The cast and crew of "Fast and Furious 8", also known as "Fast 8", are now filming some scenes in Cuba. That being said, photos and clips of the stars are expectedly coming out of the ongoing production in the country.

The social media accounts of the "Fast and Furious" movies are teasing that they are officially in production in the said country. One clip even shows director F. Gary Gray being welcomed by a group of beautiful women in Cuba.

In another clip posted by "Fast and Furious 8" lead Vin Diesel, who plays Dominic Toretto in the films, we see him  hanging out with Gray in Havana, Cuba, which the actor said is "where the Torettos first started."

"We're in place that nobody ever thought would be possible," Diesel says, admiring the "paradise" aka his character's "homeland" and the love they got from the folks in the place.

"They didn't think it could be done," he adds, referring to the "Fast and Furious 8" filming in Cuba.

Michelle Rodriguez is also in Cuba with Diesel. Charlize Theron, who will play the role of the antagonist in "Fast and Furious 8", is said to be there for filming as well.

Cuba, however, is just one of the many stops of the cast and crew. They will also shoot some scenes for "Fast and Furious 8" in Iceland and will circle back to New York and Cleveland.

Meanwhile, part of the production crew might be in Atlanta soon too. As listed in Project Casting, "Fast and Furious 8" casting directors are on the lookout for "tough and fit mercenary types" with military experience who are "ready to kick some doors down."
