"Fast and Furious" actor Vin Diesel took to Instagram to tease fans about the upcoming car-racing-themed movie, "Fast and Furious 8". The actor posted an unofficial poster of the movie which reveals a new logo.
Earlier last month, Diesel hinted that the eighth movie would take place in New York. "Kurt Russell came in for this movie. But we really hired him because of a story that follows this that takes place in New York," he said. The new poster he shared seems to confirm that the main setting of the movie will be in New York as it features New York City skyline as the backdrop. The poster also reminds people that the movie will open in "Summer 2017", just like the tagline written in the poster.
It has already been confirmed that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will reprise his role as Luke Hobbs in the "Furious 7" sequel. Eva Mendes is also expected to return to the movie as U.S. Customs agent Monica Fuentes, but the rumor has yet to be confirmed.
Chris Morgan wrote the screenplays for the last five "Fast and Furious" movies but it is unknown if he'll write the screenplay for the eighth movie or not.
