FAST X: PART 2 Teaser (2025) With Jason Momoa & Gal Gadot
Justin Lin, who co-wrote the screenplay with Daniel Casey, is the director of the upcoming American action movie F9, commonly known as Fast & Furious 9. It is the ninth major installment, the tenth full-length movie produced in the Fast & Furious franchise, and the follow-up to The Fate of the Furious (2017). Featuring Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, John Cena, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, Helen Mirren, and Charlize Theron, F9 is the first movie directed by Lin since Fast & Furious 6 (2013) and the first without a Chris Morgan script since 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003).
F9 was originally scheduled for worldwide release in April 2019, but was delayed several times, first due to the releases of Hobbs & Shaw (2019) and No Time to Die (2021), and then the COVID-19 pandemic. It is now officially scheduled to world premiere in Hong Kong, South Korea and Taiwan on May 19, 2021, and is set to be released in the United States on June 25, 2021
Disney’s 2019 live-action/CGI remake of The Lion King. Directed by Barry Jenkins (known for films like Moonlight and If Beale Street Could Talk), Mufasa: The Lion King is set to explore the backstory of Mufasa, the iconic lion king and father of Simba, who was portrayed by James Earl Jones in the 2019 film.
Mufasa: The Lion King will delve into Mufasa’s life before he became king, revealing his origins, struggles, and journey to the throne. The film is expected to focus on his rise from humble beginnings to becoming the leader of the Pride Lands. It will explore his relationship with his brother Scar (then known as Taka), the complicated family dynamics, and how Mufasa ultimately became the wise, kind-hearted king that Simba looks up to.
The movie is likely to feature both young Mufasa and his older, kingly self, with the younger version of Mufasa voiced by Aaron Pierre. The adult Mufasa, who was voiced by James Earl Jones in the 2019 film, is expected to be voiced by a new actor in this prequel (likely using some form of voice synthesis or CGI technology to maintain consistency with the original portrayal).
