where is the fate of the furious filmed
The Fate of the Furious In keeping with the franchise's penchant for filming in "exotic" locations, such as Dubai and Rio de Janeiro, in January 2016 it was announced that Universal was seeking approval from the United States and Cuban governments to shoot part of the film in Cuba.[40][41] Principal photography began on March 14, 2016, in Mývatn, Iceland,[42][43] where strong winds sent a plastic iceberg prop flying into a paddock. The prop struck two horses: one was wounded and the other mortally injured; it was later euthanized.[44] In late April, filming began in Cuba's capital city, Havana.[45][46][47][48] In May, filming also took place in Cleveland, Ohio.[49][50] Franchise cinematographer Stephen F. Windon returned for the eighth installment.[51] Filming also took place in Atlanta[52] and New York City.[53]
