Final yr’s Fast X got here and went with a extra muted fanfare than we usually get type the long-running franchise. Within the months since its launch, Common’s been comparatively mum on the sequence’ subsequent installment, Fast XI, however main man Vin Diesel is reaffirming that the movie can be a definitive finish for the sequence—and presumably give him a cause to bow out altogether.
On Friday, he posted on Instagram a couple of assembly he’d had with the Quick writers and groups, whereby he actually underlined that Quick XI will shut the door on the sequence. “To say the thrill for our finale was extremely highly effective is an understatement,” he wrote. “This grand finale is not only an ending; it’s a celebration of the unbelievable household we’ve constructed collectively. Hope to make you proud!”
Diesel’s submit serves as the primary actual standing replace on the sequence after he’d been sued final December by an ex-assistant for sexual battery throughout Quick 5’s manufacturing. As a result of he’salso been a producer on the movies since Quick 4, it’s been a thriller as to how that swimsuit would have an effect on the franchise. On the time, he’d denied the allegations, however he’s largely stayed out of the highlight—as famous by the Hollywood Reporter, final week’s American Cinematheque Awards marked his first public look for the reason that swimsuit in December.
At time of writing, Dwayne Johnson remains to be meant to headline one other spinoff centered on his character Luke Hobbs, and it’s seemingly Common will finally resurrect all the sequence after a couple of years. Quick XI, in the meantime, remains to be on scheduled to launch on April 4, 2025, with the first Quick X solid all at the moment set to return.
