Fast & Furious 8 Movie News: Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson Will Be Riding Shotgun As Fast & Furious Thrill Ride Speeds Into Universal Orlando Resort In 2017

Fast & Furious 8 Movie News: Fans who get antsy while waiting for "Fast & Furious 8" will be able to live the action themselves. Universal Orlando Resort announced that Fast & Furious: Supercharged will join its lineup of attractions.

Led by film stars Vin Diesel (Dom Toretto), Dwayne Johnson (Hobbs), Michelle Rodriguez (Letty) and Tyrese Gibson (Roman), guests will feel like part of the "Fast family" as they embark on a thrilling new Fast & Furious adventure.

Fast & Furious is Universal Pictures' highest-grossing film franchise of all time.  Since the release of the first film in 2001, the Fast & Furious series has become a cultural phenomenon.  Together, all seven installments have grossed nearly $3.9 billion at the worldwide box office. 

The most recent film, Fast and Furious 7, was released in April and became the fifth-highest-grossing film of all time, with more than $1.5 billion in global box office.  In addition, Universal Studios Hollywood introduced its own Fast & Furious-Supercharged this summer, which serves as the grand finale to its world famous Studio Tour. 

Fast & Furious: Supercharged will replace Beetlejuice Graveyard Revue and Disaster: A Major Motion Picture Starring You! at Universal Studios Florida.  Disaster will close on September 8, 2015 and Beetlejuice will close later this year to make way for the new attraction.

Guests will experience a high-octane journey that fuses an original storyline and incredible ride technology with everything that fans love about the films-popular characters, exhilarating environments, nonstop action and, of course, high-speed cars. 

Fast And Furious fans will be immersed in the underground racing world made famous in the films, explore the headquarters of Toretto and his team and even get to check out some of the supercharged cars they've seen on the big screen.  Guests will then board specially-designed vehicles and take off on an adrenaline-pumping ride with their favorite stars from the films.

Further details about Universal Orlando's Fast & Furious attraction will be released in the future.
