Thanks to the coronavirus pandemic, you won’t get to see Dominic Toretto and his high-speed crew back on the big screen andFast and Furious 9until next year. But thankfully, Netflix has a consolation prize in the form of new adventures with Dom’s cousin, Tony Torretto, in the second season of the animated seriesFast and Furious: Spy Racers. Unfortunately, it does not featureVin Diesel’s recently released single. What’s that? You haven’t heard that Vin Diesel was making music? Prepare yourself.
Fast and Furious: Spy Racers Season 2 Trailer
This time the Spy Racers are heading to Rio to track down a McGuffin weapon with the potential to unleash chaos on the world. Despite being an animated series, the action in this series is no more exaggerated than what we see in the movie. The teenage team even uses one of Dom’s old tricks of parachuting cars from a cargo plane, though they don’t handle it quite as smoothly. But that’s not all.
This season ofFast and Furious: Spy Racersalso finds Ms. Nowhere’s latest recruit and formidable fellow racer, Layla Gray, missing in action during an undercover mission. So not only do they have to track her down, but they have to stop a sinister plot being set in motion by a nefarious crime organization using an elite racing league as a front for their plans for world domination. Yeah, sounds about right. And they even manage to actually say “spy racing” right at the beginning of the trailer.
The cast includesTyler Posey(Alone; Teen Wolf) as Tony Toretto,Charlet Chung(Overwatch, Chuck) as Echo,Luke Youngblood(Community) as Frostee Benson,Jorge Diaz(Jane the Virgin) as Cisco Renaldo,Camille Ramsey(American Vandal) as Layla Gray,Renée Elise Goldsberry(Hamilton Altered Carbon) as Ms. Nowhere, andAvrielle Corti(Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts) as Rafaela.
Fast and Furious: Spy Racersis executive produced by franchise producersNeal H. Moritz,Chris Morgan, and of course, Vin Diesel. But despite his involvement in the series, Diesel didn’t go out of his way to include his first single. He’s beenthreateningpromising to release his own music for a long time, and that moment has finally arrived. Diesel debuted the single onThe Kelly Clarkson Show. Reader, let me tell you, autotune has never worked so hard.
Vin Diesel’s album will drop next April, and we wouldn’t be surprised if one of this songs is featured on the soundtrack for Fast and Furious 9, due out in theaters onApril 2, 2021.
Otherwise,Fast and Furious: Spy Racersreturns for the second season on Netflix onOctober 9, 2020.
