Drifting Back to the Franchise

Lucas Black is ready to push his petal to the metal once again.

Eight years after starring in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the 42 actor is set to reprise his role as Sean Boswell in Fast & Furious 7.

Black reportedly has signed on to become a regular fixture of the franchise from now on (he is expected to appear in at least the next three movies).

Fast & Furious 7 – starring Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jason Statham, Kurt Russell, and Djimon Hounsou – is filming now and is due out next July.
