Well, it seems you can't keep a good thing down.
Considering the absolutely INSANE amount of money that F&F 7 made at the box-office, it should come as no surprise to anyone that a sequel's on the way.
Jason Statham, who played big baddie Deckard Shaw, is set for a return as the villain. However, he may possibly have some company on that front.
Dame Helen Mirren - yes, THAT Dame Helen Mirren - has expressed an interest in starring in the Fast & Furious franchise as a villain, even going so far as to state it publicly where people were listening.
Vin Diesel, in a recent interview, has said that he loves the idea and wants to see her in the franchise.
Obviously, we're a long, long way away from an official announcement, but that comment by Diesel brings us one step closer to seeing an Oscar-winning actress and Dame of the Order of the British Empire driving sideways up a building to a dubstep soundtrack.
It's gonna be incredible, folks. Come get on the hype train.
