Fasten your seatbelts, Fast & Furious fans. The franchise is jumping to the small screen. Vin Diesel spilled the beans at the NBC Universal upfront. Peacock's set to host not one, but four shows in the Fast & Furious universe.
Fans are already revving up for Fast Forever, the 11th movie, due in 2028. Details are thin, but Diesel's on board as executive producer with Sam Vincent. Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman, who worked on Shades of Blue, are handling the scripts.

Franchise Roots
The Fast & Furious saga started in 2001 with Diesel at the helm. It's a global hit, known for wild action and a diverse cast. The latest movie, Fast X, hit screens in 2023.
What's Still Unclear
