Diesel also paid tribute to friend and co-star, the late <strong>Paul Walker<\/strong> as he reminisced about how they had jointly announced <em>Furious 7<\/em>, two year ago.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Fast and Furious<\/em> franchise experienced a rebirth after the 4<sup>th<\/sup> installment, <em>Fast and<\/em> <em>Furious<\/em> surpassed expectations back in 2009. Things only got better when the hang held Rio hostage in <em>Fast Five<\/em>, in 2011, which helped cement the indefinite and lucrative future of a saga whose humble beginnings in 2001, though impressive never hinted at the prospect of continual global domination.<\/p>\n<p>But almost 14 years later, the 8<sup>th<\/sup> chapter is about to be initiated and one of the most beloved and crucial characters, Brian O\u2019Conner, played by [Walker], who tragically perished in a car crash in 2013, in the middle of filming <em>Furious 7<\/em>, is retired from the crew and his departure was staged in a touching and memorable way. But his absence will no doubt alter the shape of things and change the course of the remaining core characters.<\/p>\n<p>The appeal of the franchise has always been the reliable formula of family and loyalty shared amongst a multi-ethnic gang of specialized misfits who seem to find themselves in extraordinary circumstances. This tradition should expectedly continue with future films even if the dynamic shifts with the absence of the bromance between Dominic Torreto and Brian O\u2019Connor.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how this next installment will shape up and whether or not director <strong>James Wan<\/strong> will be back in the driver\u2019s seat. <em>Game of Thrones<\/em> actress <strong>Nathalie<\/strong> <strong>Emmanuel<\/strong> who joined the team as a computer hacker might very well be back to ride or die with the crew. Diesel has also hinted that <em>Furious 8<\/em>, which might be headed to The Big Apple, will also welcome back <strong>Kurt Russell<\/strong> who will embody a bigger role this time around.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, the Fast Family won\u2019t be the same without the boyish charm of <strong>Paul Walker<\/strong>, but these past few weeks have proven that the franchise can still race to the finish line without losing steam.<\/p>\n<p>Diesel acknowledged on his Facebook page during the festive spirit of<em> Furious 7\u2019s<\/em>\u00a0immediate release that the latest installment was #ForPaul while <em>Furious 8<\/em> will be #FromPaul.<\/p>\n<p>Judging from the overwhelming evidence, we have to agree.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- google_ad_section_end -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the heels of the epic success of Furious 7, which has amazingly grossed over $1 billion worldwide, a feat [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1,38,6],"tags":[2252,1876,2253,1811,1815,1663,1664],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.3 -
