Universal’s second most successful franchise will be 10-films long. A long running tradition for the series, the news comes courtesy of star Vin Diesel’s Instagram account, where last night he revealed the release dates for the next three Fast & Furious films. Previously announced, Fast 8 drops April 14, 2017. Fast & Furious 9 will follow it on April 19,2019, with Fast & Furious 10 coming April 2, 2021.
Diesel had said that Fast 8 was intended to form the first installment of a trilogy that will bring the series to a conclusion after 10 films. That plan, he says, was in part meant to honor the memory of Paul Walker.
Straight Outta Compton director F. Gary Gray is directing the next installment of the series, Fast 8, with the full cast including Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jason Statham expected to return. Neil Moritz is producing with Diesel.
