Los Angeles, April 10 - Vin Diesel has announced on social media that "Captain Marvel" star Brie Larson has joined the cast of "Fast & Furious 10" as the newest member. The actress, in the past, had expressed her wish to star in this action thriller franchise.## On Sunday (April 10), Vin Diesel took to Instagram and shared a picture of himself with Larson. Both the actor can be seen having broad smiles on their faces as Larson rests her hands on his shoulder. "Yeah yeah yeah... you see this angel over my shoulder cracking me up, you say to your self 'that's Captain Marvel. Clearly there is love and laughter in this image", Diesel captioned the picture. ## "What you don't see, however, is the character you will be introduced to in Fast10. You have no idea how timeless and amazing she will be in our mythology. Beyond her beauty, her intellect... her Oscar, haha is this profound soul who will add something you might not have expected but yearned for. Welcome to the FAMILY Brie", he further said. ## Directed by Justin Lin, "F10" will see Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris 'Ludacris' Bridges, Sung Kang, and Charlize Theron returning to reprise their roles along with Diesel himself.

'Aquaman' Star Jason Momoa To Fight Vin Diesel In 'Fast & Furious 10'

Los Angeles, January 29 - As "Fast and Furious 10" is gearing up to kick start the shoot soon, Vin Diesel looks to have found his counterpart with whom his Dominic Torreto will go head to head in the two-part finale of this high octane actioner.## According to The Hollywood Reporter, "Aquaman" star Jason Momoa, in the first major casting for "F10", is set to lock horns with Vin Diesel, his role, however, is not confirmed yet. The actor is reportedly in final negotiations to join the ensemble cast in what is being called "Fast & Furious 10" as a working title. ## While the plot details are yet to be known, the THR report says that Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Michelle Rodriguez, and Sung Kang are expected to rejoin the team with Justin Lin returning to direct. Vin Diesel and Lin are producing the film while Universal Pictures working as a distributor. ## Meanwhile, Vin Diesel wanted Dwayne Johnson to join him in the finale of this highly popular action film franchise in the world. Johnson, who appeared in the fifth through eighth films, as well as spinoff Hobbs & Shaw, however, refused to make a comeback over his feud with Diesel.## "Fast & Furious 10" is currently slated for May 19, 2023, release. However, because the script is still a work in progress (according to THR), it is unclear whether Momoa's part is protagonistic or antagonistic in nature, or perhaps even both. The "F9", which debuted in Summer 2021, was a major hit at the worldwide box office, grossing over $720 million. ## Momoa, on the other hand, has wrapped up the shoot of the much-awaited DC Superhero film, Aquaman sequel, "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom", last year. It is currently scheduled to release on December 16, 2022, release, clashing with the potential global highest grosser "Avatar 2". ## Stay tuned...

The said date will now be taken by an untitled animated film coming from the studio behind Shrek. The move to May puts Fast 10 right at the start of the summer blockbuster movie season.## Fast 10 will serve as the first half of a two-part finale for the Fast and Furious franchise. It was originally announced for the 2021 release but was pushed back after F9 was delayed to this past summer due to the COVID-19 pandemic. F9 set several pandemic box office records and grossed over $726 million worldwide, becoming the fourth highest-grossing film of 2021.## Justin Lin, who previously directed on Fast 3 through 6, and F9, will return to direct the film for the last time. The movie will also bring back many members of the family, including Vin Diesel's Dom, Michelle Rodriguez's Letty, Sung Kang's Han, and others. ## Meanwhile, Vin Diesel had recently requested Dwayne Johnson, who plays enemy-turned-friend Luke Hobbs in the Fast movies, to come back for the two-part finale F10. The Rock, however, earlier confirmed that he would not return for Fast 10 or 11, and would instead focus on the spinoff series, Hobbs & Shaw.## Stay tuned...

