During the 2015 MTV Movie Awards, Vin Diesel sang “See You Again,” the touching tribute song to his Furious 7 co-star Paul Walker. After leaving the stage, Vin Diesel confirmed plans for Fast & Furious 8 in an interview with MTV.
In regards to Fast & Furious 8 going to New York, Vin Diesel said, “Well, I was trying to keep it close to the vest throughout the release. Paul [Walker] used to say that eight was guaranteed. And in some ways, when your brother guarantees something, you sometimes feel like you have to make sure it comes to pass.”
