A “Fast and Furious” animated series by DreamWorks is headed to Netflix.
Based on the eight-film, multi-billion dollar franchise, the show will be catered toward kids and families, and run by the producers behind “Voltron Legendary Defender” and “All Hail King Julien,” according to Deadline.
In the animated series, Dom’s teenage cousin, Tony, tries to follow in his footsteps when he and his friends “are recruited by a government agency to infiltrate an elite racing league serving as a front for a nefarious crime organization bent on world domination.”
The producers of the film series — Vin Diesel, Neal Moritz and Chris Morgan — are also on board to executive produce the animated show.
Meanwhile, the film franchise is set to return for its ninth and tenth installments, with Justin Lin likely back in the director’s chair. Lin directed four of the films in the series beginning with “Tokyo Drift.”
