Will There Be A Need For Speed 2?

The "Need for Speed" sequel rumors began circulating in 2015, with reports claiming that China Movie Channel, Jiaflix, 1905.com, and video game company Electronic Arts were collaborating to bring it to life (per IndieWire). Unfortunately, the project hasn't gained any momentum since that announcement, and if Hollywood history has taught us anything, it's that we shouldn't hold our breath for movies that are stuck in development hell. Then again, nothing is impossible either.

That being said, Aaron Paul seems willing to return for a "Need for Speed" sequel, but he has some requirements. While speaking to Collider back in 2016, he said that he'd step behind the wheel again if the material excited him. However, the actor also claimed that he'd only heard rumblings about the movie through the grapevine, suggesting that the project hadn't made any significant progress at the time.

"Need for Speed" is a popular video game series, so chances are it'll return to the screen in some form at a future date. Whether that's in the form of reboot or a sequel remains to be seen.
