Fast & Furious: Vin Diesel confirms Cipher spin-off is in the works

The primary Quick franchise could also be coming to an finish with two extra films however the universe is more likely to proceed to broaden thanks to varied spin-offs. A sequel to Hobbs & Shaw is in the works whereas a female-centric spin-off is also in development. There’s one other spinoff so as to add to the listing and franchise head-honcho, Vin Diesel, is confirming the information.

Throughout a bit in “Variety” relating to Charlize Theron and The Old Guard 2 going into production in early 2022, it was additionally revealed that Vin Diesel has assembled a writers room to develop a spin-off that’s targeted on Charlize Theron’s Cipher. Theron’s cyberterrorist made her debut in 2017’s THE FATE OF THE FURIOUS the place she blackmailed Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto to help her in hijacking a nuclear submarine to set off a nuclear battle. The character escaped on the conclusion of the movie and returned within the just-released Fast 9, albeit, with restricted screentime. Diesel clearly thinks there’s extra to discover along with her character and this might find yourself being yet one more franchise for Theron together with The Old Guard and, if we’re so fortunate, one other Atomic Blonde movie. Theron did verify the information that she was conscious that Diesel had assembled a writers room for a Cipher spin-off however she supplied no different particulars on the undertaking.

The villains of the Quick franchise are a combined bag. Most of them are usually forgettable however Deckard Shaw and Owen Shaw, performed by Jason Statham and Luke Evans, made an impression, and Theron’s Cipher additionally proved to be an enormous risk, having had Dom’s child’s mom Elena (Elsa Pataky), killed proper in entrance of him. She. clearly has no limits and that makes her a villain to look at.

It’s going to be attention-grabbing to see what a spin-off can be. I might think about it might be a prequel, presumably establishing how she will get the place we meet her in The Destiny of the Livid. I’ll say that it looks as if she’s nonetheless the principle antagonist of the principle franchise so it truly is up within the air as to how a spin-off about her character will play it. It is the Quick and the Livid so something is feasible.
