Vin Diesel Cried Over the ‘Fast Forever’ Script, but the Movie’s Director Still Hasn’t Read It: ‘There Will Be an Ending, and It’s Great’
The forthcoming eleventh Fast and Furious film, titled 'Fast Forever,' has generated enthusiasm from star Vin Diesel, who publicly praised the screenplay by Michael Lesslie as exceptional and described it as the best script he has read in decades. The production comes after the 2023 release of 'Fast X,' which grossed over $714 million worldwide and concluded with cliffhanger endings designed to propel audiences toward the franchise's planned culmination.
Director Louis Leterrier, who directed the previous film and is returning for this project, acknowledged in a recent interview that he has not yet reviewed the script himself. Despite not having read it, Leterrier expressed confidence in the project, hinting that the film would deliver a meaningful conclusion to the franchise narrative. The film remains scheduled for release on March 17, 2028, having experienced production delays since the previous entry premiered three years prior.
