Vin Diesel Announces “Fast Forever” Will Hit Theaters in March 2028

Universal has set a March 17, 2028 theatrical release for the next installment in the Fast & Furious franchise, now officially titled Fast Forever.

Vin Diesel announced the title and date, confirming that Louis Leterrier will return to direct following his work on 2023’s Fast X. Diesel is once again expected to reprise his role as Dominic Toretto, though plot details and additional casting have not yet been revealed.

Story specifics remain under wraps, particularly in the wake of Fast X’s cliffhanger ending, which left the fates of several major characters unresolved. The sequel was originally eyed for a quicker turnaround, with hopes of a 2025 release, but the timeline ultimately shifted.

Diesel has offered limited teases in recent years, including remarks made at last year’s FuelFest suggesting the next chapter would pivot back toward the franchise’s roots, emphasizing car culture and street racing.

Fast Forever is positioned as the 11th mainline entry in the long-running saga and the final chapter in the core Fast & Furious storyline. Including the 2019 spinoff Hobbs & Shaw, it marks the 12th feature set within the franchise.

Since launching in 2001, the Fast & Furious films have grossed more than $7 billion at the global box office, cementing the series as one of Universal’s most lucrative and enduring properties.
