Fast X set up a lot of the franchise's future, including a Hobbs standalone movie, and there's already tons of Fast & Furious Hobbs spinoff news. The tenth Fast & Furious movie introduced Dante Reyes (Jason Momoa) as the series' new villain and was the beginning of the epic two-part finale of the franchise. Fast X ended on several huge cliffhangers, the first of which is Dom and his son stuck at the bottom of a dam and surrounded by bombs that are about to detonate. The second cliffhanger sees Gisele (Gal Gadot), who was presumed dead, emerge from a submarine.
However, the most exciting cliffhanger was the post-credits scene, which brings back Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson). The scintillating scene establishes the conflict between Hobbs and Reyes by explaining that Hobbs killed Reyes' father during the events of Fast Five. Though it was originally thought that the scene was only intended to set up Johnson's proper return in Fast & Furious 11, or even Hobbs & Shaw 2, it turned out to be setting up a Fast & Furious Hobbs spinoff movie.
Fast And Furious Hobbs Spinoff Most Recent News
A Rumored Title Is Revealed
The most recent Fast and Furious Hobbs spinoff news is that, based on the reported title, Momoa will be reprising his villainous role of Dante Reyes in the movie. This hardly comes as a surprise, as Dante's return in the spinoff is exactly what the post-credits scene hints at. The rumored spinoff title is Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Reyes, which follows the same pattern as Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. The title also suggests that Reyes will have just as much screen time as Hobbs himself.
Fast And Furious Hobbs Spinoff Confirmed
Another F&F Spinoff Is On The Way
The Fast and Furious Hobbs spinoff is confirmed. Johnson confirmed the Hobbs movie himself not long after Fast X was theatrically released, and interest was immediately piqued. Jonhson explained, "The next Fast & Furious film you’ll see the legendary lawman in will be the HOBBS movie that will serve as a fresh, new chapter & set up for FASTX: Part II." However, while it's confirmed there's no other information about when the movie will go into production, and, as yet, there's no Hobbs spinoff release date.
Fast And Furious Hobbs Spinoff Cast
Who Stars In The New Spinoff?
The only actor confirmed to the Fast and Furious Hobbs spinoff cast so far is Hobbs himself, Dwayne Johnson. However, while there's not been an official announcement yet, the reported title of the movie heavily suggests that Jason Momoa will play Dante Reyes in the Fast and Furious Hobbs spinoff. As Hobbs struck a close relationship with Shaw (Jason Statham), it's possible that Statham could reprise his Fast & Furious role too, but anybody outside of Johnson and Momoa is purely speculation.
Fast And Furious Hobbs Spinoff Story
What Happens In The Spinoff?
Nothing is known about the Hobbs spinoff story. However, Johnson did confirm that it will bridge the gap between Fast X and Fast & Furious 11. Based on the Fast X post-credits scene and the reported title of the spin-off, the movie will likely be a cat-and-mouse chase movie between Hobbs and Dante, and there's no doubt that it'll be full of explosive action. If that's the case, the Fast & Furious Hobbs spinoff movie has the potential to be the best film in the franchise in a while.
