Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Vin Diesel was originally attached to star and produce, which explains the budget and the car chase fetish.
This film exists in a weird limbo where it's both too faithful to the games (silent killer becomes chatty) and not faithful enough (no rubber nun disguise, tragic).
