It was well - received by fans of the series and became one of the top gross movies of 2019 . Despite its success , the spinoff is the reasonableness that Statham wo n’t be inF9 .

Specifically , Jason Statham is n’t inFast & Furious 9because of programing conflicts . Inan interview with MTV News , Dwayne Johnson name thatF9was prepping for and start output while he and Statham were doing interviews and advancement forHobbs & Shaw . Specifically , he says “ As of now , we ’re not in Fast 9 because they ’re getting quick to start shoot . But who knows with Fast 10 and down the route , you never live . ” From the sound of that , Statham and Johnson missed out onF9because their committal toHobbs & Shawwouldn’t give up it .
Shaw ’s absence seizure fromF9sits weirdly with fans , many of whom have n’t let go of the fact that Han , a pet theatrical role , was killed without Shaw having to face judge . WithHan return in the trailer forF9 , it would seem like the perfect opportunity to bring that back up . Han is alive again and there ’s a fortune for Shaw to have to face what he ’s done . If there ’s a time and place to get repurchase , it would be here , but that may have to look forFast & Furious 10 , which Statham could still be a part of .
There ’s also the possibility of aHobbs & Shawsequel complicating things a bit . There ’s still no confirmation of one yet , but given its fiscal success , it seems like a no - brainer . Statham was a manufacturer for the firstHobbs & Shawmovie and would most likely continue as one for the sequel . This might get in the mode of him appearing in next installments of the main franchise , ask a nifty prison term dedication to be an actor and producer , along with the possibleness of further programing issues . This points to there being more of a futurity for Shaw in the spinoff world , though hopefully he can make an show in the final instalment of the primary serial publication . If nothing else , sports fan ( and producers)calling for Justice for Handemand it .
