Justin Lin (Fast Five) director and Chris Morgan (Furious Seven onward) writer. We are returning for another instalment, after their successful collaboration; with Fate of The Furious last year. It’s been hinted; that Dom might just be playing an important role; in the film again, but it wouldn’t make sense; if her own spinoff; was to come out first.

The plotline for Fast & Furious 9

There’s no official word; on the plot yet. But it is speculated that the film will revolve around Dom Toretto (played by Michelle Rodriguez) in a female-centric spinoff following her exploits as she escapes from prison with help from Sean Boswell (played by Lucas Black). Unfortunately, there are also rumours of an all-female cast which means that none of their male counterparts would be along for the ride – including Brian O’Conner! The release date is currently unknown due to production being halted last year after Vin Diesel’s feud with Dwayne Johnson escalated. It has been said, though, that Justin Lin’s new Fast & Furious might just be coming out first.

What is all the talk about a female-centric spinoff?

Fans of the franchise have been calling for an all-female spinoff because there are no major female characters in the series. There has also been a lot of speculation about how this would work and who could potentially star in it, with some even suggesting that Charlize Theron should be cast as one of the leads! The director’s recent interview made fans really excited when he hinted towards these plans. He confirmed its existence but didn’t provide any information on casting or plotline just yet.

What do we know so far?

The film will be based on Tokyo Drift (2006) which is set in Japan. It was later revealed that most of the films take place outside America, too, meaning that more locations and actors will be needed for the spinoff.

Will Fast & Furious be worth watching?

Yes! Because we know very little about this film, it’s difficult to judge. However, there are many talented people involved in it, so I would not be surprised if it turned out great.

Are there any plot spoilers or spin-off news yet?

No, not yet!

Why do you think Charlize Theron is a good choice for an actress who could play Domino?

Charlize Theron has been on our screens since she was 16 years old, and her acting chops have only improved with time. She will undoubtedly bring something new to the franchise as well as being able to connect with audiences given her age and experience.

What’s your opinion on other potential female stars for the role?

I think Nathalie Emmanuel would be a good choice and is definitely someone who could bring something new to the Fast & Furious franchise. She has experience with action-heavy roles, as she played Missandei in Game of Thrones. I also like Naomi Harris because she can play any type of character given her range from movies such as The Mummy or Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle!
