Fast X (also known as Fast & Furious 10) is an upcoming American action film directed by Louis Leterrier and written by Justin Lin and Dan Mazeau. It is the sequel to F9 (2021), serving as the tenth main installment, and the eleventh full-length film in the Fast & Furious franchise. The film stars Vin Diesel as Dominic Toretto, alongside an ensemble cast that includes Jason Statham, Michelle Rodriguez, Jason Momoa, John Cena, Brie Larson, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, Scott Eastwood, Michael Rooker, Daniela Melchior, Alan Ritchson, Helen Mirren, Cardi B, Rita Moreno, and Charlize Theron. In the film, Toretto and his crew must seek help in their fight against Cipher (Theron) when she recruits Dante (Momoa), a mysterious new adversary.

With the tenth film planned since 2014, and a two-part finale planned since October 2020, Lin was confirmed to return to direct with the main cast attached; it is the second film in the franchise not to feature Dwayne Johnson since his introduction in Fast Five (2011). The film's official title was revealed when principal photography began in April 2022. Lin left as director later that month, citing creative differences, though he retained writing and producing credits. Leterrier was then hired as his replacement a week later. Longtime franchise composer Brian Tyler returned to score the film. With an estimated production budget of $340 million, it is the fifth-most expensive film ever. Filming lasted until that August, taking place in London, Rome, Turin, Lisbon, and Los Angeles.

Fast X is scheduled to be released in the United States on May 19, 2023, by Universal Pictures, while its sequel is planned to be released in February 2024.

Production

Development

In November 2014, Universal Pictures chairwoman Donna Langley said there would be at least three more films in the franchise after Furious 7 (2015).[20] In April 2017, producer Neal H. Moritz stated that the tenth entry would serve as the finale for the franchise with Chris Morgan attached as screenwriter.[21] In October 2017, Justin Lin entered negotiations to direct the ninth and tenth installments, after directing four films in the series.[22] In February 2020, Vin Diesel hinted the film could be split in two,[23] which he confirmed in an April 2021 press conference, stating "there's so much ground to cover and so many places in so many locations that we have to visit" as the rationale behind the decision for a two-part finale.[24] Prior to production, Diesel announced filming would take place in Italy, stating, "I was asked, ‘Would there ever be a Fast where you could film in Italy?’, and I [promised] we would".[25]

By April 2022, a new screenplay draft was written by Lin and Dan Mazeau.[26] On June 5, 2022, Tyrese Gibson announced Fast X would see the franchise "going back to its roots", with reports indicating this to be a return to street racing elements of previous entries,[27] although shared details the film would also continue to explore the history of the Toretto family in a "similar" vein to F9.[28] Gibson also expressed a desire for the franchise to film in South Africa, stating, "me and Luda always had this idea [that] it’s time for us to head to South Africa. It needs real estate in this franchise [because] it [has] a beautiful skyline with ocean. It's the Fast and Furious package".[29] During an August 2022 interview with ComicBook, Nathalie Emmanuel said "the stakes are higher on a more personal level in this [film]", indicating a more grounded approach compared to previous installments.[30] In an interview with Collider, Universal Pictures producer Kelly McCormick stated the impact of COVID-19 and the production schedules of "interfering projects" (like Fast X and its sequel) caused delays in developing the sequel to Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw (2019).[31] Filming in Turin required the Film Commission Torino Piemonte, local authorities, and city councillors to conduct a five month planning schedule from September 2021 and January 2022, collaborating with the Departments of Culture to co-ordinate the city's major events, roads and transport, public, and security around filming requirements. Such planning included managing the overflight of drones and limitations on circulation made necessary for the management and safety of the set.[32]

Fast X is the first film in the series to feature electric cars, with leaked set photos featuring the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Banshee Concept and the gull-winged DeLorean Alpha5. Other vehicles set to feature include the 2022 TorRed Dodge Charger R/T and the 1970 Charger R/T, a series staple.[33] On June 27, 2022, it was reported Fast X would include the fan favorite orange and black Veilside Mazda RX-7 FD Fortune, which first featured in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006).[34]

