Vin Diesel Hints That He’s “Dying” To Do A Fast and Furious Musical

Hollywood star Vin Diesel has hinted that he’s “dying” to do a Fast & Furious musical one day in the future. Why not?

The Fast and Furious series began around 20 years ago in 2001. Time really has flown by from its humble (ish) beginnings. What started out as a movie franchise about fast cars, races, conspiracies and the occasional heist has gotten wackier as years go by.

Over the top stunts, tanks, space rockets and cars that defy physics have all played a part in making the Fast franchise what it is. It’s why it wasn’t that shocking when it was said a Jurassic Park crossover could be possible the other month.

Nothing is impossible, right?

At this stage, it’s probably fair to say that as fun as the Fast & Furious series is, it’s pretty much become a parody of itself. With each new release that arrives, it’s a constant game of one-upmanship. However, if we got a Fast & Furious musical, perhaps in space, surely that would be the pinnacle of the series?

When speaking on The Kelly Clarkson Show (via Entertainment Weekly), Fast and Furious star Vin Diesel said that he’s been “dying to do a musical my whole life.

When singer and host of the talk show Kelly Clarkson asked Vin Diesel if he’d like to see a musical version of Fast and Furious, he replied: “Well, I’m dying to do a musical… I’ve been dying to do a musical my whole life. I was this close to doing Guys and Dolls with Steven Spielberg, but we ended up not doing that.

Could it actually happen?

If you would have asked me even 10 years ago if we’d ever see a Fast & Furious musical movie, I would have laughed it off. Right now though, nothing would surprise me with this series. And while I’m not much of a fan of musicals, I kind of want to see this happen.

Fast & Furious 9 is showing at cinemas right now. Would you like to see a Fast & Furious musical? Let us know across our social media channels.
