Jason Momoa has revealed he has yet to see a script for the upcoming Fast X Part 2, raising questions about the sequel’s production timeline. While expressing a strong desire to reprise his role as the villain Dante, Momoa confirmed that he cannot commit to the project without a screenplay, a statement that has fueled speculation about the future of the blockbuster franchise.
The delay is particularly noteworthy following the commercial success of Fast X, which grossed over $704 million worldwide after its 2023 release. Despite high expectations for a swift follow-up, potential scheduling conflicts, complex plot development, and budgetary considerations are thought to be contributing to the hold-up.
Star and producer Vin Diesel previously targeted a 2025 release date, which suggests production would not begin until early next year. This timeline must accommodate the cast’s busy schedules, including Momoa’s work on his historical drama Chief of War. Creatively, writers face the dual pressures of resolving the previous film’s major cliffhanger and crafting a satisfying conclusion for what may be the final installment of the main saga.
Momoa’s eagerness to return is clear, but so is his need for a solid script. “I would love to come back and play, man,” he said. “But I got no script, so not that soon.” This uncertainty has prompted widespread fan theories about the sequel’s plot, from a new global threat to a potential redemption arc for Dante. With the franchise’s conclusion possibly on the horizon, the lack of a script keeps both the cast and its global fanbase waiting in anticipation.
