Universal Pictures has dropped the first poster for Fast X, the first installment in the final chapter of the long-running, Vin Diesel-starring Fast and Furious franchise.
The release of the first poster for Fast X comes ahead of the release of the first trailer, which will debut with a flashy spot during Super Bowl LVII on February 12.

Given the expense of a Super Bowl slot, perhaps that’s part of the reason why the budget for the film is reportedly in the neighborhood of $340 million (losing its original director Justin Lin halfway through also didn’t help).
Fast X — which will be split into two parts and is set to conclude the Fast franchise (at least this iteration of it) — will hit theaters on May 19.
Given the intensity of the poster and the general meme culture that surrounds the wildly successful Fast franchise, movie fans had quite the reactions to the poster:

A lot of people have been having fun with both the subtitle and the prominence of Dom’s famed cross necklace:

There’s also unsurprisingly been some “Fast-ten your seatbelts gags”, too:
