People often say, “The sky’s the limit.” Well, since F9 sent Tej and Roman into space, even that isn’t true anymore for the Fast & Furious series. The movie series used to be about racers and fast cars, but now it’s a global action franchise. Over the course of the last nine movies, Fast & Furious has come a long way from its start as a street racing show. Now, this crazy ride is almost over.

Fast & Furious 10, which will be called Fast X, will be the last movie in the series. It will be the end of Dominic Torreto’s adventures, played by Vin Diesel. As the movie’s release date gets closer, we’re starting to understand what it’s about. So, here’s everything we know about Fast X so far, from release dates and trailers to the cast, details about filming, characters, and the movie’s plot.

Release Date of Fast 10

At first, Universal said Fast X would be released on April 7, 2023. (barring any delays, of course). But the date was changed to May 19, 2023, and that’s where the movie has stayed.

On April 20, 2022, it was confirmed that filming had started, and Diesel posted updates on Instagram regularly. The movie was shot in places like Italy and Portugal. The last scene was shot at the end of August 2022.

Cast: Who Will Star in Fast 10?

Fans have come to expect that the Fast & Furious movies will have a long list of well-known actors and actresses in them. Fast X looks like it will live up to the reputation of the other movies in the series. It will feature both old and new characters.

Here are all of the confirmed names for Fast X so far.

Official Synopsis of Fast 10

Universal’s official synopsis reads as follows:

The end of the road begins. Fast X, the tenth film in the Fast & Furious Saga, launches the final chapters of one of cinema’s most storied and popular global franchises, now in its third decade and still going strong with the same core cast and characters as when it began. Over many missions and against impossible odds, Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his family have outsmarted, out-nerved and outdriven every foe in their path. Now, they confront the most lethal opponent they’ve ever faced: A terrifying threat emerging from the shadows of the past who’s fueled by blood revenge, and who is determined to shatter this family and destroy everything—and everyone—that Dom loves, forever. In 2011’s Fast Five, Dom and his crew took out nefarious Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes and decapitated his empire on a bridge in Rio De Janeiro. What they didn’t know was that Reyes’ son, Dante (Aquaman’s Jason Momoa), witnessed it all and has spent the last 12 years masterminding a plan to make Dom pay the ultimate price. Dante’s plot will scatter Dom’s family from Los Angeles to the catacombs of Rome, from Brazil to London and from Portugal to Antarctica. New allies will be forged and old enemies will resurface. But everything changes when Dom discovers that his own 8-year-old son (Leo Abelo Perry, Black-ish) is the ultimate target of Dante’s vengeance.

Since this is the last story, Fast X could focus on the next generation of the crew, like Dom and Brian’s kids. Maybe the movie could end with a flash-forward scene showing how those kids grow up to be the next great racer agents, just like their parents. Jordana Brewster has also said that she would like to see that happen in the last movies.

If the story goes in that direction, it would be more like a passing of the torch. And if that’s the case, we can probably expect some emotional moments between the crew and their kids as they fight to keep the world safe for them. But that doesn’t answer the question of who is bad.

In the last scene of F9, Deckard Shaw ran into Han again and was surprised to see that he was still alive. It’s possible that Shaw and his family will turn against Dom’s crew again in the next movie. On the other hand, Cipher was still alive and on the run at the end of F9, so she could come back as the villain.

Who Directs The Fast 10 Movie?

The movie was supposed to be directed by Justin Lin, who also directed all of the Fast and Furious movies between The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and Fast & Furious 6, as well as F9. But the director has left the project since then, reportedly because he didn’t agree with Vin Diesel.

The latest news says that French director Louis Leterrier has taken over from Lin as Fast X’s director. Leterrier is known for movies like The Transporter, The Transporter 2, The Incredible Hulk, and Now You See Me.

Is There a Trailer for Fast X?

The official trailer for Fast X came out on February 10, 2023, before Super Bowl LVII. It was set to a remixed version of “Notorious Thugs” by The Notorious B.I.G., and it’s just as big, bombastic, and bloated as the franchise itself. The nearly 4-minute trailer shows several new characters, including Jason Momoa’s bad guy Dante, who is the son of Hernan Reyes, the drug kingpin Dom and his family fought in Fast Five.

The trailer also shows Academy Award-winning actress Rita Moreno as Dom and Mia’s grandmother, Abuelita Toretto, and Academy Award-winning actress Brie Larson as Tess, who is probably a new member of Dom’s family. The trailer also showed that John Cena’s Jakob Toretto, who was the main bad guy in the last movie, will now work with his brother Dom, who he had been fighting with. During Super Bowl LVII, a shorter version of the trailer was shown. You can watch that version below.

Is Dwayne Johnson Going to Appear in Fast & Furious 10?

No, Dwayne Johnson has said he will not be in any more of the main Fast sequels. This is because he has a long-running feud with franchise star Vin Diesel. During the making of The Fate of the Furious, the two had a fight, which has since been talked about in interviews and on social media.

On Instagram, Diesel asked Johnson to come back. “You have a very important role to play, so you must show up. Do not leave the franchise unattended. “No one else could play Hobbs,” he says. “I hope you step up to the challenge and make the most of your life.”

When Does Production on Fast X Begin?

In April 2022, the movie Fast X began to be made. The two parts of the final story were supposed to be shot right after each other, but plans changed when the eleventh film was delayed. London and Rome are said to be filming locations.

Final Words

Fast X is the last movie in the Fast & Furious series and will be the end of Dominic Torreto’s adventures, played by Vin Diesel. It will feature both old and new characters and will be released on May 19, 2023.
