Universal Pictures is putting the gears in motion for a third installment of "The Fast and the Furious" and is hoping that Vin Diesel will return to the driver's seat after sitting out the second film.
Diesel and Paul Walker starred in the first "Fast," which grossed $144.5 million domestically. Although Universal originally sought Diesel to reprise his role as Dominic Toretto in the sequel, negotiations broke down, and the studio opted to build the second film in the series around Walker, who teamed up with Tyrese for last year's "2 Fast 2 Furious," which grossed $127 million.
Universal, which will release Diesel starrer "The Chronicles of Riddick" on June 11, has begun to rev up the "Fast" team by hiring Chris Morgan ("S.W.A.T.") to pen a script that would accommodate Diesel's return to the street-racing franchise.
The studio said no deal is in place with the actor, adding that it is "looking to bring back certain elements from the first two films."
While reps for Diesel said he is interested in the project, pending completion of the screenplay, Walker's reps said he is not currently committed to a third movie. Diesel's recent credits include "XXX" and "Pitch Black."
