Vin introduced a highlight reel of the Fast And Furious movies, which also starred his late co-star Paul Walker, who died during a break in filming the seventh film.

“This was a very personal movie and the stakes are very personal. We really love each other, we really are a family. We felt that in the movie,” he said.

The star added: “It’s hard for me to even watch that clip and come out here without being emotional. But most importantly, I mean it from the bottom of my heart, that you guys, you help us make this special.”

The announcement about the eighth film comes after Fast And Furious 7 took pole position at the global box office.

Stars such as Chris Pratt, Seth MacFarlane, Ice Cube, Dr Dre and Guillermo del Toro unveiled teaser clips of films such as Jurassic World, Everest, Crimson Peak, Straight Outta Compton, Ted 2 and Sisters at the event.
