The highly anticipated sixth installment of the "Fast & Furious" franchise is set to hit theatres this weekend and many media outlets are already predicting historic Memorial Day weekend box-office numbers for the action-packed film.

The newest movie features the return of regulars like Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, but nothing was more shocking than when it was revealed Michelle Rodriguez's character was returning from the dead.

When Rodriguez appeared in the first trailer released for "Fast & Furious 6," many people were left wondering how director Justin Lin is planning on bringing Letty Ortiz back.

Rodriguez's character was "killed off" in film 4, or at least we thought she was.

"You get to see her probably a little after the first act. There's a revelation that she's around and it's about that impactful moment where they actually encounter each other when he's thought that she was dead for so long," Rodriguez said to The Daily Mail.

"And I think that's going to be a moment that's going to be pretty impactful...and from there it's all about getting Letty back together. How that happens is going to be interesting" the actress added.

Universal has done all it can to advertise the movie, even releasing a game for smart phones.

"Fast & Furious 6: The Game" was released last week for mobile devices like Apple's iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S4.
