Fast and Furious saga ending planned

Fast and Furious franchise, will soon come to an end. Vin Diesel, who made a mark as the street racer patriarch in the Fast and Furious movies, said in an interview that the saga will conclude after two more films, following the upcoming ninth instalment, F9, released in theatres June 25.

The final two films could potentially be released in 2023 and 2024.

“Every story deserves its own ending,” said Diesel during a press junket for F9 when asked about the franchise’s future. Director Justin Lin said the idea of finishing the saga came during a conversation with Diesel, who has played the leading role in eight Fast and Furious films.

“Nine is kind of the first film of the final chapter,” the director said. “We’re kind of reconfiguring everything, so that the next two movies should wrap up this amazing journey for these characters.”
