From The Hollywood Reporter
Just because Universal pushed its next Fast and the Furious chapter back a year doesn’t mean the studio is sitting idle.
In fact, it’s just switching gears to focus on the much-buzzed-about Fast & Furious spinoff that is intended to be a starring vehicle for Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham.
With Fast 9 moved back to 2020, Universal is now officially putting the project on the calendar, dating it for a July 26, 2019, opening.
