Summary
Fast and Furioushas had a few spinoffs already, but the one I wanted to see the most will probably never happen. WhileTokyo Driftis technically the third movie in the Fast Saga, it very much plays as a spinoff when compared to the films starring Paul Walker and Vin Diesel.Hobbs & ShawwasFast and Furious’ first proper spinoff movie, taking two established characters and placing them on a separate adventure that barely acknowledged the events of the Dominic Toretto films.Fast and Furiousalso has an animated TV spinoff –Spy Racers.
After his return inFast X’s post-credits scene, Dwayne Johnson announced a Hobbs spinoff movie that would bridge the gap between the tenth film and theupcomingFast & Furious 11. Not much else has been revealed about the project since. Likewise,Hobbs & Shaw 2still hasn’t happened. Between rumors of a female-ledFast and Furiousfilm and the uncertainty regarding Hobbs, the Fast Saga still hasn’t confirmed its future past the Dominic Toretto movies. That said, I believesome members of Toretto’s family are interesting enough to sustain their own spinoffs.
Fast & Furious Movies In Order: How (& Where) To Watch By Release Date & Chronologically
With 11 films spanning decades of prequels, sequels, and spin-offs, there are multiple ways fans can watch the Fast & Furious movies in order.
I’ve Always Wanted To See A Han & Gisele Spinoff Set Between Fast 5 & Fast 6
Han And Gisele Were Traveling Around The World After Fast Five
Han and Gisele met inFast Five, a movie in which all the different corners of the franchise converged. Dom and Brian put together a team that consisted of characters from all previous films, includingTokyo Drift’s Han andFast & Furious 4’s Gisele. The duo worked together during the heist in Rio, and by the end of the film, they were together.Fast Five’s ending montage included Han and Gisele driving into the sunset, with the newly formed couple making plans to go to Tokyo. All of that happened beforeTokyo Driftin theFast and Furioustimeline.
Han’s death was either shown or referenced in four different movies:Tokyo Drift,Fast & Furious 6,Furious 7, andF9.
Fast & Furious 6takes place mostly beforeTokyo Driftand stars with Han and Gisele on some kind of mission in Hong Kong when Toretto calls them for help. This scene implied that Gisele and Han had been traveling around the world and finding themselves in some action-packed adventures ever since the end ofFast Five, which always sounded to me like the perfect spinoff setup. I would have loved to see a Han and Gisele spinoff set betweenFast FiveandFast & Furious 6, the latter of which featured both of their deaths.
Fast X’s Ending Means That Han And Gisele Will Finally Reunite
Han And Gisele Have Both Returned From The Dead
Fast & Furious 6was not very kind to Gisele and Han. Gisele died toward the end of the film after falling from an airplane that was about to take off, whereas Han’sTokyo Driftdeath played in the post-credits scene. Given how popular those characters had become, plus the fact thatFast and Furiouswas failing to give Han justice, I assumed that a spinoff set betweenFast FiveandFast 6was the best way to honor them. However, the statuses of Han and Gisele have changed drastically since then.
For those who believed Han and Gisele deserved a better ending than what they got inFast & Furious 6, it should now finally happen inFast 11.
Both characters have returned from the dead and are now expected to reunite inFast & Furious11. Han was revealed to be alive inF9, with his return being one of the movie’s biggest selling points.Gisele showed up at the end ofFast Xand served as the film’s sequel hook alongside the Hobbs post-credits scene. For those who believed Han and Gisele deserved a better ending than what they got inFast & Furious 6, it should now finally happen inFast 11. It’s unclear whether they know the other is alive.
A Han & Gisele Spinoff Could Still Work (But It Seems Unlikely)
What Will Happen After Fast 11 Remains To Be Seen
A Han and Gisele spinoff could still work, though it would not make sense for it to be a prequel.Fast and Furioushas already struggled to makeTokyo Drift’s timeline work with the rest of the movies, especially with Sean, Earl Hu, and Twinkie returning inF9. A Han and Gisele story set afterFast Fivebut beforeFast & Furious 6would be aTokyo Driftprequel by default, making everything more complicated. Another option would be to have a Han and Gisele movie set betweenFast 6andF9, but this would depend on whether they knew the other was alive.

Assuming Gisele and Han make it out ofFast & Furious 11alive, I could see a spinoff film about them.Fast and Furious’ future afterFast 11is unclear, but the saga is no stranger to spinoffs as seen with Hobbs and Shaw. While Dominic Toretto’s family works better as a team, characters like Gisele and Han are arguably big enough to sustain their own movies. That said, afterFast X’s underwhelming box office, whether any other spinoffs will happen likely depends on howFast 11will perform.
