Fast & Furious TV series at Peacock gets the green light: Vin Diesel involved and release in 2028
Peacock has reportedly greenlit a Fast & Furious TV series. Vin Diesel is attached as executive producer, with a 2028 release planned.
- Vin Diesel is attached as executive producer; Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman are writing and co-running the series.
- The series is reportedly planned for 2028, the same year the final Fast & Furious film is also expected.
What happened
IGN reported, based on Deadline, that Peacock has approved a Fast & Furious TV series. That means the franchise is expanding beyond the big screen once again, after the brand has already been built out with additional projects set in the same world and featuring familiar characters. In the information provided, this is not framed as an early-stage rumor, but as a concrete greenlight for a television series at Peacock.
Vin Diesel is reportedly involved as an executive producer. That matters because Diesel has long been the face of the film series, and his name has also come up in earlier expansion plans for the franchise. Alongside Diesel, Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman are named as the series’ writers and co-runners. That gives the project a creative team already, even though no cast, episode count, or production start has been mentioned in the supplied information.
The planned premiere is set for 2028. The report also says that same year is when the final Fast & Furious film is expected. For now, that remains a development timeline rather than a separately confirmed release date from Peacock or Universal. So the report mainly makes clear that the TV series and the film franchise are meant to line up in the same period, but not that either date is fully locked in yet.
Timeline
May 2026 — Vin Diesel mentions the Fast & Furious TV show during NBCUniversal’s Upfront event, according to the cited report.
October 1, 2026 — IGN publishes the report that Peacock has greenlit the series and that Diesel is attached as executive producer; Mike Daniels and Wolfe Coleman are also named as writers and co-runners.
2028 — The series is reportedly planned to premiere, and the final Fast & Furious film is also expected that year, though the timing is presented as an expectation in the report.
Background
The Fast & Furious franchise has long expanded beyond the film series, and the report says there are four planned series within the same universe. Which other three projects those are is not specified in the supplied information. So while it is clear that more TV plans exist, it is not clear how far along those other projects are or which platform they may land on.
For now, the key confirmed information is that Peacock has reportedly greenlit the TV series and that Vin Diesel, Mike Daniels, and Wolfe Coleman are attached to the project. The report does not mention an official standalone announcement from Peacock or Universal, a trailer, or a concrete filming date. It also presents the 2028 plan as an expectation within development, not as a final release confirmation.
The broader context is that Fast & Furious has been more than just a film franchise for years. The series has already expanded into other media, and this TV show fits that pattern of further growth. At the same time, the information in this report is limited to the greenlight, the attached names, and the intended timing. Which of the other planned series are actually official, and how they relate to this Peacock series, remains unanswered in the supplied sources.
