It's almost the end for
Fast & Furious
.
The Universal Pictures franchise, which has featured big muscles, big cars, and big stunts for almost 20 years, will only be entitled to two more films before the closing clap.
This is in any case what announces
Variety
, which specifies that the director of the 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 9th films of the franchise, Justin Lin, will be back behind the camera for the last two opus.
Fast and Furious 9
, whose official title is
F9
, should already be released worldwide but the coronavirus pandemic has forced the studio to postpone the new adventures of Dominic Toretto / Vin Diesel and his band / family until May 31st. .
It's only a good bye
However, Universal Pictures is not giving up the financial windfall represented by a franchise that is still so popular with the public (5.8 billion box office receipts anyway, which makes it the tenth most profitable franchise in history. of the cinema, just behind
The Lord of the Rings
).
Variety
says the studio will continue to operate the
F&F
“brand”
with spin-offs, based on the - many - characters the band has encountered during their explosive adventures.
The first attempt - successful, at least in terms of revenue - with The Rock and Jason Statham, titled
Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw
, seems to have given the producers some ideas.
The latter did not hesitate to multiply the appearances of stars in the last installments of the franchise, to give them a leading role following the success encountered.
