"The studio said to me, 'Vin, can we please have the finale of 'Fast and Furious' in April 2027? I said, 'Under three conditions.' First, is to bring the franchise back to L.A.! The second thing was to return to the car culture, to the street racing! The third thing was reuniting Dom and Brian O'Conner," said Vin Diesel as quoted by Variety.
According to the outlet, Paul Walker, who played the role of Brian, died in a car crash at the age of 40 in 2013. If he were to star in the final 'Fast and Furious,' he would need to be digitally inserted.
