Considering that Fast & Furious has posted a domestic haul of nearly $120 million after only 10 days of release it should come as no surprise that a fifth installment of the series is on the way.

Star Paul Walker told the LA Times that, "...with the way things opened up, Vin and I will be coming back, we’re making a fifth one, and we’re going to Brazil, that’s it."

The first film in the franchise raked in $144.5 million domestically in 2001 ($183.7 million adjusted). Even though Vin Diesel didn't return, 2003's 2 Fast 2 Furious grossed an incredibly solid $127 million domestic ($151.4 million when adjusted). 2006's Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, which didn't feature Walker or Diesel in the leads, grossed a modest $62.6 million domestically ($68 million when adjusted for inflation).
