UPDATED: We have been told that the title of the film in the UK will remain FAST & FURIOUS 7, as opposed to the US, where it will be known as FURIOUS 7.
We suspected that the next FAST & FURIOUS movie would become simply FURIOUS 7, and now that news is confirmed as the official synopsis and teaser poster are released. Hitting cinemas next April, the James Wan directed sequel stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Elsa Pataky and Lucas Black. ALong for the ride this time are franchise newcomers Jason Statham, Djimon Hounsou, Tony Jaa, Ronda Rousey and Kurt Russell.
Heres that synopsis, as released by the studio.
