Vin Diesel has a message for Universal Pictures, urging the studio to provide fans with a release timeframe for the next installment in the Fast & Furious franchise.
In a new social media post, Diesel pleaded with the film studio to share with “the best fans in the world” when the next movie will be released.
“Universal… Please tell the best fans in the world, when the next movie is coming out. Please…,” Diesel shared on Instagram.
Diesel shared a photo of himself as Dominic Toretto and his co-star Michelle Rodriguez as Letty Ortiz. The actor also used the hashtag “#LosBandoleros2,” which referenced the short film Los Bandoleros that served as a prequel to 2009’s Fast & Furious 4.
The short film was released as part of the special edition home release of Fast & Furious 4, focused on Diesel’s Dominic as he sets up the hijacking of a fuel tanker in the Dominican Republic. Rodriguez, Sun Kang, Tego Calderón and Don Omar also starred.
Days before, Diesel shared a post where he also alluded to a sequel to Los Bandoleros.
“As I continue to travel this beautiful world… I ponder which would be the most magical desert for Los Bandoleros 2!” he shared.
Diesel previously shared the projects he was working on in 2025, which included Fast X: Part 2, set to be the grand finale of the Fast & Furious franchise.
Diesel also hinted that he was continuing “the fight to bring Fast X2, the finale, back to LA this summer.”
The actor had previously expressed his desire to film the latest installment of the Fast & Furious franchise in LA to help the local economy following the devastating wildfires.
“Last week, during the fires that displaced LA… my sister Jordana [Brewster] reached out to me and said… Please have Universal film the rest of Fast X Part 2 in LA,” Diesel said.
He continued, “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…”
