Daniels recently executive produced Peacock’s PONIES and has writing credits on Sons of Anarchy and Shades of Blue, plus NBC’s upcoming The Rockford Files reboot. Coleman comes over from 9-1-1: Lone Star, where he was an executive producer, and also worked on Shades of Blue.

The order comes after Diesel and NBCUniversal confirmed in May that Peacock was developing a Fast & Furious series with Diesel. “Peacock is launching four shows in the Fast and the Furious universe,” Diesel said during a presentation at the time.

News of the series comes as the franchise celebrates its 25th anniversary. The Fast and the Furious was released on June 22, 2001, and since then it’s produced 11 films and grossed more than $7 billion at the global box office.

Fast Forever, the final film in the franchise is scheduled to arrive in theaters March 17, 2028.
