Fast & Furious 7: Action-Packed First Trailer Unleashed

Just when you thought that the Fast & Furious 7 trailer couldn't get any better, along comes Ludacris to give you lovely MTV readers a personal introduction. Just watch the above!

Back to the trailer itself, and Paul Walker takes centre stage in the first trailer to be released for Fast & Furious 7.

The actor, who tragically died in a car crash last year, is seen with the rest of his crew driving their vehicles out of a cargo plane before deploying parachutes and landing on a road.

Things then get even more dramatic as they take on a heavily armoured articulated lorry - with PW's character Brian O'Conner leaping from his car into the lorry and rescuing a hostage.

The vehicle then crashes onto its side and slides off a cliff edge, leaving O'Conner to perform one of the most spectacular stunts in the history of the franchise as he leaps to safety.

The eagerly awaited sequel sees Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew being pursued by criminal Ian Shaw (Jason Statham) following the death of his brother at Toretto's hand in the last movie.

And the trailer reveals that the action shifts from what appears to be the US to the Middle East later in the movie.

The film is set for release next April.
