We’re not sure who made the guest list for ‘Hef’s’ premiere party for “The Transporter” at the Playboy Mansion in LA, but we’re hoping for his sake the invite details weren’t posted on Ashley Madison’s hack list.
According to Variety, the movie played on a projector in one of the rooms of Hef’s manse with a spread of Hershey’s chocolate, Wild Berry Skittles and wine. After the screening, dancers dressed like Chabanol’s character escorted guests to the other end of the house for the after-party. Attendees mingled around the famous Playboy Mansion Grotto and the private zoo, while the dancers performed again on a stage with impressively synchronized fog machines. In addition to the “Transporter”- themed drinks at the bar (the best of which was The Transporter Mule), partygoers posed for pictures and videos with a wind machine that sent suit jackets, scarves and hair flying.” Meanwhile, back in Washington, the White House celebrated Women’s Equality Day as did DC Mayor Muriel Bowser in her office. Just sayin’……..
“Known to the French Riviera’s criminal underworld as the best driver money can buy, soft-spoken Frank Martin (Ed Skrein) will deliver any “package” for a price. He abides by three simple rules: no names, no questions and no renegotiations. But his rulebook goes out the window when he is tricked by gorgeous femme-fatale Anna (Loan Chabanol) into driving the getaway car for an ingenious bank robbery. Racing through the streets of Monaco in a state-of-the-art Audi, Frank unwittingly becomes entangled in a scheme to bring down Yuri (Yuri Kolokolnikov), the Russian human trafficker who forced Anna into prostitution 15 years ago. Hell-bent on revenge, Anna and her blonde-wigged co-conspirators kidnap Frank’s father, retired spy Frank Sr. (Ray Stevenson), to make sure the Transporter does their bidding. Frank, who for reasons of his own avoids firearms at all costs, employs a dizzying array of makeshift weapons and lethal street-fighting moves to take on Yuri’s thugs. His situation is further complicated when his relationship with Anna becomes more than just business. A sexy, high-speed thriller full of hairpin twists and high-tech trickery, Refueled takes the blockbuster Transporter franchise to explosive new heights.” Production Notes