Vin Diesel Requests Dwayne Johnson To Return For 'Fast And Furious' Finale

Los Angeles, November 10 - With the Fast & Furious film franchise is nearing its end, star and producer Vin Diesel has requested former Fast & Furious co-star Dwayne Johnson to come back for the two-part finale F10 that is in the works. ## In the recent Instagram post, Diesel openly sent a message to Johnson, hoping to put an end to his feud with Johnson, with whom he fell out while collaborating on The Fate of the Furious. In the post, Vin requested him to return to play Luke Hobbs and reunite with Dominic Toretto (played by Diesel in the Fast franchise).## "My little brother Dwayne… the time has come", Diesel wrote in the Instagram caption. "The world awaits the finale of Fast 10. As you know, my children refer to you as Uncle Dwayne in my house. There is not a holiday that goes by that they and you don't send well wishes… but the time has come. Legacy awaits. I told you years ago that I was going to fulfill my promise to Pablo [Paul Walker]".## "I swore that we would reach and manifest the best Fast in the finale that is 10! I say this out of love… but you must show up, do not leave the franchise idle you have a very important role to play. Hobbs can't be played by no other. I hope that you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny", he added.## While Johanson is yet to respond to Diesel publicly, director Justin Lin, who will be helming the final two parts of F10, too seemed hopeful of Hobbs and Toretto reuniting for the finale. In a conversation with Deadline in April, Lin had said, "I never really considered them gone, you know? To me, they're still in this universe, they're part of this family. Whatever we do, whenever we're talking about the next chapter, I never feel like I have any restrictions, so I'm excited for what we build, and as we're coming to this kind of final chapter of this saga, I think I'm excited to revisit... Any character, in any situation, is up for discussion". ## View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vin Diesel (@vindiesel) ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: Marvel Studios 'Black Widow' Is Projected To Score Higher Than Universal Pictures 'F9' In The Domestic Opening Weekend

Log Angeles, June 20, 2021: The early box office predictions suggesting that Marvel Studios' Black Widow will outscore Universal Pictures' Fast & Furious 9, in the opening domestic weekend. Both movies are due to release on July 9 and June 25 respectively in the US. ## Black Widow and F9 were originally slated for 2020 release but the covid-19 pandemic delayed the releases by a whole year. And now, as theaters begin opening and the box-office starts to back on track with hits like A Quiet Place 2 and Godzilla vs. Kong - Black Widow, and F9 are set to be the biggest hits of the pandemic era. ## The fact that Scarlett Johanson fronted, Black Widow is a two-way release in theaters and on Disney Plus Premier Access for $30 simultaneously as compared to F9, which is an outright theatrical release. Still, Black Widow is expected to win the box office war against the high octane actioner, F9. ## According to Boxoffice Pro, Black Widow is expected to score between $65 million to $90 million in compared to F9's $50-$70 million in the opening weekend. Going by the predictions, Black Widow is set to become the top-grossing opening domestic weekend since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. ## Despite the covid-19 effect, Black Widow's opening weekend projection is already ahead of previous MCU movies such as - The Incredible Hulk ($55 million) and Ant-Man ($57 million). Both Captain America: The First Avenger and Thor opened to $65 million in 2011 and that matches Black Widow's lowest box-office predictions ($65M). If Black Widow opened to the highest projection of $90 million, it would top the opening weekends for Ant-Man and the Wasp ($75 million) as well as Doctor Strange and Thor: The Dark World ($85 million). ## Directed by Cate Shortland, the upcoming prequel is set to showcase the return of Scarlett Johansson as the titular spy. While the plot details are still being kept under wraps, Black Widow has been confirmed to be set in between the events of Captain America: Civil War (2016) and Avengers: Infinity War (2018). ## Scarlett Johansson will be joined by Florence Pugh, Rachel Weisz, and David Harbour in prominant roles along with O-T Fagbenle, William Hurt, and Ray Winstone. The early reviews from Black Widow are highly positive as critics are calling it one of the best solo films of Marvel Studios.## Meanwhile, on the other hand, Justin Lin's directorial, F9, has already opened in many international markets including China. It has crossed $200 million at the China box office while the overall collection of F9 is around $300 million.
