Following the huge box office success of "Furious 7," fans can't help but ask if there's going to be a sequel.

The seventh installment to the franchise, which broke the history's record sales, opened with $147 million sales in the U.S. and $406 million worldwide.

And while the entire cast and crew are still enjoying its success according to franchise producer, Neal Moritz, they are already thinking of the "Furious 7" sequel.

And while a sequel is confirmed, the real question is, What will happen to Paul Walker's character, Brian O'Conner?

While it seemed like Dominic Toretto and the rest of the team have retired Brian O'Conner, based on the last scenes from "Furious 7," the successful and unnoticeable CGI appearance of Walker's brothers could still make it possible for O'Conner to appear on the sequel.

But that remains to be seen when Universal Pictures makes the big announcement.
