No Diesel Or Walker For 'Fast And Furious 3'

The Rope Of Silicon has posted that both Vin Diesel and Paul Walker will not be back for the third install of Fast and Furious.

What is all this leading to? Well, About.com has posted an interview with producer Neal Moritz and the question came up about Fast and the Furious 3, a project that was rumored to potentially bring back Vin Diesel's character, Dominic Toretto, back into the fold, but that is pretty much shot down as Moritz is asked if it was true that he is doing Fast and the Furious 3 without Vin or Paul Walker and the answer was simply, "Yes, it is."

As far as the story of the film goes and who will be in it is not mentioned but Moritz did say, "Well, we really loved making those two movies and we were looking for a fresh take on how to go into that world again, we came to this idea of going to Japan... It’s where a lot of this stuff started, so it’s about the new level of racing there."
