Universal Pictures is not holding back in building excitement for its upcoming "Furious 7" film, and this time they've unleashed a new, longer trailer that is just as crazy and action-packed as the first, The Verge reported.
Following the already intense first trailer that was released during Super Bowl, a second extended trailer was released on Thursday. It features some of the same exciting scenes as the first one. However, it also gave fans a longer look at cars skydiving off a plane, more people getting beat up and thrown around and also more information about the film's vengeful villain, Deckard Shaw.
Jason Statham plays Deckard, the older brother of Owen Shaw, who was killed following a face off against Dominic, Brian and the gang in the previous film. Now his big brother wants revenge, and it's not going to be easy to beat the former special forces assassin.
As Luke Hobbs claimed, "They created a monster."
There are also clips of Shaw and Hobbs going at it, throwing punches and kicks and slamming one another on the floor. However, Shaw has a trick up his sleeve and threw a grenade, sending Hobbs flying out the window.
Now Shaw has his sight set on the gang, but as Tej put it, "We're being hunted."
Fans need not fear though because Dominic has a team to back him up. Rather, not a team, but a family, according to Huffington Post.
"Shaw lives in a world that doesn't play by your rules," a man said. "Like it or not, your friends are part of it now."
Dominic quickly disagrees, "I don't have friends. I got a family."
There are a lot of glimpses of Dominic's family, including Brian O'Conner, who was played by the late Paul Walker, according to News. One scene even has the actor jumping off a car that was driving off a cliff and also performing stunts, beating up baddies and racing cars.
Sadly, Walker was unable to finish the film following his tragic car accident in 2013. However, Universal and director James Wan kept Walker's scenes in the film and filmed some more with the help of CGI effects and Walker's brothers Caleb and Cody Walker.
It remains to be seen how they were able to film Walker's exit in the film, but despite the actor's passing, it's obvious he's still considered a big part of the family by the cast, crew, film and franchise.
"Furious 7" stars Walker, Statham, Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Lucas Black, Elsa Pataky, Kurt Russell, Djimon Hounsou and more. It opens in theaters on April 3, 2015.
