From Deadline
Vin Diesel surprised a crowd on Saturday at FuelFest in Southern California, saying that the final film in the Fast & Furious franchise will hit theaters in April 2027.
Diesel, who has starred in all but one installment since 2001’s original, broke more news during his remarks onstage, confirming the film will be set in Los Angeles and that it will reunite Diesel’s Dominic Toretto character with Brian O’Conner, the character played by Paul Walker.
Walker starred with Diesel in the original and appeared in five installments before he was killed in a car crash in November 2013 at age 40.
There are currently no major films on the April 2027 release-date calendar. Notably, the most successful film in the franchise, 2015’s Furious 7, was the only pic in the franchise to open in that month; it was the biggest opening frame for any F&F film with $147.2 million, on its way to a global gross of more than $1.5 billion.
Vin Diesel has confirmed that 'FAST AND FURIOUS X PART 2' will arrive in April 2027, and Brian will be in the film.
