Star and producer of the Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs and Shaw which came out last year.
Aside from wide variety of the main story’s side characters. That film saw Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) team up to save the world while also grossing over $760 million worldwide. This brings the entirety of the franchise’s box office gross to around $6 billion. Those numbers not only justify the existence of F9 but also an 11th film and more spinoffs.
In an interview with MTV International last month, Diesel and company spoke about the F9 as well as future plans for the franchise. Fast & Furious 10 is set to be the last in The Fast Saga; this has many wondering where the franchise goes next. When asked about this, Diesel said, “I’ve created a female spinoff, and that script comes in next month. So we will see." It’s unclear who exactly the female-centric entry will feature.
Given the already strong cast of female characters from the main saga, including Charlie’s Angels type vibe with all the women.” If the script is strong, that may just be what we get.
The shelf-life of the Fast & Furious franchise feels virtually unparalleled, continuously triumphing at the box office for close to two decades. It makes sense for all those involved to want to capitalize on the brand and appeal to as many audiences as possible. For example, Netflix recently premiered Fast & Furious Spy Racers, a children’s animated television series. With a Hobbs & Shaw sequel being very much a possibility and a female-lead spinoff in the works, even more life could be breathed into the Fast & Furious universe—bad news for anyone hoping it would slow down.
