Fast & Furious Franchise Leaving Netflix in November

by

The action series is departing from Netflix. Viewers have about two weeks left to stream all seven films before they’re removed from the platform.

According to What’s on Netflix, all seven movies in *The Fast and the Furious* franchise will be removed from Netflix on November 1st. This includes the original *The Fast and the Furious* (2001), *2 Fast 2 Furious* (2003), *The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift* (2006), *Fast Five* (2011), *Fast & Furious 6* (2013), *Furious 7* (2015), and *Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw* (2019). If you’re planning a marathon, be aware that the fourth film, *Fast & Furious* (2009), and the eighth, *The Fate of the Furious* (2017), are already exclusive to HBO Max. So, to watch the entire series before they leave Netflix, you’ll need to stream those two movies on HBO Max as well.

Fans planning a *Fast & Furious* marathon might want to stop after *The Fate of the Furious*. The next two movies, *F9* and *Fast X*, are on different streaming services – *F9* is on Prime Video and *Fast X* is on Starz. You’ll need to watch *Fast X* before *Fast & Furious 11* comes out, as the next movie picks up right after the shocking cliffhanger ending of *Fast X*, leaving the future of all the main characters uncertain.

What’s Holding Up Fast & Furious 11?

For years, fans of the *Fast & Furious* series have known that the story would conclude with what was planned as *Fast 11*. Vin Diesel confirmed in 2021 that the tenth and eleventh films would be a grand finale to the entire saga. However, after *Fast X* didn’t perform as well as expected at the box office – earning $715 million on a $379 million budget – plans for *Fast 11* were reevaluated, and Vin Diesel and Universal Pictures began considering new ways to wrap up the franchise.

Originally, Jason Momoa was slated to be the main villain in *Fast 11*. However, reports surfaced in January 2024 suggesting Universal Pictures was considering a new direction, aiming for a film that felt more like the early *Fast & Furious* movies focused on street racing. Vin Diesel voiced his desire for this change in November, sharing on Instagram that he wanted the next installment to emphasize “real street racing, practical stunts… and a reunion” with the original cast. Diesel has since confirmed that *Fast 11* will return to Los Angeles, the setting of the first film, and will feature a return for the character Brian O’Conner, previously played by the late Paul Walker from 2001’s *The Fast and the Furious* through 2015’s *Furious 7*.

Filming for *Fast 11* is tentatively scheduled to start in 2026, with a potential release in 2027. However, Universal is currently working to finalize the movie’s budget, which is proving more challenging than expected. The latest script draft is estimated to cost around $250 million – $50 million over the studio’s preferred budget. To reduce costs to approximately $200 million, the filmmakers may need to limit filming to fewer international locations and potentially scale back the roles of some actors. Fans should remember that these details are unconfirmed until Universal makes an official announcement.
