“Fast and Furious 4″ First look
USA Today has debuted the first three official photos from Universal Pictures’ “Fast and Furious 4“.
The fourth installment of the street-racing saga will enjoy a rarity among franchises: the return of original stars. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker reprise their roles as outlaw and cop.
Even Justin Lin, who directed 2006’s “Tokyo Drift“, has been surprised by the franchise’s reach.
Lin says:
“I was in Barcelona, and a kid from Spain comes up and just says “Fast and Furious”. It’s amazing how many kids know it.”
Vin Diesel:
“We were doing a movie about illegal racing before most people even knew how popular it was.” How many franchises are that based on the real world?”

Vin Diesel Talks About ‘Fast And The Furious 4′
Vin Diesel sat down with MTV News to talk about the upcoming forth installment of “The Fast and the Furious”, mentioning the reasons for his return to the franchise.
“I think doing the cameo in ‘Tokyo Drift’ confirmed a lot of things for me,” said Diesel. “It confirmed that if you create a role that the world kind of identifies with, or the world adopts, sometimes you have that responsibility to revisit that role. I’m a little bit slower than the average actor that just jumps into the sequel, but I think the time has come to revisit Dom Toretto.”
