Universal Studios revs up the engine for the highly anticipated “Fast X,” the penultimate installment in the explosive “Fast & Furious” franchise. The adrenaline-fueled movie will be racing into theaters on May 19.

The first trailer for the film offers a glimpse into the high-speed action and heart-pumping thrills that fans have come to expect from the beloved franchise. The film follows globe-trotting street racer Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his team of fearless racers as they face off against two formidable foes: the cyberterrorist Cipher (Charlize Theron) and her mysterious accomplice Dante (Jason Momoa). With the help of a new ally named Tess (Brie Larson), Toretto must protect his family and outwit the villains before it’s too late.

At the heart of the trailer is Toretto’s fear of losing someone he loves, revealed to be his young son Brian (Leo Abelo Perry), who is kidnapped by Dante. The trailer also introduces Toretto’s grandmother (played by Rita Moreno), as well as several familiar faces, including John Cena as Toretto’s brother Jakob and Jason Statham as mercenary Deckard Shaw.

The trailer ends with a dramatic showdown between Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) and Cipher, setting the stage for what promises to be an epic and unforgettable showdown.

The “Fast & Furious” franchise, which combines the excitement of street racing with spy thrills, has been a fan favorite since its launch in 2001 with “The Fast and the Furious.” The films have collectively grossed over $6 billion worldwide and have a massive and dedicated fanbase.

The debut of the “Fast X” trailer was a star-studded affair, with Vin Diesel and other members of the cast in attendance, including Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, and director Louis Leterrier. The evening was a nostalgic celebration of the franchise’s 20-year history and a testament to the deep connection between the films and their fans.

“Fast X” is directed by Louis Leterrier, written by Justin Lin and Dan Mazeau, and produced by Vin Diesel, Justin Lin, Jeff Kirschenbaum, Samantha Vincent, and Neal Moritz. The film also stars Alan Ritchson, Nathalie Emmanuel, Michael Rooker, Helen Mirren, Daniela Melchior, Jordana Brewster, Cardi B, and Scott Eastwood.

Universal Studios continues its strong start to 2023 with “Fast X” following the successful releases of “Knock at the Cabin” and “M3GAN,” and several exciting titles on the horizon, including “Cocaine Bear,” “The Super Mario Bros. Movie,” and the horror-comedy “Renfield.”
