Fans are going mental on Twitter as Fast and Furious changes its name
The new trailer for Fast & Furious 8 will drop in just a few days and, as excitement is rising for the latest instalment, fans are intrigued by the flick's new title.
And what about the title? Well, it's not Fast & Furious anymore – it's The Fate of the Furious.
The new movie begins with the main characters, Dom, Letty, Mia and Brian settling down into a normal lifestyle, until a mysterious woman seduces Dom back into the world of crime.
Fan reactions are ranging from totally perplexed to absolutely loving it, and of course, taking the p*ss out of it:
Well, they certainly already won 2017's greatest movie title. https://t.co/nms5dIoe92

I guess Fast 8 is going to be called "THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS". Because of course it is.

Still reeling from the announcement that the next Fast is called The Fate of the Furious. Whoever came up with that deserves a promotion.
