When Paul Walker passed away in a car crash mid-production on Furious 7, the world mourned. We thought it would be the last we’d see of Brian O’Conner, his Fast & Furious character. Fast and Furious 8 is currently in production under the direction of F Gary Gray for a 2017 release. As Vin Diesel previously announced, the eighth film would be the first in the final trilogy that will close out with Fast 9 in 2019 and Fast 10 in 2021. From what Caleb Walker revealed, Diesel and the producers seem to be actually contemplating bringing Brian O’Conner back.
