'Furious 7' Release Date News and Rumors: New Still of Letty and Dom Released
Entertainment Weekly has given us a new still from the production of 'Furious 7' the much awaited seventh installment in the 'Fast and Furious' franchise, and the same one that halted production after the death of Paul Walker. The new still depicts characters Letty Ortiz (portrayed by Michelle Rodriguez) and Dominic 'Dom' Toretto (Vin Diesel) having an interesting moment. In the still we see Dom smiling at Letty. But what is that expression? Is he smiling nervously?
Sheepishly? Tersely? We'll likely find out when 'Furious 7' hits theaters on April 3rd 2015. In the meantime Diesels short comment to Entertainment Weekly will have to suffice. When asked he said, "our characters are going into a shadow world beyond what they could have ever imagined." Specific? No. Exciting? Yes!
In other news we know that Jason Statham, who appeared at the end of Fast and Furious 7 will play a major role portraying the main antagonist out for revenge after the death of his brother Owen Shaw in the hands of Dom and the gang in 'Fast and Furious 6.' There are still no details as to upon exactly which character Ian Shaw (Statham) will seek to exact his revenge, though a comment by Vin Diesel at least tells us that his character and Statham's get physical. Diesel told E! Online "We both walked away with a lot of injuries...nothing permanent."
Fans are growing more curious by the second to see how production wrapped up without Paul Walker, with the only info so far being that his brothers Codey and Caleb filled in for him after production resumed. Rumor has it that they filled in as body doubles, and that Paul Walkers character will likley be "retired" from the team instead of killed off.
Also starring in the new movie are recurring actors Dwayne Johnson, Tyrese Gibson, and (arguably an actor) Ludacris, among others. Look for it in theaters next Fall.
