Jay Beezy Posted June 5, 2013 Posted June 5, 2013 (edited) In the wake of Jason Statham joining the franchise, thus completing the holy trinity of 3B (Big, Bald, and Brawny) action stars, it seems like Vin is quite open to casting suggestions. Who else would you like to join the franchise, in terms of both new stars (as what new characters) and returning characters?My suggestion of Liam Neeson as Dom and co.'s final and most powerful threat was quite popular. He could play the long lost biological father of Brian that he mentioned and could use that to emotionally compromise the protagonists.Lots of people want Sean Boswell/Lucas Black back as part of the team. And also Carter Verone/Cole Hauser as a villain again, but it would only work if he was aligning himself with Statham. Plus, Monica Fuentes/Eva Mendes back somehow, which would make for good comic awkwardness between her and Mia.I also suggested DK Takashi/Brian Tee, who was once a villain, could be brought back as a protagonist looking for redemption.

Dragon Posted June 7, 2013 Posted June 7, 2013 New I agree with Liam as knew. Returning characters Leon Monica Fuentes Sean DK Takashi
Jay Beezy Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 I have another idea for Fast 8. Have the Hobbs spinoff happen between 7 and 8, and the villain in the spinoff join forces with Statham and Verone. The villain is then played by Karl Urban.
Jay Beezy Posted June 7, 2013 Author Posted June 7, 2013 That would be a good way to build hype for 8. My God, I need to be working with Vin Diesel.
Jay Beezy Posted June 8, 2013 Author Posted June 8, 2013 Anna Kendrick She can join the Hobbs spinoff under the moniker 'The Pebble' like she said on Twitter. 1
MrPink Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 Ja Rule and Cole Hauser returning would make my life complete.
Jay Beezy Posted June 19, 2013 Author Posted June 19, 2013 About my Liam Neeson suggestion, does anyone feel like he might be a little too old by the time someone like him would be brought on as the final villain or do you think he'll still have some fight left in him when the time comes?

Jay Beezy Posted July 9, 2013 Author Posted July 9, 2013 bring Han & Gisele from the dead! They need to stay dead, especially since we now see it was Statham that killed the latter. 1
Jay Beezy Posted August 1, 2013 Author Posted August 1, 2013 Based on them wanting to bring in Denzel for Fast 8, I say they try for someone like Idris Elba, Ving Rhames, or Laurence Fishburne.
jimisawesome Posted August 12, 2013 Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) The blond from the beginning of the Tokyo Drift needs to be back. Ted Levine needs to come back. The dude that played Hector would be an awesome welcome back. Orange Julius has to be back. Don't know why he has not been back yet. Sonny Chiba cameo Would love to see Scott Adkins as a villain in one of them. Not just a villain but as Boyka Edited August 12, 2013 by jimisawesome
