps off the bridge and onto the truck is some fine stunt work.
