In an exclusive report published by The Hollywood Reporter, it was revealed that Jason Momoa would be joining the “Fast and Furious” family. Momoa will be starring in the 10th installment of the blockbuster action series, which has a working title of “Fast & Furious 10.” Though his character has not been announced, reports state that he could be starring as a villain in the installment. Momoa will be joining a cast that already is said to consist of Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Sung Kang, Nathalie Emmanuel, and, according to People, Cardi B, who had a cameo in the ninth installment of the series, “F9.” Justin Lin will also be returning as a director. “Fast & Furious 10” will begin shooting this spring, and currently has a release date of May 19, 2023.
Previous cast member Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will not be returning to the “Fast and Furious” series after accusing Diesel of manipulating him to take on a role in the upcoming installment. Diesel made a public plea on Instagram for Johnson to come back to the “Fast and Furious” series, and Johnson did not appreciate the public call-out. “I was very surprised by Vin’s recent post,” Johnson told CNN in December. “This past June, when Vin and I actually connected not over social media, I told him directly — and privately — that I would not be returning to the franchise.”
