The fans of the Fast & Furious SAGA are the best fans in the world… Since I became the Producer in 2008, you have been…

Vin Diesel has confirmed on his Facebook page that the long-running Fast & Furious film series – which has so far spawned seven full-length feature films, alongside two short films – will finally be coming to an end, but not with the next film, Fast & Furious 8. Instead, the lead star and director of the franchise said that the upcoming movie will be part of one last trilogy, before the series takes the chequered flag.
Diesel also said that a decision on a director for Fast and Furious 8 – a release date for which has already been set for April 14, 2017 – has yet to be made, as “this is too special a franchise, so these matters have to be very carefully handled.” He did, however, add that he will reveal who will take the helm of the film soon.
The next film has big shoes to fill, coming in the wake of the highly-acclaimed and hugely successful Furious 7. In the record books, that movie stands as the fifth highest-grossing film of all time, and was also the fastest to reach the US$1 billion mark, furiously blasting past in just 17 days.
Of course, it also served as an emotional tribute to Paul Walker in his last appearance as Brian O’Connor, after passing away in a fatal road accident in 2013.

Maybe for the final movie, they should just call it “Slow and Steady” :P
Boring movie series …
Watch Fifty Shades Of Grey then.Nobody stops you.
And can feature our homemade Proton and Perodua cars instead :P
…featuring Suprima S, and Perodua yet to be named sports mini…
So, the Fast And Furious 8 will have Part 1 and 2.
too loud too slow. Malaysian edition
The series was a cash cow for them. It might even continue until Fast & Furious 11 or 12.
Script? Good one. haha
don’t think they will stop even after the “final trilogy”. no one does this kind of movie more successful than them, and it’s a cash cow for both the actors and the studio. letting go of it can prove to be quite hard.
if Hollywood ends Fast and Furious movies,
perhaps of Malaysia PM (with his “good connection”) can finance and start-off our own Fast and furious Malaysia version..
Let’s call it…
So Auta, So Mahal!
+++featuring nothing but proton cars+++
Proton designs are too ugly, so not in the movie
