Hollywood star Vin Diesel has confirmed that a role has been written for global football icon Cristiano Ronaldo in the upcoming Fast & Furious movie, fueling excitement among fans of both sport and cinema.
Diesel, who has starred as
Dominic Toretto throughout the decade-long action franchise, shared the news
with his millions of followers on Instagram, posting a photo with Ronaldo and
revealing that filmmakers had crafted a part specifically for the Portuguese
superstar. While details of the character and storyline remain under wraps, the
announcement marks a major crossover between two of the world’s biggest
entertainment industries.
The next film, widely regarded as
the franchise’s final chapter and tentatively titled Fast X: Part 2 or Fast
Forever, is slated for release in April 2027. It’s expected to bring back many
familiar faces from the Fast & Furious universe alongside potential new
additions like Ronaldo.
If Ronaldo ultimately appears
onscreen, it would be his first major role in a feature film, expanding his
influence beyond the football pitch. The 40-year-old Al-Nassr star has already
made moves toward a future in entertainment, including launching his own
production company earlier this year.
Fans have reacted
enthusiastically online, with many praising the unexpected collaboration and
imagining how Ronaldo might fit into the high-octane world of Dominic Toretto
and his crew.
Universal Pictures and the Fast
& Furious production team have not yet confirmed Ronaldo’s official
casting, and further details about the role — including its size and narrative
importance are still emerging. Filming
has not yet started, and additional announcements are expected closer to the
production’s official launch.
For now, the franchise’s blend of
adrenaline-pumping action and star power continues to grow, promising Fast
& Furious’s finale will be one of its most talked-about chapters yet.
