OMG, You Won’t Believe What Screenwriter David Ayer Just Spilled About the Fast & Furious Franchise! 🚗💨
So, get this, folks! David Ayer, the dude who co-wrote the very first Fast and the Furious flick, spilled the beans on a podcast. Yeah, like, it’s the BIGGEST franchise ever, and guess what? He’s not rollin’ in the dough from it! 😲 I mean, can you imagine being part of something as huge as the Fast & Furious and not cashing in like you just hit the jackpot at a casino?
During a chat with Jon Bernthal (you know, the Punisher guy) on his “Real Ones” podcast, Ayer, who’s now 55 (and FYI, that’s like 385 in Hollywood years), said he’s got zilch to show for his Fast and Furious fame. Why, you ask? Because, and here’s where it gets spicy, the whole Hollywood business game is like playing Monopoly with invisible money!
But hold up, back in 2001, Ayer didn’t just slap his name on that script and call it a day. Nope, he gave it a serious makeover! The original script was all about New York and Italian kids – basically, it was pizza and taxis. 🍕🚖 But Ayer was like, “Hold my script,” and moved the whole thing to L.A., spiced it up with some cultural diversity, and threw in some street racing vibes. He said, “It’s L.A., baby!” 🌴 And guess what? Nobody knew squat about street racing back then. Ayer must’ve been the Fast & Furious Nostradamus!
And here’s a gem: Ayer went full undercover mode and hung out with these dudes hacking fuel curves and injector stuff (whatever that means) in the Valley. It’s like he went from writing a script to being a legit street racer! 🏎️💨
But guess what? Despite all this, Ayer’s sittin’ there like, “Why y’all acting like I didn’t even contribute?” Eleven films deep, $7 billion in the bank, and he’s over there feeling like the guy who brought a salad to a pizza party. 🥗🍕
Ayer dropped the bomb that he’s not your average Hollywood schmoozer. He ain’t doing the party shuffle or mingling at the Hollywood potluck. He’s like, “Nah, I’mma do my own thing!” And that’s why, my friends, he thinks he got benched from the cool kids’ table. 🎉
He’s all, “I ain’t part of that gossip gang, I’m the dark creative dude, deal with it!” Hollywood execs are probably sipping champagne, discussing the latest yacht they bought with Fast & Furious money, while Ayer’s in the corner like, “I’ll take my residuals in dark humor, thank you very much.” 😎🎬
Oh, and did you hear about the Writers Guild of America? They’re on strike, protesting for fair pay and not letting AI steal their writing gigs. 📜✍️ Hollywood is like a real-life soap opera, people! And let’s not forget SAG-AFTRA joining the party too. It’s like the Avengers of Hollywood unions, fighting for justice, or at least a bigger piece of the money pie. 🥧💰
So there you have it, the Fast & Furious saga has a twist even Vin Diesel couldn’t predict. Hollywood, you wild and crazy beast! 🎥🎭OMG, You Won’t Believe What Screenwriter David Ayer Just Spilled About the Fast & Furious Franchise! 🚗💨
