The 'Fast and the Furious' franchise continues with a first 'F9' movie poster
It’s been quite a peculiar road for the Fast and the Furious series. The franchise has seen, to date, eight big screen entries, an additional big screen spinoff with Hobbes and Shaw, and even an animated series on Netflix. Now, 19 years after the original The Fast and the Furious hit theaters, Universal Pictures is preparing to unleash a new chapter. Currently dubbed F9, the upcoming blockbuster has today revealed its first poster and released a tease of the first trailer, which is set to debut online in full this Friday. Check it out in the player below and take a look at the poster at the bottom of this page.
F9 continues a franchise that has already taken in more than $5 billion at the worldwide box office. F9 sees the return of stars Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Charlize Theron and Helen Mirren. What’s more, Justin Lin is back in the director’s chair. Lin, who made his franchise debut with 2006’s The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, went on to also helm the fourth film, Fast and Furious, in 2009, the fifth film, Fast Five, in 2011, and the sixth film, Furious Six, in 2013.
Check back this Friday for the first F9 trailer and catch the film on the big screen May 22.
