After first expressing her desire to appear in a FAST & FURIOUS film alongside Vin Diesel, it didn't take too long for Helen Mirren to officially receive an offer to join the FAST & FURIOUS family for FAST 8. Despite feeling a little nervous about actually appearing in the film, Mirren seemed excited to finally be living the dream, despite only being on set for a short amount of time and not getting to drive a car (this time). Vin Diesel was equally excited to have Helen Mirren appear in his little franchise and recently posted a photo of the two of them on the FAST 8 set.
FAST 8 is set for an April 14, 2017 release.
