Vin Diesel Teases Uncertain Future for Fast & Furious Franchise

Conflicting studio demands and creative tensions delay the next installment, with a tentative release date set for 2026.

Vin Diesel revealed that Universal Studios is pushing for Fast X: Part 2 to release by March 2026, though the timeline remains uncertain.
The actor highlighted differing studio opinions, with Comcast advocating for a two-film finale to conclude the franchise.
Diesel expressed a desire to return the series to its roots with real street racing, practical stunts, and a focus on character relationships.
Dwayne Johnson's character, Hobbs, is expected to play a key role in resolving long-standing tensions with Diesel's Dominic Toretto, though no official confirmation has been made.
Fast X director Louis Leterrier is set to return, with Christina Hodson and Oren Uziel writing the script, but production progress and final plans remain unclear.
