Vin Diesel Makes A Promise to Co-Star Jordana Brewster About New Film Production

On January 23, Vin Diesel shared a photo of him embracing co-star Jordana Brewster. Diesel wrote that Brewster recently asked for the remaining production of Fast X: Part 2 to take place in Los Angeles to help the city recover from the recent wildfires. 

“Last week, during the fires that displaced LA… my sister Jordana reached out to me and said… Please have Universal film the rest of Fast X Part 2 in LA,” Diesel wrote in the caption of his post. “Los Angeles needs it now more than ever… Los Angeles is where Fast and Furious started filming 25 years ago… and now Fast will finally return home. All love…”

Brewster left a comment on Diesel’s post that read “Our Home .” 

What Does This Mean For the Rest of the Fast & Furious Franchise? 

The Fast and Furious franchise has been shot in multiple locations throughout Los Angeles and Southern California. Fast X: Part 2 appears to be the franchise’s final installment, and Diesel has shared footage and photos from the film set. In late November 2024, Diesel shared a photo with co-star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and mentioned some interesting details about the film’s production.

Diesel wrote that “I got universal in one ear saying we need FastX2 by March 2026! I have Comcast in the other ear saying we need two movies to be the Finale! Then the writer on Fast Five sent me this image and said we need to see DOM and HOBBS resolve their differences.”

Diesel is, of course, referencing the famous on-screen and real-life feud between himself and Johnson, which began after the production of the Fast Five and continued until Fast X (2023) where, Johnson’s character, Luke Hobbs, made a surprise appearance during the post credit scene. 

The two actors did bury the hatchet after Diesel posted a photo whose caption read, “All love… Always…” Diesel also gave a shout out to Johnson during the Golden Globes awards on January 5, when he said “Hey, Dwayne” which made Johnson awkwardly smile. 

“I just want to get back to real street racing, practical stunts… and a reunion of that beautiful brotherhood. Happy Thanksgiving…” the end of Diesel’s post read. 

Brewster reacted to the awkward moment during an interview with Entertainment Tonight, where she seemingly confirmed that Johnson will appear in Fast X: Part 2. 

“When we keep talking about family, Fast is about family. Families are also dysfunctional, and we’ve got drama,” Brewster continued, seemingly referring to Diesel and Johnson’s feud. “I think the franchise echoes that.”

Brewster also teased what fans can expect from Fast X: Part 2.

“Vin’s so invested in the franchise and so creative that things are always bubbling up. And then we’ll be on text chains,” Brewster stated. “It’s wonderful to see the beginning versus what ends up there.”

Even though a release date has yet to be confirmed, fans can expect the franchise’s final installment to be released sometime in 2026.
