]]>Based on the original idea by Lin and his fellow Fast X co-writer Dan Mazeau, Two For the Money will center on two career thieves (Theron and Craig) whose relationship spans the course of three big jobs. It’s Lin’s first film outside the Fast & Furious franchise since Star Trek Beyond in 2016.
Lin’s Perfect Storm Entertainment, Theron’s Denver & Delilah banner, and Jeff Kirschebaum and Joe Roth’s RK Films developed the project and eventually sold it to Apple Original Films after an intense bidding war.
The Oscar winner Theron previously collaborated with Lin on several films in the Fast & Furious series, most recently Fast X, which came out earlier this year. She’ll next appear in the sequel of her acclaimed Netflix superhero film The Old Guard.
After ending his run as James Bon in No Time To Die, Daniel Craig returned as Benoit Blanc in Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery. He’ll soon play the lead role in Luca Guadagnino’s historical drama Queer, based on William S. Burroughs’s novel of the same name.

]]>The Old Guard premiered in summer 2020 and followed a team of immortal mercenaries embarking on a dangerous revenge mission in an attempt to keep their identity a secret. The cast of the original film included Charlize Theron, KiKi Layne, Matthias Schoenaerts, Marwan Kenzari, Luca Marinelli, and Veronica Ngo, and they’re all expected to return for the sequel.
Gina Prince-Bythewood won’t return to direct the follow-up, but The Old Guard 2 will be in good hands with Victoria Mahoney. The up-and-coming filmmaker said she was genuinely blown away by the collective levels of talent, skill, and savvy involved in the first movie, and she’s honored to continue telling this story.
“I must’ve watched it over a hundred times, and as such, cannot communicate the true measure of my excitement–being invited on The Old Guard journey alongside ferocious badasses. Ever eager to continue pushing the genre for action-loving audiences,” said Mahoney in a statement.

]]>Cipher was introduced in The Fate of the Furious, the eighth entry in the franchise, as a cyberterrorist and criminal mastermind who forces Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) to work against his team. The character is prominently featured in the most recent movie, F9, as well.
Diesel himself confirmed the news about the Cipher-centered spinoff, telling Variety that he already told the writers to start working on the script. It is unclear whether the movie is a long-rumored female-led spinoff or a separate project.
If the feature ends up being made, it would be the second Fast and Furious spinoff to come to theaters. The first one, titled Hobbs & Shaw, was released in 2019 with Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham reprising their roles as Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw from the original movies. It ended up being a big box office hit, earning $760 million worldwide while receiving mostly positive reviews from the critics.
A sequel to Hobbs & Shaw is currently being planned, although the project is still in the early stages.
In the meantime, the main Fast and Furious film series is nearing its end. The story is expected to wrap up with two more movies, which will be shot back-to-back in early 2021.
