Thai Actor Tony Jaa (who starred in Ong-Bak Muay Thai Warrior) is joining the cast of fast and Furious 7, the upcoming Fast and Furious movie that’s set to pit Vin Diesel against Jason Statham.
“After Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew helped take down Owen Shaw in F&F6, his brother Ian Shaw (Jason Statham) now wants revenge.”
Tony Jaa is a martial arts expert, but he’s a puny man next to Statham and Diesel…
Anyway, a few words from Tony Jaa:
“I have been a big fan of the Fast and Furious franchise. The films are fast-paced, fun and keep the audience involved. There is a great mix of humor and action, something I really appreciate. There is no better film to be involved in for a first U.S. studio production.”

Unfortunately we don’t know yet what his role will be in the film. Do you think he’s going to join Dom Toretto’s team? Or is he going to play an antagonist?
In theaters: July 11, 2014.
