Vin Diesel Says Four Fast & Furious Shows Are in the Works

KEY POINTS:
- Vin Diesel announced a Fast & Furious TV project at NBCUniversal’s upfront.
- Peacock has one series officially in development, though Diesel referenced multiple shows.
- The expansion comes as the franchise prepares for its 25th anniversary celebration.
- The next film, Fast Forever, is scheduled for March 17, 2028.
Vin Diesel brought the Fast & Furious franchise to NBCUniversal’s upfront presentation Monday in New York, revealing that the long-running action series is moving deeper into television with a new project for Peacock. The announcement matters because one of Universal’s biggest film brands is now being positioned for a streaming future while its main movie saga heads toward a planned finale.
Peacock is developing a Fast & Furious series, with Diesel attached as an executive producer. The actor told the upfront audience that several television projects are in the works, but reports said only one series has been officially confirmed by the company so far.
The project gives Universal a new way to extend a franchise that began in 2001 as a street-racing film and grew into a global action brand built around family, loyalty, heists and oversized set pieces. Over 25 years, Fast & Furious has become one of the studio’s most valuable properties, with more than $7 billion in worldwide box-office revenue.
Diesel’s appearance also carried a clear message for longtime fans: the franchise is not slowing down, even as the core film series approaches its final chapter. Universal has dated Fast Forever, the next mainline movie, for March 17, 2028.
The television move is especially notable because Fast & Furious has mostly lived on the big screen. The franchise previously reached TV through the animated Netflix series Fast & Furious Spy Racers, which ran from 2019 to 2021. A live-action Peacock project would give the brand a larger weekly storytelling format and could open the door to characters and corners of the universe that the films have not had time to explore.
According to reports, the Peacock series includes Diesel among its executive producers, with franchise veterans and television writers also involved. Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman are set as co-showrunners, while Neal Moritz and Chris Morgan are among the key names connected to the project.
For Peacock, the series would arrive at a time when streaming services are leaning heavily on recognizable brands. A Fast & Furious show gives NBCUniversal a title with built-in awareness, international appeal and years of fan loyalty. It also gives Peacock a potential action franchise that can stand apart from crime procedurals, reality shows and comedy programming.
The timing is also strategic. The first Fast & Furious film is being celebrated for its 25th anniversary, including a Cannes Film Festival screening tied to the milestone. That anniversary gives Universal a strong promotional window to remind audiences how far the franchise has traveled since its Los Angeles street-racing roots.
Still, several major details remain unannounced. Peacock has not revealed the show’s title, cast, plot, release date or whether Diesel will appear onscreen as Dominic Toretto. For now, the confirmed news is that a series is in development and that Universal sees more life in the Fast & Furious world beyond theatrical sequels.
The bigger question is how television can expand a franchise known for scale. The films are built on high-speed chases, global locations and theatrical spectacle, while a series may need to balance action with character-driven storytelling. That could be an advantage if the show uses streaming to focus on new crews, legacy characters or smaller stories connected to the larger mythology.
With Fast Forever now set for 2028, Peacock’s Fast & Furious series could help keep the brand active before the final movie arrives. It also signals that the franchise’s theatrical ending may not be the end of Universal’s larger Fast universe.
