Vin Diesel Teases "Angels Coming" To The FAST AND FURIOUS Mythology Will Make Fans Smile
Vin Diesel and his creative team have been hard at work preparing to close out the Fast and Furious franchise with two more films. The actor and producer recently took to social media to offer a little tease of what’s coming as they complete the “mythology” and says there are “angles coming” to the mythology that will make fans smile. You can read his full statement below:
"Good morning planet… I know I haven't posted in a minute, when people in the world suffer I tend to pull back from the shallow acts of social media. However, I know there are many of you who really sincerely wait to hear from me and to know where my state of mind lies. I am approaching the finale of the first saga… that is Fast. It is very intense, although god has brought such incredible talent to assist me in completing this mythology, I can't help but to reminisce… you all have been a part of this journey.
“You all have been a part of this family. I can't believe that universal studios is committed to a two part finale… their support and belief in this mythology surprises me and makes me smile. There are angels coming to this mythology that will make you all smile. Haha. I love you all… and I from the bottom of my soul, hope to make you proud."
Franchise director Justin Lin will be back to helm the film, and some of the other cast members joining Diesel include Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Sung Kang, and Charlize Theron. Jason Momoa is also set to play a villain in the film, which he described as a “very flamboyant bad boy."
I’m sure there are going to be a lot of other people that show up in the film as well. I’ve heard and read rumors about one of Paul Walker’s brothers coming back to play Brian. This hasn’t been confirmed, but it makes sense that Diesel would like to bring the character back in some way as they close out the franchise that Paul Walker helped launch.
It will be interesting to see how they actually close out this franchise and what story that will be. We still don’t have any details on that, but I’ve been committed to this franchise from the beginning and I’ll show up to see how it closes out.
