The action in the trailer is, as the title suggests, Fast and Furious and we are treated to no end of stunts and action set pieces on the no holds barred trailer.

The regular crew is all present including Charlize Theron, Michelle Rodriguez and Helen Mirren to name but a few of the familiar faces who pop up in the trailer.

To announce the trailer Universal Pictures treated us to a lavish live concert featuring top musical artists like Cardi B, Wiz Khalifa ad Charlie Puth.
