Vin Diesel Claims Paul Walker Wants ‘Fast and Furious 8’ Made; Michelle Rodriguez Talks Bi-Sexuality

Ever since the Universal cast and crew returned to the Fast and Furious 7 shoot last April, Vin Diesel has been insisting that they were finishing the movie to honor their fallen co-star, Paul Walker, who died in a fiery car crash late November 2013. According to the latest gossip news updates, the Riddick action star is now claiming that Paul Walker also wants them to complete Fast 8 for the fans as well. While Michelle Rodriguez hasn't mentioned anything about Walker demanding another sequel from heaven, Cara Delevingne's openly bi-sexual ex-girlfriend did say that it was her Fast character's lack of sexuality that first drew her to franchise -- not family.

It has been obvious for months now that Vin Diesel has had some trouble adjusting to the tragic and sudden death of his good friend and Fast and Furious co-star, Paul Walker, but now things are starting to get a little creepy.

Taking a rest from touting all the reason that he thinks the new Fast film deserves a Best Picture Oscar --the retired bouncer is now claiming that Paul Walker wants everyone to get together for at least one more sequel.

In a recent interview with MTV News, Diesel explained that Paul should practically be given a producing credit on the next movie, since they are only making it on his say so (via CelebDirtyLaundry):

"Paul use to say that Fast & Furious 8 was guaranteed. In some ways when your brother guarantees something, you have to make sure it comes to pass.

"So if fate has it, fate, F8, then you'll get it.

"Furious 7 was for Paul; 8 is from Paul."

 As insane as that logic sounds, it seems that Diesel has already used it to get Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on board F8 money train.

While Johnson didn't get into Paul's influence on the movie making process, he did tell MTV that he was certainly excited about potentially ratcheting things up another level on the insane action scale:

"I talked to Vin today.

"We had a nice discussion, and I think whatever it is, whatever we come up with for Furious 8, we have to raise the bar, in terms of action, but also in terms of story and character."

Michelle Rodriguez, who has come out as bi-sexual since first joining the Fast franchise, told El PaÃs that she originally took the role of Letti, because she didn't have any of the romantic attachments to Diesel's character that she does today (via The Record):

"I avoided sex as if you were avoiding a bullet because Hispanic roles always have been about bad girls, temptation and sluts.

"But I don't want anything of that.

"Sexual freedom has won me."

Well...now we know why she always played the bad ass zombie to Milla Jovovick's killer sex kitten in all those Resident Evil movies.
