How Vin Diesel Somehow Made XXX’s Wildest Stunts Realistic
By MARCOS MELENDEZ
The “Fast and Furious” film franchise is known for its daring stunts, but "xXx" helped solidify Diesel as a committed action star and producer that did whatever it took to succeed.
In an interview with BlackTree TV, Diesel spoke of the thought process for creating the high-octane action sequences that have characterized the "xXx" franchise.
Diesel says, "The irony is that every sequence – save for, you know, propelling a plane to a satellite – but all the action, extreme sports sequences, are drawn from real events."
He explains that they go through videos and he imagines if he could do some of the stunts. Diesel then goes into training, “enough to be able to execute the scene with their help."
