Action movie superstarDwayne “The Rock” Johnsonhas returned to theFast and Furiousfamily, and the title for his recently announced spinoff movie has seemingly been revealed. According to a new listing fromProduction Weekly, the Johnson-ledFast and Furiousspinoff will be titledFast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Reyes, meaning that it will be entirely centered on the battle between Johnson’s Luke Hobbs and Jason Momoa’s supervillain Dante Reyes.
So, rather than being a sequel to 2019’sFast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, which saw Johnson unite with Jason Statham,Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Reyeswill instead see action stars Dwayne Johnson and Jason Momoa clash. Which will surely result in the stuff that action movie dreams are made of.
No doubt taking place betweenFast XandFast and Furious 11, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Reyesis likely to pick upfollowing theFast Xmid-credits scene, which finds Johnson back as Luke Hobbs. During the short sequence, Momoa’s Dante tells Hobbs that he is the next target in his global revenge mission against those who killed his father back in 2011’sFast Five.
Johnson’sFast and Furiouscomeback came as a major surprise following his and Vin Diesel’s much-publicized feud. The actor has since taken to social mediato address his returnsaying, “Hope you’ve got your funderwear on… HOBBS IS BACK. And he just got lei’d. Luke Hobbs will be returning to the Fast & Furious franchise. Your reactions around the world to Hobbs’ return inFast Xhave blown us away.

Last summer Vin and I put all the past behind us. We’ll lead with brotherhood and resolve - and always take care of the franchise, characters & FANS that we love.”

The Fast & Furious Franchise Will End Across Three Parts
The end of the road begins inFast X, the tenth outing in theFast & Furioussaga. Over many missions and against impossible odds, Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his family confront the most lethal opponent they’ve ever faced. InFast Five, Dom and his crew took out nefarious Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes and decapitated his empire on a bridge in Rio De Janeiro. What they didn’t know was that Reyes’ son, Dante (Jason Momoa), witnessed it all and has spent the last 12 years masterminding a plan to make Dom pay the ultimate price.
While it had been previously revealed that theFast and Furiousfranchise would end with two parts, Diesel has since stated thatit will actually be three, with a final trilogy bringing the main series to its inevitably explosive conclusion. But it won’t end there, Diesel has also revealed that several spinoffsare now in developmentsaying, “I started developing the female spinoff… in 2017 with other spinoffs. The sooner I deliver the finale, the sooner I can launch all the projects. Look how many characters and great talent there is in the movie… These characters are appealing and we need to see more of them.”
Fast Xwas released on premium video on demand earlier this month, and is expected to land on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-Ray, and DVD in August.
