• Multiple outlets report the screenplay is not locked and development has slowed, casting doubt on previously floated timing such as an April 2027 window.
• The franchise underwent writer changes in 2024, with Zach Dean taking over from Christina Hodson and Oren Uziel, which sources note has complicated the story process.
• Cast availability remains a major obstacle, with Alan Ritchson citing the challenge of aligning schedules for A‑list stars including Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, and Momoa.
