Fast & Furious 9 director Justin Lin announced the mix on the sequel was finally complete. It is pushing the film even closer to being ready for release. F9: The Fast Saga looks like it’s just about nearing completion. The ninth core film in the Fast & Furious series delayed its release earlier this year due to the covid-19. The film is now will debut in May 2021. There are also some plans that two more films in the main Fast series will release after F9.
On November 11, Lin tweeted out that the film has been officially mixed which means the movie pretty much finished. There may still be some VFX that need to be polished or some other nips and tucks. But, the takeaway here is that the film will complete before the release date.
Plot details on F9 remain scarce, but the film will likely be bonkers and delightful lead into the series’ endgame. It has already been greenlit for two more Fast & Furious movies that Lin will direct. The Fate of the Furious culminated in a battle between a submarine and a fleet of supercars on a field of ice. That might not even quite compete with the drone battle that ended Furious 7.
It’s always fun to see how the movies try to one-up themselves. Rumors of the crew potentially going to space could make for a fun ride in F9. That will be sick.
Whatever thrills await the Familia in F9, it should at least be an entertaining ride. Prepare your popcorn and grab it tightly, because it will be so ‘Fast and Furious’.

Here’s the official synopsis for Fast & Furious 9:
No matter how fast you are, no one outruns their past.
Summer 2020 is the time for F9, the ninth chapter in the saga that has endured for almost two decades and has earned more than $5 billion around the world.
Vin Diesel’s Dom Toretto is leading a quiet life off the grid with Letty and his son, little Brian, but they know that danger always lurks just over their peaceful horizon. This time, that threat will force Dom to confront the sins of his past if he’s going to save those he loves most. His crew joins together to stop a world-shattering plot led by the most skilled assassin and high-performance driver they’ve ever encountered: a man who also happens to be Dom’s forsaken brother, Jakob (John Cena, next year’s The Suicide Squad).
F9 sees the return of Justin Lin as director, who helmed the third, fourth, fifth and sixth chapters of the series when it transformed into a global blockbuster. The action hurtles around the globe—from London to Tokyo, from Central America to Edinburgh, and from a secret bunker in Azerbaijan to the teeming streets of Tblisi. Along the way, old friends will be resurrected, old foes will return, history will be rewritten, and the true meaning of family will be tested like never before.
The film stars returning cast members Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel and Sung Kang, with Oscar® winner Helen Mirren and Oscar® winner Charlize Theron. F9 also features Grammy-winning superstar Cardi B as new franchise character Leysa, a woman with a connection to Dom’s past, and a cameo by Reggaeton sensation Ozuna.
F9 is produced by Neal H. Moritz, Vin Diesel, Jeff Kirschenbaum, Joe Roth, Justin Lin, Clayton Townsend and Samantha Vincent.
