‘Fast and Furious’ series to end after 11th film

The Fast and Furious franchise will finally conclude after the 11th film in the series, reported The Indian Express.
According to Variety, film-maker Justin Lin will helm the final two instalments of the superhit action franchise that propelled actors

Vin Diesel and the late Paul Walker to global superstardom. He has directed The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast & Furious, Fast Five, Fast and Furious 6 and Fast 9.

Until now, there have been eight films in the series and the ninth - Fast 9 – is so far scheduled to hit theatres on April 2, 2021. It was earlier scheduled to release in May 2020 but much like many other blockbusters, was postponed due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Fast 9 brings Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Lucas Black, Helen Mirren, Charlize Theron and Sung Kang back on board. WWE superstar John Cena is the new entrant in the cast of the successful franchise. He plays Dominic’s brother and enemy Jakob.

The film will also reportedly see the cast go out into space as part of their latest mission. Needless to say, April couldn’t come any sooner!
