The Fast and Furious saga: A chronological viewing guide. From humble street racing beginnings to global blockbuster status, the Fast and Furious franchise boasts a massive box office success of nearly $2 billion USD. However, its complex narrative across twelve films (nine main entries, one spin-off, and two shorts) can be tricky to navigate. This guide provides the optimal chronological viewing order, ensuring you don't miss a beat of the high-octane action. A separate list detailing release order is included for alternative viewing preferences. The animated series, Fast & Furious: Spy Racers, is omitted due to its minimal impact on the main storyline.
