Some have been calling for the Fast & Furious franchise to end for years, and saw last year’s Fast X as the sure-fire best time to do it. But there’s more money to be made, and we knew a sequel was coming in 2025 that would not only bring back Vin Diesel and the rest of his “family”, but also Dwayne Johnson back into the fold. But now we know for sure that those who have been eyeing the finish line are about to get their wish, once and for all.
In a new Instagram post, Diesel confirmed the next Fast & Furious movie, the eleventh, will be the last.
“Just finished our end-of-the-week’ Fast meeting’ with the writers and the whole team… to say the excitement for our finale was incredibly powerful is an understatement,” Diesel wrote. “Wow. So exciting… While everyone was heading into the weekend amped and excited, I thought of you all… reminded of the countless moments when your enthusiasm and passion became the driving force behind our creative journey. Your commitment to our saga has had a unique impact on its success and evolution… as my youngest daughter would say, it’s profound. Thank you for being the backbone of this global saga that because of you, transcends the screen. This grand finale is not just an ending; it’s a celebration of the incredible family we’ve built together.”
Let’s be clear; this sounds like the end of the core series of movies. But don’t be surprised if there are more Hobbs & Shaw flicks, and perhaps another spinoff or two. Universal will never let this thing die.
There was no mention of the sexual battery allegations against Diesel that emerged late last year. Speculation was this could derail the next movie or perhaps get Diesel removed from them entirely, but that’s not happening.
Currently, Fast & Furious 11 is set to hit theaters on April 4th 2025, directed by Louis Leterrier.