Casting

In June 2021, Diesel revealed that Cardi B would reprise her role as Leysa in the tenth film, after the character debuted in F9 (2021).[14] Later that month, Diesel announced the film would be split in a two-part culmination to the franchise, with principal photography slated to begin in January 2022 and take place back-to-back.[35][36] In December 2021, Dwayne Johnson ruled out returning for Fast X, and labelled an Instagram post by Diesel asking for his return as "manipulation",[37] with publications indicating he was referring to his reported feud with Diesel stemming from Diesel's role as an executive producer on The Fate of the Furious (2017).[38][39] In early 2022, Jason Momoa was cast as Dante, the villain,[5] while Daniela Melchior, Brie Larson, and Alan Ritchson joined the cast by that April.[17][9][18] In May, Rita Moreno was cast as the grandmother of Dom, Jakob, and Mia.[15]

On December 23, 2022, it was revealed that Gal Gadot, who portrayed Gisele Yashar in three previous installments, filmed a scene for Fast X; according to social media reports, she appeared in one of two versions of the film screened three days prior, with further details about the nature of her return undisclosed.[40] Gadot's potential return was met with mixed reception by fans and critics; some criticized the franchise's history of reviving dead characters to capitalize on star power, labelling it "ineffective" fan service which negatively impacts the previous installments and the story of the franchise.[41][42][43] Others were positive about Gadot's potential return, citing her portrayal of one of the franchise's most popular characters.[44]

Filming

Principal photography began on April 21, 2022, with the film's title being revealed and Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, and Charlize Theron confirmed to reprise their roles.[3][11] According to Diesel, an earlier draft excluded Brewster's character, which he overturned. The next day, Michael Rooker was confirmed to reprise his role as Buddy from F9.[12] Fast X's production budget was initially reported to be $300 million in May 2022, which was revised to $340 million that November. Salary of the film's cast earned over $100 million,[45] including $20 million for Diesel.[46] Other costs for the rising budget (which factors in tax-incentive offsets) included increases in production costs caused by global inflation and charges for pandemic testing requirements mandated by COVID-19 safety protocols.[47] According to unnamed sources reporting to Radar, Diesel reportedly "stressed" over the increased budget and the creative decisions in Fast X; sources wrote Diesel is considered by Universal as "simultaneously the greatest star [they've] had and their biggest headache" and that "[Diesel] doesn't let anybody forget [how] the Fast & Furious franchise is important to the whole [film] industry".[48]

A week after filming commenced, Lin exited the film as director due to "creative differences", leaving primary production stalled. However, Lin will remain on board as a producer.[49] Later reports alleged that Lin clashed on set with Diesel, who purportedly arrived out of shape, was often late, and did not remember his lines.[50] Lin was also upset with rewrites to his screenplay, as well as changing filming locations and one of the film's villains having yet to be cast;[45] a disagreement with Diesel reportedly escalated to the point it caused Lin to shout, "This movie is not worth my mental health."[51] Second unit production remained ongoing in the United Kingdom while the studio sought for a replacement director.[52] Universal Pictures reportedly spent $1 million a day to pause production.[53] Former Fast & Furious directors F. Gary Gray and David Leitch, who previously directed The Fate of the Furious and Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw respectively, were considered by the studio to replace Lin, however neither were likely to step in due to their commitments with Lift and The Fall Guy (2024), respectively.[54][55] Furious 7 director James Wan, who was once considered to direct The Fate of the Furious but declined due to his straining experience on Furious 7, was also considered a "viable option" but was tied with commitments to Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom (2023).[55][56] Variety reported hiring an "A-list" director was not probable without drastic changes to the screenplay and Universal would likely turn to a second unit director "well-versed" in big-budget action films.[55] On May 2, 2022, Louis Leterrier was announced as Lin's replacement.[57] Leterrier already had an established relationship with the studio, having previously directed The Incredible Hulk (2008), and began filming in London after scheduling and contractual considerations were confirmed.[58][59] Production in London concluded in mid-August, with scenes filmed at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden.[60]

