Vin Diesel Films 'Fast X: Part 2' Finale in LA

Fast & Furious star Vin Diesel announced that the final installment of the franchise, Fast X: Part 2, will film in Los Angeles, marking a return to the city where the series began in 2001. This decision follows co-star Jordana Brewster's request, amid devastating wildfires affecting the area, to bring production back to LA to support the local economy. Brewster, who plays Mia Toretto, desires for the series to return to its roots with a gritty, street-racing focus. Diesel emphasized the significance of this 'grand finale' as a celebration of the family's legacy built over two decades. The film is expected to release in 2026 and aims to conclude the main saga, though spin-offs like Hobbs & Reyes may continue. The franchise's return to LA also aligns with the cast's hope for a more grounded narrative, contrasting with recent CGI-heavy entries.
