As the most recent Fast and Furious film found Tej (Chris “Ludacris” Bridges) and Roman (Tyrese Gibson) heading into outer space in a souped-up Pontiac Fiero, it’s safe to say that the franchise has grown far beyond its street-racing roots.
It’s almost easy to forget that the firstFast and Furiousmovie found Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) going undercover in the local street racing scene to investigate a string of automobile hijackings. No gravity-defying stunts or global hijinks, and that’s somethingFast and Furiousfranchise produce Neal Moritz hopes they return to in future. While speaking onThe Town with Matthew Belloni(viaScreenRant), Moritz said he hopes the franchise goes smaller.
Honestly, I think going forward I’d like to actually go smaller. And I’d like to kind of start to go back to where we started. I think that’s an interesting way to go. I like to zig and then zag. I like to try and do something different and I think that’s what audiences demand these days.
The upcoming two-partFast and Furious 10will bring theFast Sagato a close, but it’s hard to imagine Universal Pictures leaving the franchise alone after that. We’ve got aon the way, and I’m sure we’re not too far off fromFast and Furious: The Next Generation. Justin Lin will be returning to direct the final two films of the Fast Saga from a script by Chris Morgan. Much of the original cast will be returning, including Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, and Sung Kang. Aquaman star Jason Momoa is also joining the cast as thevillain, something he’s rarely had the opportunity to do in his career.Fast and Furious 10will start shooting this spring inLondonfor aMay 19, 2023release. Do you think the Fast and Furious franchise should go smaller in future?
