Vin Diesel Offers Update on The "Grand Finale" of The FAST AND FURIOUS Franchise
The Fast and Furious saga is coming to an end with one final film that franchise star Vin Diesel has started working on with the development team. We’re still a long way off, but he’s already looking to hype the “grand finale” promising fans that it will be epic. He recently shared the update on Instagram, saying:
"Just finished our end of the week Fast meeting with the writers and the whole team… to say the excitement for our finale was incredibly powerful is an understatement. Wow. So exciting…
"While everyone was heading into the weekend amped and excited, I thought of you all… reminded of the countless moments when your enthusiasm and passion became the driving force behind our creative journey. Your commitment to our saga has had a unique impact on its success and evolution… as my youngest daughter would say, it's profound.
"Thank you for being the backbone of this global saga that because of you, transcends the screen. This grand finale is not just an ending; it's a celebration of the incredible family we've built together. Hope to make you proud!"
While fans have come to accept the ridiculousness that this franchise has become, the last two films were especially bad. I’ve been a fan of this franchise from the beginning, but it’s lost its grip and has spun out of control. Maybe this final film will be able to course correct and win, instead of crash and burn.
Before that finale comes, though, Dwayne Johnson is returning to reprise his role as Luke Hobbs in a spinoff film that will take place between Fast X and the grand finale. That movie is being written by franchise writer Chris Morgan.
I really hope they manage to close out this franchise in a way that will make all the longtime fans happy.
