The next chapter in the Fast and Furious franchise will hit cinema screens in 2017, star Vin Diesel has confirmed at CinemaCon.<\/p>\n

“You’ve been so loyal all along,” Diesel told the assembled cinema owners. “You helped us create history here.”<\/p>\n

Furious 7 was temporarily halted following the death of star Paul Walker in a car crash two years ago.<\/p>\n

Released this month, it is currently the seventh highest-grossing film ever.<\/p>\n

The film, starring Diesel, Walker, Jason Statham and Michelle Rodriguez, has made $1.15 billion (\u00a3759 million) at the worldwide box office.<\/p>\n

It took a record-breaking $143 million on its opening weekend in the US and became the fastest film to take more than $1 billion (\u00a3669.5 million) worldwide.<\/p>\n

Walker was midway through shooting the movie when he died in November 2013, at the age of 40.<\/p>\n

Special effects technicians and stunt doubles enabled the completion of the project, which has been called “a cathartic experience for fans of Walker”.<\/p>\n

“The last time I was on this stage I was with my brother Pablo,” said an emotional Vin Diesel at CinemaCon on Thursday, referring to his friend Walker by his nickname.<\/p>\n

Reports suggest that Kurt Russell will also return to the latest film – with rumours it will be shot predominantly in New York.<\/p>\n

“We’re going to make the best movie you’ve ever seen,” said Diesel. “Furious 8 will be yours to share with the world on April 14, 2017.”<\/p>\n
