Fast & Furious 7 may have been a major success this year, but the cast and crew of the series are already looking ahead to the eighth instalment. Now, reports are indicating that the eighth film will begin a trilogy that will lead to the end of the series.
The news comes from actor Vin Diesel, who has appeared in the films as Dominic Toretto since the first film in the franchise. Vin Diesel said the following on his Facebook page in regard to this:
“Universal has been so good to me and so trusting of the vision… they have been like family… I promised the studio I would deliver one last Trilogy to end the saga.”
His full post is quoted below:
“The fans of the Fast & Furious SAGA are the best fans in the world… Since I became the Producer in 2008, you have been with me every step of the way… literally giving me feedback that proved invaluable. Thank you.
My producing partner Neal would love for me to just sign off on a director, but this is too special a franchise, so these matters have to be very carefully handled. To be clear, NO ONE has been offered to helm Fast 8 yet… let alone seen a script.
Universal has been so good to me and so trusting of the vision… they have been like family… I promised the studio I would deliver one last Trilogy to end the saga.
I will announce the directors on my next post…”
This means the series will end with Fast & Furious 10.
Fast 8 will be released on April 14th, 2017.
Thoughts on this report? Are you disappointed that the Fast & Furious series could be ended after three more films?
