'Fast and Furious 8' Update: Lucas Black to Replace Paul Walker's Character? Cara Delevingne Boards Sequel; Production To Start Next Month In Iceland

The ending of 'Fast and Furious 7' have left the fans in awe and in tears after Paul Walker's Brian O'Conner and Vin Diesel's Dominic Toretto parted their ways. With the former gone, 'Fast and Furious 8' is expected to feature someone who will fill the vacant spot and rumor has it that Lucas Black was tapped to replace the late actor's character. 

Walker's character, Brian O'Conner did not die in 'FF7,' he just parted ways with his buddy, Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel). Fans are wondering if there is any chance that he will appear in the film. To the audience's dismay, Australia Network News reports that 'FF8' might not include the papearance of O'Conner.

But without Walker's character in the film, who will be Toretto's partner? This sparks rumors that Toretto will have a new buddy. Allegedly, Lucas Black will return for his role as Sean Boswell in 'FF8' and will accompany Toretto.

'Paper Towns' actress Cara Delevingne is also joining the cast of 'FF8', according to Parent Herald. Fans, however, are curious how Michelle Rodriguez (Letty) would take this news as they were noted to be former flames. Apparently, it is not a problem for Rodriguez to work with Delevingne in 'FF8.' In fact, she is actually entertained the idea of having the supermodel on board.

Other than Delevingne, Charlize Theron who played as Imperator Furiosa in 'Mad Max: Fury Road' will also appear in the sequel with Helen Mirren and Eva Mendez. Jordana Brewster might also be joining 'FF8' but it is not yet confirmed.
