I had no idea how big the Furious films were, maybe because I only saw the original and don't know anyone that cares about them. I never anticipated it to become on of the top ten grossing films of all time and the highest grossing film in China ever.

What was the production cost on this latest one? I can't imagine they won't make an 8th and 9th one with this much money to be made.

According to imdb.com - an estimated $190 million. $30 million above the previous installment's budget.

Thank you.  I would guess an 8th is guaranteed then given how much profit they've already made on this one.  Was the actor who passed critical in a way that say a Johnny Depp is to the Pirates of the Caribbean films?
