Eva Mendes, Ronda Rousey and Joanna Jedrzejczyk are three of the women that fans may see in the upcoming installment of the "Fast And Furious 8."
There are reports that Mendes may return to "Fast & Furious 8" reprising her role as United States Customs Agent Monica Fuentes who first appeared in "2 Fast 2 Furious." There is no official confirmation from Universal Pictures yet.
Meanwhile, Rousey has a kickass star in mind for a role in the upcoming movie. When MTV asked the actress and UFC Champion about who could be her opponent in the next "Furious" movie, she replied, "Joanna [Jedrzejczyk]. She's a chick who just won the 115-pound belt."
Describing Jedrzejczyk as "really tiny and skinny" but "such a little ninja," Rousey explained, "I think it would be a such a cool addition - someone who looks really unassuming. I know I look good in a Herve Leger dress, but I also look like I could still kill you in it, and Joanna doesn't!"
In other related "Fast And Furious" news, Diesel also revealed that the upcoming movie will be shot in New York and will hit the theaters on Apr. 14, 2017. "Fast And Furious 8" will focus on the life of Mr. Nobody and as the actor put it, the upcoming movie will be the best one yet.
"Fast And Furious 8" will be a tribute to the late actor Paul Walker and his brother Cody Walker, who is also interested in an acting career, is reportedly joining the cast.
