It looks like we’re going to get a final trilogy for the Fast & Furious series, at least according to star and producer Vin Diesel. He made a statement on his Facebook page after some industry rumblings of issues behind the scenes.

“The fans of the Fast & Furious SAGA are the best fans in the world. Since I became the Producer in 2008, you have been with me every step of the way… literally giving me feedback that proved invaluable. Thank you. My producing partner Neal [H. Moritz] would love for me to just sign off on a director, but this is too special a franchise, so these matters have to be very carefully handled. To be clear, NO ONE has been offered to helm ‘Fast 8′ yet… let alone seen a script. Universal has been so good to me and so trusting of the vision… they have been like family… I promised the studio I would deliver one last Trilogy to end the saga. I will announce the directors on my next post…”

Are you guys ready for more? Though driving isn’t my thing and you’d think these films would be off my radar, I actually love them all. I’m really okay with this. Let me know your thoughts in the comments.
