According to Dark Horizons, Vin Diesel might return for The Fast and the Furious 3. Paul Walker might not:

"Vin Diesel's deal is 99.9 closed. They're keeping this under wraps while they develop the story because he did have a deal for the second pic that he opted out of. Because of his box office as of late (and the growing fear that "Riddick" may not be the blockbuster that the studio is hoping for) this is a no brainer as he's desperate for the stability a franchise offers. Paul Walker's character as of the early treatments is not involved in anything more than a cameo".

It is unclear whether Tyrese, who co-starred in the second film, will return.
