Fast & Furious 6 (alternatively known as
Fast Six or
Furious Six or
The Fast and the Furious 6)
[5] is a 2013
action film written by
Chris Morgan and directed by

Fast and the Furious film series. The film stars
Vin Diesel,
Paul Walker,
Dwayne Johnson,
Jordana Brewster,
Tyrese Gibson,
Michelle Rodriguez,

Fast & Furious 6 follows a professional criminal gang led by
Dominic Toretto (Diesel) who have retired following their successful heist in
Fast Five (2011), but remain wanted fugitives.
U.S. Diplomatic Security Service (DSS)
agent Luke Hobbs (Johnson) offers to clear the group's criminal records
and allow them to return home in exchange for helping him to take down a
skilled mercenary organization led by Owen Shaw (Evans) and his second
in command, Dominic's presumed-dead lover Letty Ortiz (Rodriguez).
Fast & Furious 6 was in development by February 2010 as the
first film in the series to move away from the underground car-racing
theme of the series' previous films which was considered to have placed a
barrier on audience numbers. Pre-production had begun by April 2011,
and
principal photography began in London, England in July 2012. Filming locations also included the
Canary Islands,
Glasgow, and Los Angeles. The film was first released in the United
Kingdom, on May 17, 2013, followed by an international release on May
24, 2013. A sequel is scheduled to begin filming in August 2013.
