Vin Diesel to Star in Action-Comedy Movie 'Muscle'

Vin Diesel is taking on an exciting new project!

The 53-year-old Fast & Furious actor is joining the cast of the new action-comedy Muscle, per Deadline.

Plot details are being kept under wraps and production is expected to shoot later this year.

STXfilms is set to produce the film, which will be directed by F. Gary Gray. Gary previously worked with Vin on 2017’s The Fate of the Furious and has also directed the 2015 movie Straight Outta Compton.

Adam Folgelson, the chairman of STXfilms Motion Picture Group, said in a statement, “There are few directors who can match Gary’s skill with character, comedy and big action, which is why he is one of the most accomplished and in-demand directors working today.”

“Over the years, Vin and I have worked together on a number of hit movies, and it’s a thrill to reteam Vin and Gary after their billion-dollar success on The Fate of the Furious. This will become one of the most eagerly anticipated films on our slate,” he added.

The trailer for the new Fast & Furious movie was released this month and it looks so intense!
