Fast & Furious 7 Will Be Released In April 2015, Vin Diesel Says

The show must go on, even if it'll go on later than expected. An overhauled "Fast & Furious 7" will hit theaters on April 10, 2015, almost a year after its previous July 2014 release date. And the late Paul Walker will be in it.

Walker's death led to some questions about the latest film in the franchise, but co-star Vin Diesel assured fans that the movie will still be released in a surprise announcement on his Facebook page.

There was a unique sense of completion, of
pride we shared... in the film we were now completing... the magic captured...
and, in just how far we've come... Fast and Furious 7 will be released... April 10th 2015! P.s. He'd want you to know first...

Diesel also shared a still, posted above, of him and Walker on set; it's "the last scene we filmed together," he writes. It's unknown just how much of the film has been re-done in the wake of Walker's accident — including scenes with his brother, reportedly — or if a planned eighth film in the franchise will continue production.
