At the time of writing, fans from all over may already have seen the teaser trailer for the latest "Fast and the Furious" film - "Fate of the Furious" as most of the fandom were left shocked and contemplating what they have just watched.  

The teaser kicked things off with the team pulling off yet another mission despite being chased by a number of pursuit vehicles. When they felt that it's impossible for them to shrug their enemies off, Tej (Ludacris) dropped their plan B in the form of a huge wrecking ball that eventually swept the road clean from enemies.   

The following scenes definitely got fans into a plethora of emotions as Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) slammed Luke Hobbs' (Dwayne Johnson) jeep sending the latter hurling in the air. However, prior to the treacherous act, it can be seen that Dom is noticeably tensed right before the team split ways and shared the other road with Luke.  

Furthermore, the teaser also showcased Charlize Theron who will assume the part of a top brass cyber crook that will make things like hell among Dom's former team. One of the highlight reels of the three-minute video was the part where the team now lead by Luke is having a destruction derby on an icy location against Theron's group including the massive nuclear submarine that forcefully came out of the ice.  

That being said, long-time fans of the franchise are expecting a plot twist on this that Dom might either brainwashed or blackmailed by the blonde terrorist as Nerdist have suggested.   

Meanwhile, TMZ mentioned about the bad blood between Johnson and Diesel as it was noted that the latter is rumored to have this whim of showing up on set about an hour late that irked most of the crew and his co-stars especially Johnson.

However, some fans theorized that this could be just pure publicity due to the fact that Wrestlemania 33 is just a couple of weeks early from "Fast 8's" release.  Hence, the so-called feud between the two may be just part of an elaborate plan that could land a spot in WWE's annual event before "Fate of the Furious" hits the big screen.  

The eighth installment of the film franchise  is expected to be released April of next year.
