Even though Paul Walker will always be missed in Fast & Furious series, the show must go on.

Having said that, Vin Diesel shared the first poster of the movie featuring him, staring at the open roads. Furious 8 will be the first movie to not feature Paul Walker, who died in a car accident in November 2013. "New roads ahead," the poster reads.

The movie is all set to hit the theatres on April 14, 2017. The latest installment of Fast & Furious series will feature some new faces, including that of Scott Eastwood, Clint Eastwood's son, and Charlize Theron. Last week, Eastwood shared a picture of him at the sets in Atlanta, Georgia, along with Ludacris, Tyrese and director F. Gary Gray.

"Little behind the scenes.... can't show you too much," he teased. "But what I can say is @tyrese and @ludacris and @fgarygray couldn't been more welcoming. Really good dudes. Had a great first day. Lots of laughs."

The cast is also very excited to have Theron on the sets.

"I feel like her coming on board -- girl power," Tyrese told ET exclusively about the Oscar-winning actress. "What we pride [ourselves in] in the Fast and Furious[franchise] is a very diversified cast that's translating domestically and internationally in a major way."

"When you look at the movie poster and you look to the left, you look to the right, I'm like, 'Fellas, we need some more women in here, man. We got to change this thing up a bit,'" he continued. "We have bits and pieces of power women in it, but we needed to bring it up a notch. [We were] looking into the Ronda Rouseys -- Michelle Rodriguez has been holding it down since day one -- but we got Jordana Brewster and Charlize, we're really stepping it up."
