Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Won’t Be in Fast and Furious 9

Dwayne Johnsons’ Fast & Furious spin-off film, Hobbs and Shaw, recently wrapped production, and though that’s great news, there’s an accompanying sad news that fans wouldn’t like.  Dwayne Johnson has confirmed that he won’t be in the Fast and Furious 9 movie.

Johnson spoke with MTV News and revealed that at this point, there are no plans for him to appear in Fast & Furious 9, but he hasn’t ruled out future films in the franchise.

“The plan has always been for the Fast and Furious universe to grow and expand,” Johnson explained. “As of now, we’re not in Fast 9 because they’re getting ready to start shooting. But who knows with Fast 10 and down the road, you never know. Because look, at the end of the day, the truth is, there’s unfinished business between Hobbs and Dom. It’s unfinished.”

Speaking of spin-offs, an all-female Fast and Furious is also in the works, according to Vin Diesel. In an Instagram video, Diesel shared the news and said:

“My producing partner who started Fast & Furious with me, Neal Moritz, is also my producing partner here and his head is blown. He just can’t contain his excitement about what the world will see when they see Bloodshot in 2020.”

“I have a guest here from the Fast world, someone who surprised. Shout out to universal for wanting my female spin-off concept and my other spin-off concept the two that you guys…we’re all good.”

What do you guys think of The Rock not being in Fast and Furious 9?
