Fast Forever, AKA Fast and Furious 11, has had a long-awaited update – the final installment in the franchise has found its screenwriter.

Michael Lesslie will pen the script, as revealed by Vin Diesel on social media. "25 years. Eight directors. Countless writers, crew members, performers, each one giving something real to a saga that has outlasted trends, cynics, and time itself," Diesel wrote on Instagram.

"That doesn’t happen by accident…It happens because people show up and pour themselves into something bigger than any one individual. Sitting across from Mike Leslie, hearing what he plans to contribute to the polish of the next chapter, that same feeling returned. A story with something real beating inside it."

Lesslie has previously written movies like Assassin's Creed, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, and Now You See Me: Now You Don't.

"There is a particular weight that comes with delivering a finale," Diesel continued. "A responsibility you feel in your chest, to everyone who gave something to get here, to the audience that stayed. You don’t take that lightly. You take it as fuel. And when you find out you’re going back to Los Angeles… back to the streets where it all began, something clicks into place. The city that made the first film feel alive, still here, still holding. Coming home to close it out right. That’s not logistics. That’s a gift."

It's been three years since the last Fast and Furious movie, and it will be two more years until we get to see the final part of the long-running franchise. The follow-up to Fast X was originally meant to be released last year, but it was delayed by the WGA writers' strike in 2023, while more recent reports claimed the movie almost faced cancellation on account of budget issues. Still, this news is further confirmation that we'll be back in the driver's seat for one last ride eventually.

Fast Forever is set to arrive in theaters on March 17, 2028. While we wait, fill out your watchlist with our guide to this year's biggest upcoming movies.
