Michelle Rodriguez was greatly surprised when she went to the movies and found out that her Fast and the Furious character was alive. Her character Letty was left for dead in the fourth movie and she didn’t think she would return to the franchise.
Michelle said: “We shot 4 with the idea of leaving it open in case they did want to bring me back… but it had been two years and already they had announced that they did Fast Five; I went to visit the set – I’m obviously not in it.”
However, while staying in Paris, Rodriguez decided to go to the movies and see the film and was shocked by the ending.
“I was in Paris and I bought a ticket to go to see the film because I wanted to see Vin Diesel go and fight The Rock. The movie ends, the credits roll, I get up to leave and I hear a voice and it’s Eva Mendes and it’s, ‘Do you believe in ghosts?’, and I turn around and I look and can you believe it, that’s how I found out that I’m alive. Vin’s one of my best friends and he didn’t tell me.”
