Funnyman Ben Stiller is reportedly preparing to rev his engine after joining the cast of the next sequel in the Fast And Furious franchise.
According to the New York Post’s Page Six, the Meet the Parents star is due to shoot his scenes for F9 “soon”, although it will likely only be a small role as the action-adventure is set for release in May (2020).
Further details regarding Stiller’s alleged involvement have not been revealed, and representatives for both the actor and the Universal Pictures project have yet to comment.
If the casting news is true, he will join franchise stars Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, and Ludacris onscreen, as well as newcomer John Cena.
Helen Mirren and Charlize Theron will also feature, reprising their roles from 2017’s The Fate of the Furious.
