per deadline:

EXCLUSIVE: Universal is huddling on a spinoff that will focus on the characters originated by Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham and most recently seen in The Fate Of The Furious, sources said.

The franchise architects have said they might broaden the universe with spinoffs, and source said this is the one they are pursuing. This is in early stages, but they’ve met on the concept, which sources said will be scripted by Chris Morgan, the chief writer of the series that is hitting new heights with the eighth installment. The idea is for Johnson’s US Diplomatic Security Agent Luke Hobbs to form an unlikely alliance with Statham’s Decker Shaw, for a movie that could conceivably be made while they are figuring the next Fast film

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

More Statham the better, Rock is just corny to me

 

[SpaceWolf]

Trying to split Dwayne and Vin up, eh producers?

 

[DMczaf]

Rock worked Hollywood into a shoot and worked that into work

Greatest carnie of all time

 

[Gin-Shiio]

 

[MUnited83]

Rock and Statham were the best parts of F8 so I welcome this.

Still need me some Crank 3 tho

 

[AgentChris]

Didn't Statham kill Han? fuck him.

 

[Betty]

He killed Han though.

 

[norm9]

If this means the Toretto gang can't have access to see it all know it all technology in the next movie, I'm cool with it.

 

[Slayven]

Is this way Vin was mad at the Rock?

 

[BronsonLee]

THEY KNOW
THEY KNOW WHAT WE WANT

 

[Alx]

I'd definitely watch that. Their scenes were the best parts of FF8 (and 7)

 

[UFO]

Cool

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Aim for the bushes?

 

[SpaceWolf]

Hobbs should team up with Kylo Ren next.

 

[MikeHattsu]

They going to space?

 

[shadow_shogun]

Didn't Statham kill Han? fuck him.

He killed Han though.

Han ain't dead, this is F&F we're talking about. Watch as he come back in this spinoff.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

Damn, that Vin/Dwayne beef must be worst than we thought...

 

[mgarnica89]

This is how you do it. 2 films.

The Fast : starring Vin and his crew.


The Furious : starring Rock and Statham.

 

[ViciousDS]

Aim for the bushes?

is it sad that Jackson and Dwayne were the best part of some other guys and when that scene happened.....I refused to watch the rest of the movie

 

[Jarmel]

Day 1

Sooner they drop Vin, the better.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

They going to space?

A quarter light year at a time.

 

[BronsonLee]

This is how you do it. 2 films.

The Fast : starring Vin and his crew.


The Furious : starring Rock and Statham.

It's like Pokemon Blue and Pokemon Red

 

[SuperStiltzkin]

Vin Diesel sweating.

 

[Laieon]

THEY KNOW
THEY KNOW WHAT WE WANT

I want Han though.

I also think Hobbs is one of the most boring characters, the only ones more boring then his character is Vin Diesel and Letty.

I'd rather have a Tej and Roman spin off.

 

[mreddie]

YES.

 

[illmatic22]

Hold that L Vin

 

[Jest Chillin]

If this means the Toretto gang can't have access to see it all know it all technology in the next movie, I'm cool with it.

Pfft. They'll just introduce a new character from the same authority and give some "Hobbs is on another assignment" excuse for it.

 

[jmood88]

Now I can skip Vin Diesel mumbling his way through scenes and get the movies I really want to see.

 

[MikeHattsu]

Han ain't dead, this is F&F we're talking about. Watch as he come back in this spinoff.

Or... Maybe he'll have his own spinoff next.

 

[Killthee]

So Hobbs vs Toretto again for F10/Hobbs 3?

 

[Bruce Springsteen]

Hold that L Vin

You don't think Vin is going to make money off this? He's a producer

 

[RS4-]

all I wanted out of f8.

 

[NeonBlack]

But family...

 

[krae_man]

Han ain't dead, this is F&F we're talking about. Watch as he come back in this spinoff.

I'd like to see them write their way into bringing Vince back.

 

[zeemumu]

The Furious Transporter

 

[SteveO409]

is Han a big meme? Why do people want him so bad lol

 

[Toothless]

Good. These two were the only excellent parts of F8, so I'm probs more down for a spin-off than Fast 9 at the moment.

 

[jmood88]

More Statham the better, Rock is just corny to me

The Rock is definitely corny as hell (and sometimes talks like a white guy doing an impression of how he thinks black people speak), but he's somehow able to still seem cool at the same time to me. I don't know how, but he can pull it off.

 

[xfactor99]

When the family gets a divorce.

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

Cool... More cars please...

 

[Jest Chillin]

is Han a big meme? Why do people want him so bad lol

Because he's the best character from Tokyo Drift and a better character than half the supporting cast of the main "family."

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Is there even enough money in the world for two F&F series?
Still haven't seen a single one of these but I'll catch up someday.

 

[ZeoVGM]

BRING HAN BACK IN THIS.

 

[Lifeline]

This is gonna be great.

I'm hyped.

Any guesses for the title?

The Cop and The Criminal
Furiousmon: Black and White

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Rock and Statham were the best parts of F8 so I welcome this.

Still need me some Crank 3 tho

Make Crank or Transporter apart of the Fast and Furious cinematic universe

 

[Nielm]

They said they'd stop at Fast And Furious 10..but they didn't say they wouldn't make spin-offs!

 

[fr0st]

is it sad that Jackson and Dwayne were the best part of some other guys and when that scene happened.....I refused to watch the rest of the movie

The movie was pretty funny you should finish it

 

[norm9]

is Han a big meme? Why do people want him so bad lol

In a series about cool people and cool cars, he was one of the coolest.

 

[Dynomutt]

Knew it! They were way too good in the prison scene.

What's with the Vin hate? Ya'll haters greener then they money he his counting lol!

Rock and him squashed the beef and this is a spin off. Still have two mainline films to go. They have not gone to space yet and Han is still in a bio-genesis chamber completing the regeneration process. We still have a ways to go.
