Die-hard Fast & Furious fans might have something new to look forward to that’s not another movie.

Moving beyond the big screen, Fast & Furious Live looks to bring to life the physics-defying stunts often seen in the movies. The tour will kick off January 2018 and will be brought to life by Brand Events, the same company that did Top Gear Live. “Using the most advanced technology and featuring all the favorite cars from the blockbuster series, Fast & Furious Live will evoke the most audacious moments from the beloved series,” Universal said in a press release. “Audiences will feel the heat from flaming exhausts and marvel at mind-blowing vehicular acrobatics as scene after scene unfolds with the most immersive, entertaining technology imaginable.”

It appears the tour will re-create the streets of Los Angeles to locations all around the world. Unfortunately, dates and locations for Fast & Furious Live haven’t been announced, so expect those details to come later this year.

It’s unclear if any of the actors will be tied to the events, but The Guardian reports none of the cast has been linked to the production. We wouldn’t be shocked to see guest appearances from the movie’s cast, however, considering how passionate they are about the franchise, especially Vin Diesel.
