As Vin Diesel goes full throttle toward the Fast & Furious grand finale, he’s expanding the franchise’s star-studded extended cast with the onscreen debut of a global star.
On Friday, the producer and star of the action movies announced that he has a role for Cristiano Ronaldo in the upcoming 12th and final installment Fast X: Part 2, set for an April 2027 premiere, sharing the news with a photo of the two of them on Instagram.
“Everyone asked, would he be in the Fast mythology… I gotta tell you he is a real one. We wrote a role for him…” Diesel captioned the post.
In February 2024, Diesel announced that the next installment in the franchise will be the last. “This grand finale is not just an ending; it’s a celebration of the incredible family we’ve built together,” he wrote.
Stars of said family, which launched with the Diesel/Paul Walker-led original in 2001, include Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez, Charlize Theron, Dwayne Johnson, Jason Momoa, Hellen Mirren, Cardi B, John Cena, Jason Statham, Gal Gadot, Ludacris, Bow Wow, Vanessa Kirby, Alan Ritchson and more.
Earlier this year, Diesel confirmed that production on the finale “will finally return home” to Los Angeles following the devastating wildfires in January.
