The SAG Award-nominated actor is rumored to play one of the villains in the action film&#8217;s ensemble cast, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-news\/fast-and-furious-10-jason-momoa-villain-role-1235082762\/\">The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>. The news marks the first major casting for the franchise&#8217;s next installment.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Fast &amp; Furious 10<\/em><\/strong>&#8216;s team officially welcomed Momoa into the cast via social media this afternoon. The series&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TheFastSaga\/status\/1487181749675122690\/photo\/1\">Twitter<\/a> page features a post that&#8217;s captioned: &#8220;The Fast Fam keeps getting bigger.

Charlize Theron, who first appeared in the series&#8217; eighth movie, <strong><em>The Fate of the Furious<\/em><\/strong>, and returned for <strong><em>F9<\/em><\/strong>, is also expected to appear in the upcoming 10th entry.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The Fast Fam keeps getting bigger.

The latter actor starred in the series&#8217; fifth through eighth installments, as well as the spinoff <strong><em>Hobbs &amp; Shaw<\/em><\/strong>, but didn&#8217;t appear in <strong><em>F9<\/em><\/strong>. Diesel courted his former co-star to return to the franchise both privately and publicly, including on social media.<\/p>\n<p>The actor-producer pleaded for the former WWE star to return to the main series in November through an Instagram post. Johnson then responded in an interview last month that there was &#8220;no chance&#8221; that he would reprise his role of Diplomatic Security Service agent Luke Hobbs, in part because he felt that his fellow actor was being manipulative.<\/p>\n<p>As a result,\u00a0Diesel helped lead the search to find another performer who could fill Johnson&#8217;s star power and physicality in <strong><em>The Fast Saga<\/em><\/strong>. It&#8217;s not yet know, however, who Momoa will play in the follow-up, as the script is still being finished. The franchise&#8217;s recent entries, however, have featured several anti-heroes who have been played by such actors as Jason Statham and John Cena.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Fast and Furious 10<\/em><\/strong> is expected to begin shoots this spring. The series&#8217; studio, Universal Pictures, is currently planning on releasing the next sequel on May 19, 2023. The upcoming feature is expected to be the penultimate installment in the franchise, which is expected to wrap up with its 11th film.<\/p>\n<p>Momoa wrapped shooting the <strong><em>Aquaman<\/em><\/strong> sequel, <em><strong>Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom<\/strong>,<\/em> last year. He can also be seen in the upcoming epic fantasy movie, <strong><em>Slumberland<\/em><\/strong>, which is based on the Winsor McCay comic strip from the early 20th century. The drama is set to be released on Netflix later this year.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cinemadailyus.com\/author\/karen-benardello\/\">Check out more of Karen Benardello\u2019s articles.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jason Momoa has signed on to star in the upcoming 10th entry of the Fast &amp; Furious series.
