Production[edit source]
In November 2015, Vin Diesel announced in an interview with Variety that potential spin-offs for The Fast and the Furious series were in the early stages of development.[1] A spin-off film centered around characters Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw was announced in October 2017 by Universal Pictures and set a release date of July 26, 2019 with Chris Morganreturning to write the script.[2] Variety reported that Shane Black was being considered to direct the film.[3] The announcement of the spin-off provoked a response on Instagram by Tyrese Gibson, criticizing Johnson for causing the ninth Fast & Furious film to be delayed for another year.[4] In February 2018, Deadpool 2 director David Leitch entered talks to direct the film.[5] In April 2018, Leitch was confirmed as the director for the film and added David Scheunemann as a production designer.[6][7]
In July 2018, Vanessa Kirby was cast in the film to play an MI6 agent and Shaw's sister, along with Idris Elba to play the main villain role in the film.[8][9] In October 2018, Eddie Marsan joined the cast of the film.[10] In November 2018, Eiza Gonzalez joined the cast of the film.[11]