Filming took place in Rome for two weeks in mid-May,[61] and one week in mid-July,[62] with scenes shot at the Via Cristoforo Colombo, Lungotevere, Via dei Fori Imperiali, Ponte Umberto I, Ponte Vittorio Emanuele II, and the area around the Spanish Steps and the Castel Sant'Angelo.[63] Filming then took place in Turin between May 24 and June 6, with action sequences filmed at the Piazza Crimea and Corso Fiume, Murazzi del Po, Via Roma, and the Piazza IV Marzo.[64] Momoa began shooting his scenes on May 16.[61] Like previous installments, Diesel supervised writing and design of the film's action sequences; according to unnamed sources to The Hollywood Reporter, Diesel's creative control and frequent last-minute changes reflect "a process [which] is like a mosaic that doesn’t stop moving", labelling him "demanding" and a perfectionist.[51] On June 6, it was reported a stuntman was injured in an accident after being hit by part of a car after an explosion.[65] On July 22, in an interview with Deadline Hollywood while at San Diego Comic-Con, Rodriguez announced she had completed filming her scenes and said "only four [or] five weeks [are] left" in production.[66] Filming in Angelino Heights (the location of the Toretto house) faced protest from some local residents after production gave notice of the filming of a sequence which would involve "simulated emergency services activity, aerial photography, wetting down of street and atmospheric smoke". According to those residents, the protest was to raise awareness for road safety education, claiming the franchise caused their neighborhood to become a hot spot for fans to engage in street racing and other dangerous activity.[67] Filming managed to occur following the protest on August 26,[68] while other portions were filmed in Portugal, such as in Lisbon, Viseu, and Vila Real. In an interview with Lusa News Agency, Conceição Azevedo, the mayor of Viseu, announced filming would take place on IP5, a highway in the Vouzela municipality.[69] Ritchson finished filming his scenes by August 16,[70] and hinted at flying cars in the film, stating "we're going to take it to the sky".[71]

During filming, Sofia Noronha, a producer for Sagesse Productions (the company in charge of overseeing production of Fast X in Portugal) said a "brutal economic investment" will be made in the country by the film. Highlighting the weather, affordability through tax breaks, and flexibility of the production, Noronha argued "investments [from film] made in the country is almost double that tax incentive. The [producing] country always benefits".[69] This was echoed during filming in Turin, with it reported the two-week schedule generated €3.8 million for the local economy, coming mainly from expenses related to location rent, hospitality, technical staff and local workforce employment, security and sanitation, and storage and unloading. It was also reported the film regularly brought troupes of close to 400 people (5 times above average for comparable films) and often collaborated with hundreds of local professionals on the research of locations and finalization of the working filming plan.[64] In a statement, Beatrice Borgia, President of Film Commission Torino Piemonte, said "Fast X is a confirmation of the key role Turin and Piedmont has gained in filmmaking. [We have] proved to have all what is needed to host complex productions: skilled professionals, supportive institutions, and amazing locations".[64]

Post-production

Peter Chiang, DNEG, and Industrial Light & Magic return as the visual effects vendors for the production, after doing so for F9 (2021). Composer Brian Tyler also returned. In a July 2022 interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Michelle Rodriguez praised the addition of Leterrier and his predominantly French-speaking creative team, labelling it "the French takeover, dude". She stated Leterrier "came with all this energy of love [from] a real fan of [the] franchise who really wants to take it places that it hasn’t gone before. It reminds you [how] beautiful and magical [filmmaking] is".[72] Several aerial shots were filmed with first-person view (FPV) drones with an attached RED Komodo camera piloted by Johnny Schaer, similar to the filming technique used for the action sequences in Michael Bay's Ambulance (2022). Schaer previously supervised the drone-led filming in Rawson Marshall Thurber's Red Notice (2021).[73]

Marketing

Parts of Fast X previewed at CineEurope in Barcelona in June 2022, including a first look at Jason Momoa and Brie Larson. Speaking of the film, Universal Pictures International President of Distribution Veronika Kwan Vandenberg stated the studio's drive was to continue to "cater to the diverse tastes" expected from the franchise.[74] At the 2022 Grio Awards, Tyrese Gibson stated he watched the completed film on October 20, 2022, describing it as "crazy" with "just too much magic", and announced that an extended version of the film's trailer would first premiere at Super Bowl LVII on February 12, 2023.[75] This was seemingly confirmed in a December 2022 social media post by Vin Diesel, who wrote the trailer was "less than two months away";[76] he then made it official in a January 2023 social media post.[77]

Release

Fast X is scheduled to be released on May 19, 2023, in the United States.[78] In February 2016, Diesel announced initial release dates for the ninth and tenth films, with the tenth film initially set to be released on April 2, 2021.[79] After F9 was delayed to the tenth film's release date due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tenth film's release date was delayed indefinitely.[80] In June 2021, Diesel announced a targeted release date of February 2023.[35] That August, the film was officially announced to be released on April 7, 2023. In December, the film was pushed back to the May 2023 date.[78]

Reception

Box office

Writing for TheWrap, Jeremy Fuster estimated Fast X may earn less at the global box office than its immediate predecessors, citing the film's sudden increased overall budget (at 70% larger than F9) and the expected large marketing budget.[81]

Sequel

A sequel, which is planned to serve as the eleventh and final main installment, is scheduled to be released in February 2024.[82]
