Due to the strong performance of Fast & Furious 6, Memorial Day weekend revenues hit $314.2 million in the U.S., besting the previous 2011 record of roughly $276 million.
Vin Diesel has shared a first look at Fast & Furious 7 on his Facebook page, including a still of himself with his late co-star Paul Walker.
The actor decided to share the photos after watching the trailer for the upcoming Universal release, directed by James Wan. The seventh installment recruited Walker’s brothers, Caleb and Cody, as stand-ins for the franchise’s Brian O’Connor character following the actor’s fatal car accident in November.

“Speechless … yeah, it was that INCREDIBLE!” he wrote of the trailer for Walker’s last film. “I must also say, that it was emotional and bittersweet … we all went above and beyond to make Pablo proud, but man, I wish he could see what we have created and just how far we have come.”
