He told Extra: “There is a very big rumor that Kurt Russell will come in, and because it's you, I'll give you a little more… the eighth script in the series is somewhat akin to 'Escape from New York'.

“This won't make sense now, but it will make sense later. Kurt Russell was the perfect person to introduce in '7' to play out the eighth storyline that everyone is going to go crazy on.”

Alongside Diesel and Russell, 'Fast & Furious 7' stars Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Statham and Tyrese Gibson.

It's due out in July, 2014.
