Actor Vin Diesel, who plays Dominic Toretto in the films, revealed the project during a presentation for advertisers at Radio City Music Hall.
Diesel told attendees that four television projects were in development, although an NBCUniversal press release later only confirmed one Fast & Furious series.
Speaking at the event, Diesel said he had once been reluctant to continue making sequels, worrying that extending the story of street racers could stop the original film from becoming a cinematic classic.
That concern, he said, has now disappeared. The Cannes Film Festival will celebrate the franchise’s 25th anniversary this week with a special midnight screening of the original movie.
Diesel is expected to attend the screening alongside several cast members from the long-running series.
Since the first Fast & Furious film was released in 2001, the franchise’s 11 movies have earned more than $7 billion worldwide at the box office.
The expansion of the brand is also continuing beyond film and television. A new Fast & Furious-themed roller coaster is scheduled to open this summer at Universal Studios Hollywood, while another attraction is planned for Universal’s Orlando theme parks.
Diesel said fans have increasingly demanded more stories connected to the franchise’s legacy characters and ongoing storylines.
He also praised Donna Langley, saying her leadership convinced him the transition to television would protect the franchise’s core themes of family, international appeal and character integrity.
The final Fast & Furious film is currently scheduled for release on March 17, 2028.
