![]() ![]() ![]() Alas, the title is apparently only supposed to be read as F-9, followed by the also soap opera-sounding The Fast Saga subtitle (sorry, "Furious," maybe you'll regain credit billing in the tenth movie in 2023). The ninth entry is titled F9, and by the logic of the previous sequel, I would assume that was intended to stand for "Fff-nine," or likely "Fine," and at this point an implicit admission of the franchise just not even trying to be relatable to any kind of recognizable pattern or order or even coherency. We've had different adjectives favored (Fast Five, Furious 7) and even gone the route of number-related wordplay, like 2018's very soap opera-sounding The Fate of the Furious (spelled F8 in some incarnations). Has a multi-billion-dollar franchise ever had this much confusion and inconsistency with a name? The Fast and Furious saga, which is what we're now calling it I suppose, began twenty years ago in 2001 and has undergone all sorts of titular irregularity.
