Another year, another Fast & Furious movie. This year, we are up to the whopping tenth instalment in the fast car franchise (make that eleven if you count spin-off Hobbs & Shaw).
That being said, it appears we are reaching the end of the road with the Fast franchise, with the announced eleventh instalment said to be the last. That got us thinking about what the final film will be named, especially considering the Fast and Furious movies have some of the strangest naming conventions in the entertainment industry.
What’s in a name?

Hollywood is no stranger to sequels, or a whole lot of them, but usually, these are named in a somewhat sequential way to help audiences understand where in the timeline the film is that you’re watching.
This is not the case with the Fast and Furious movies.
Here’s a look at the titles of all the films in the franchise so far:
- The Fast and the Furious
- 2 Fast 2 Furious
- The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
- Fast & Furious
- Fast Five
- Fast & Furious 6
- Furious 7
- The Fate of the Furious
- Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw
- F9
- Fast X
With the exception of 2 Fast 2 Furious (which is genius), there is no rhyme or reason when it comes to naming these sequels. We couldn’t simply go The Fast and the Furious one through 10. No, we had to make it as inconsistent and intentionally confusing as possible for everyone watching the series, whether they be long-time fans or complete newbies.
Honestly, I’d say it’s a part of the joke at this point, particularly when it comes to a series that is known for going bigger, better and more ridiculous with each instalment.
With that being said, we maintain that ‘Fast-10 Your Seatbelts’ is a missed opportunity in the case of Fast X.
Fast and Furious 11: What will it be named?
At this point, the Fast franchise is really just trying to rack up every different kind of sequel naming convention there is. Now, we know that an eleventh movie is in the works and that it is said to be the conclusion of the series, so anticipation is high when it comes to what the title of this one will be.
Given what we know of the Fast franchise’s naming habits, we’ve put together some suggestions for main movie number 11:
- Fast X: Part II
- Fast 10: Part II
- Fast X: Part 11
- Fast X 2
- Fast X: Part 2
- Fast >< (it’s the X, but it’s split in 2)
- 11: Fast and the Furious
- F&F: 11
- Fast & Furious Vol. 11
- The Fast and the Furious: 3011
- The Fa11 of the Furious
- The Fastest and Most Furious
- The Fast and the Furious (again)
- Another Fast and Furious Movie
- Faster
- Fast Family
- Formula 11
- Toretto: A Fast and the Furious Story
- Dominic Torreto: Space Ranger
- The Last Fast
- The Fast of Us
- Eleven (A Stranger Things x Fast & Furious Movie)
- Cars 11
- The Lego Fast & Furious Movie
- Herbie Goes Furious
- Fast X: Endgame
- SLOW
Just a list of naming suggestions that Universal can take or leave.
