Will There Be a Fast & Furious 11?
While “Fast X” may mark the final chapter in the franchise, the story won’t conclude with just one movie. The film is slated to be divided into two parts. According to the latest reports, “Fast X Part 2” is scheduled to hit theaters in 2025, though an exact release date is still pending.
Explaining the decision to split the film, Vin Diesel mentioned during a press event for “F9,” “Part of the reason why Fast 10 has to be broken into two different movies is because there’s so much ground to cover. There are so many places and so many locations in the world that we have to visit.” So, whether you call them “Fast X” and “Fast XI” or “Fast & Furious 10.1” and “10.2,” the saga is far from over.
When Is Fast X’s Release Date?
The first part of “Fast X” is currently set to premiere on May 19, 2023. Given the success of “F9” during the pandemic, it’s highly likely that “Fast X” will grace the big screen unless unforeseen circumstances intervene.
Originally scheduled for April 2021, “Fast X” faced delays due to various setbacks with “F9.” It was subsequently slated for release on April 7, 2023, but has experienced further delays.
Watch the Fast X Trailers
The official trailer for “Fast X” debuted on February 10, 2023, just ahead of Super Bowl LVII. Set to a remixed version of The Notorious B.I.G’s “Notorious Thugs,” the nearly four-minute trailer introduces audiences to new characters, including Jason Momoa’s villainous Dante, who happens to be the son of Hernan Reyes, the drug kingpin from “Fast Five.” The trailer also introduces Academy Award Winner Rita Moreno as Dom and Mia’s Abuelita Toretto and Academy Award Winner Brie Larson as Tess, who appears to be a new addition to Dom’s family. Furthermore, it reveals that John Cena’s Jakob Toretto, the previous film’s main villain, will now be working alongside his formerly estranged brother Dom.
A subsequent trailer reveals even more excitement, as Dante takes center stage in a showdown against Dom’s family, requiring unusual allies to thwart his plans.
Additional featurettes have showcased characters such as Mia Toretto, Dominic Toretto embracing fatherhood, and Jason Momoa’s Dante. Footage from the film also provides insight into how Han survived his presumed death. A new trailer dropped on May 3, 2023, further stoking anticipation.
