Destroy more than 250 cars in pursuit of the shooting! Behind the scenes of the movie "Wild Speed / Jet popularity"

"it has nothing to do with whether the explosion is the 100th or the 1000th. When you detonate something, there is always an instinctive connection that CGI cannot reproduce, "Lynn said." "now we have great tools, and how to use each element requires a strategy."

In order to successfully destroy Carchase in some capitals, Lynn resorted to the power of special agent Lorazatos. He is one of the trusted Hollywood stunt coordinators. Lasatos, who served as the second unit of "Wild Speed / Jet popularity" (the team shooting the main character and the main actor's absence) and action director, invested a huge budget in the interview with the Russo brothers' next work, "The Gray Man."

Lasatos is responsible for blowing up jungles in Thailand during the rainy season and letting a 100-foot armored car, the Armagero, run through the streets of Tbilisi, the Georgian capital, kicking Renault Cleo like a fly.

In the Tbilisi scene, 95% of the stunts are said to be real. So Tbilisi "gave the key to the city to the crew" in a week, allowing the crew to destroy dozens of cars on the main street, Lazatos said.

But before that, he needs to rehearse all the sequences "destructively". In order to determine the trajectory of the car, the car with the same weight as the car shown in the movie was turned over in the air parking lot and made hundreds of side turns repeatedly. "A mistake may cause irreparable damage to buildings or people. It's a lot of pressure. "said Lazatos.

Destroyed more than 250 for filming.

Lynn said more than 250 cars were destroyed by "wild speed / jet popularity". After the 2009 "Wild Speed MEGA MAX", it has not been properly counted (in addition, the number of cars destroyed in this work is 200 in the first half).

Lynn explained: "if there is a car collision in the movie, six or eight of the same cars are ready." "if you need to increase the number of rollovers, please increase the number of cars you prepare. I don't mind destroying the new car, but the old car is a painful place. "

The pursuit of car explosion will cost cost. The standard model of the 2020 Toyota Sketch in the film sold for 46000 pounds (7 million yen) before the implementation of the Wild Speed Specification. The car in "Wild Speed / Jet explosion" is equipped with a BMW 3.01 engine with a turbocharger and a 0-60mph (accelerating to a speed of about 97km / h) in 3.8s.

Other cars collect items. For example, the unmodified 1968 Chevrolet Novass costs 10000 pounds (about 1.52 million yen) to 25000 pounds (about 3.8 million yen).

Dominic Torrett, played by Wen Diesel, rides in the dark 1968-style Dodge Charger. Nine versions of the car have been created for the Tbilisi scene alone.

In two of them, the 808 horsepower Dodge Guardian engine was installed at the back of the driver's seat. Thanks to you, it can pull out about 1.8G of power, but in fact the camera sets off. The two cars need to squeeze out strength for the gorgeous performance, so they are enhanced by high-power drive axles, mufflers and brakes.

Make "sabotage" cars

Dennis McCarthy (Dennis McCarthy), the car coordinator in the "Wild Speed" series, needs to use his imagination so that he doesn't have to smash a large car for a three-second scene. McCarthy says there are actually five Dodge chargers known as Ponzi. It basically has only one use, that is, to be hit and bounced.
