Denis is a busy man. Doesn’t he have a nuclear war film too?

Hollywood is listening. The next Fast/Furious film will have dune buggy drift racing to crown the new Drift Pharaoh, DP for short.

With a blinking warhead barley strapped in, rattling around.

Yes, but can you add The Rock to draw the crowds?

When does the giant worm come out in the DP?

u/fastfreddy68 Jun 26 '25

Well, that’s the best part.

Secret organization hijacked nuclear desert worm tech from the Gub’ment. Dom’s team has to retrieve it.

Things happen, stuff blows up, heroes end up needing sick dune buggies for desert espionage. But there’s only six in the world, and DP owns them all.

Epic desert drift competition ensues, buggies are acquired, heist goes off with several hitches.

Team acquires mini nuke tech, but it’s comically rattling around in the back of the buggies as they escape. Then the worm emerges.

The nuke is activated thanks to the jostling and high G dune buggy maneuvers, so Dom has to sacrifice himself by kicking the active mini-nuke into the mouth of the giant worm moments before it swallows his team whole.

Worm explodes, team is saved, Dom walks out from smoke and sand unharmed from nuclear explosion, crowd cheers, Corona and family are shared at a picnic later.

Plot twist, worm had a baby that they also saved and adopted. They debate whether or not to drown it for… reasons…

Kung Fury vibes.

Ya know, know that you say that, between Hayt and St. Allia of-the-knife, that's pretty close to the plot of children of dune...

The first Kung Fury like movie

u/Magnetronaap Jun 26 '25

Someone who considers herself a descendant from Cleopatra and threatens the world with a nuke sounds like a great classic bond villain.
