io9 immediately reached out to Universal for comment or clarification and we had yet to hear back as of press time. It is of note though that Diesel is notorious for speaking out of turn and, well, since he’s 55 years old and the 11th movie hasn’t even begun filming yet, we aren’t sure if another one is in the cards. Especially since Fast X was purposefully planned as one-half of a story. Unless the first movie was conceived from the start as that first act of a three-part story, it would be pretty hard to rework it to add in a whole other act.

Which is why, until we hear otherwise from the studio paying the bill, we’re skeptical. But hey! Maybe Diesel is right and Fast X is followed not only by Fast Y, but Fast Z too.
Fast X opens in theaters May 19, we’ll have much more on it next week, including an interview with the director of Fast X and Fast part 11, Louis Leterrier.
