Fast and Furious Spin-Offs at Risk: Potential Losses Mount as Vin Diesel’s Co-Star Contemplates Exit

The team behind the successful Fast and Furious movie series previously thought that it was coming to an end. But with the recent release of the latest installment and various upcoming spinoffs, itโ€™s clear that the franchise is far from over. Along with the recently announced Dwayne Johnson-led spinoff, fans are eagerly anticipating a female-led Fast and Furious film. However, according to some of Vin Dieselโ€™s co-stars, it appears that one of the original members of the franchise may not be involved in this project.

In the sixth installment of the Fast and Furious franchise, Michelle Rodriguez takes on a prominent role.

There has been little progress on the female-led Fast and Furious spin-off that was announced years ago. However, during the lead-up to Fast X, Vin Diesel confirmed that the movie is still in development.

Michelle Rodriguez may not star in the upcoming movie alongside Vin Diesel, as she previously stated that she is ready for the new generation to take the lead. While her statement suggests that she may not be a part of the women-led story, it doesnโ€™t necessarily mean that she is completely disconnecting from the franchise. Itโ€™s possible that she simply doesnโ€™t want to be at the forefront of the movie. There may be a spinoff with Letty, but she wonโ€™t be the sole focus. Itโ€™s unclear if Rodriguez, who is the highest-earning female star of the franchise, will appear in future movies or spinoffs. However, actresses like Jordana Brewster, Charlize Theron, and Gal Gadot, who have previously appeared in the franchise, could reprise their roles. As the project wonโ€™t start until the main storyline concludes, thereโ€™s a possibility of new female characters joining the fold before the spinoff begins.

A new movie scene from Fast X has been revealed, featuring Dwayne Johnson in a spinoff that will connect the events of Fast X, Part 2 and Fast 11. Fans speculate that Jason Momoa may make an appearance as Date. Although it is unclear who else will join the cast, Rodriguezโ€™s departure would undoubtedly impact the franchiseโ€™s success. Nonetheless, fans should respect her decision to leave if that is what she desires. For those wishing to catch up on the Fast and Furious franchise, the latest film is now available on Peacock.
