The 'Fast & Furious' Is Officially Getting a Spin-Off Streaming Show

The Fast & Furious franchise is heading to television.

During NBCUniversal’s upfront presentation this week, Vin Diesel confirmed that a new Fast & Furious spin-off series is officially in development for Peacock. Diesel, who serves as both the face of the franchise and one of its executive producers, told attendees the long-running action series has been looking toward television expansion for years.

“For the last decade, we have realized that the fans have wanted more,” Diesel said during the presentation. “They wanted us to expand the legacy characters, their stories.”

Diesel claimed four separate Fast & Furious shows are planned for Peacock, though it's reported only one series is currently moving forward officially. Variety reported that Universal Television is still evaluating other concepts at various stages of development.

Details about the first series remain limited. There’s no title yet, no premiere date, and no confirmed plot. What is confirmed is the production team behind the project. Diesel will executive produce alongside Samantha Vincent, president of his One Race Films production company. Franchise veterans Neal H. Moritz, Chris Morgan, Jeff Kirschenbaum, and Pavun Shetty are also attached.

The series will be run by Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman, who previously worked together on Shades of Blue. Daniels also spent time producing Sons of Anarchy.

The move into streaming television isn’t all that surprising. Universal has spent years turning Fast & Furious into one of its most valuable entertainment properties, even as the films themselves became progressively more absurd. The franchise has generated more than $7 billion globally since the original 2001 film arrived during the peak tuner-car era.

The Fast & Furious is nearing its cinematic endpoint. The 11th and reportedly final installment, Fast Forever, is scheduled to arrive in theaters on March 17, 2028. Whether that actually ends the franchise remains questionable. The series is particularly well-suited for television—it thrives on cliffhangers, overlapping character arcs, and increasingly ridiculous action.

Stretching that formula into episodic streaming probably makes more sense than anything.
