Universal’s Fast & Furious 9 officially wraps production

Director Justin Lin took to Twitter to reveal the production has officially wrapped on Universal Pictures’ forthcoming action sequel Fast & Furious 9 which will be the studio’s ninth and latest installment to The Fast and the Furious blockbuster franchise. Starring Vin Diesel and John Cena, the film is slated to hit the theaters on May 22, 2020.

It’s an official #F9 Wrap! This is by far the most ambitious film of the series and I am forever grateful to our amazing crew from London, Edinburgh, Tbilisi (Georgia), Phuket & Krabi (Thailand), and Los Angeles. pic.twitter.com/ggFGxwHuz7 — Justin Lin (@justinlin) November 11, 2019

Fast & Furious 9 was originally set to hit theaters on April 19 but was pushed back a year to make room for the first spin-off in the series, Hobbs & Shaw, which had premiered last August. As a result, Fast & Furious 9 will be getting a May 2020 release with Justin Lin returning to directing in the franchise, after helming Fast & Furious parts 3 through 6. Dan Casey will pen the screenplay based on Lin’s story alongside series mastermind Chris Morgan..
