‘Fast and Furious 6’ Super Bowl Trailer and New Poster

Universal Pictures finally launched the first trailer for Fast & Furious 6, opting to debut the action-heavy first look at the sixth film of the F&F franchise during the 2013 Super Bowl. The trailer showed off a sampling of the film’s over-the-top stunts as well as provided a bit of an insight into the story.

Was it effective? Yes, in that it spotlighted the cars – and sexy women – feeding the fan base what it wants out of a Fast and Furious movie.

F&F players Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Gal Gadot, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, and Elsa Pataky return for more high-octane action, joined by franchise newcomers Luke Evans and Gina Carano.

The Plot:

Since Dom (Diesel) and Brian’s (Walker) Rio heist toppled a kingpin’s empire and left their crew with $100 million, our heroes have scattered across the globe. But their inability to return home and living forever on the lam have left their lives incomplete.

Meanwhile, Hobbs (Johnson) has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers across 12 countries, whose mastermind (Evans) is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty (Rodriguez). The only way to stop the criminal outfit is to outmatch them at street level, so Hobbs asks Dom to assemble his elite team in London. Payment? Full pardons for all of them so they can return home and make their families whole again.

Fast & Furious 6 hits theaters on May 24, 2013.
