Alan Ritchson is having a banner year. From headlining Netflix's War Machine to reprising his role as Jack Reacher, the actor has been everywhere. But one of his most enduring projects is the 2023 action blockbuster Fast X, which has quietly become a streaming juggernaut.
Released in 2023, Fast X brought Ritchson into the high-octane world of the Fast & Furious franchise as Agent Aimes, alongside veterans like Vin Diesel and John Cena. The film also marked the return of Jason Statham's Deckard Shaw, adding another layer of star power to an already explosive cast.
Despite a hefty $340 million production budget, Fast X grossed over $700 million worldwide. But its real staying power has been on streaming. In 2026, the movie has been a constant presence in the top 10 on various platforms, racking up an impressive 300 consecutive days in the charts. This longevity has made it one of the most-watched films of the year on VOD and streaming services.
In the U.S., Fast X is currently available on Peacock, where it continues to attract new viewers. Globally, it has bounced between services, but its consistent popularity speaks to the enduring appeal of the franchise and its stars.
Ritchson's other projects have also been thriving. War Machine became one of Netflix's most-watched movies ever, with over 135 million views, and a sequel is already in the works. Meanwhile, Reacher has been renewed for not just one but two more seasons on Prime Video, a testament to its massive fanbase.
Looking ahead, the Fast & Furious saga is set to conclude with Fast Forever, the eleventh and final installment, scheduled for March 17, 2028. Directed by Louis Leterrier, the film will see the return of Statham and Dwayne Johnson, though it's unclear if Ritchson's Agent Aimes will be part of the finale.
For fans of top Netflix thrillers or unforgettable crime thriller openings, Fast X is a must-watch. And if you're looking for more action-packed entertainment, check out Prime Video's Alex Rider or Jake Gyllenhaal's Prisoners on Apple TV+.
With Fast Forever on the horizon, the franchise shows no signs of slowing down. Whether it's on the big screen or streaming, the Fast family continues to dominate.
