19 Biggest Story Reveals & Secrets
The new Fast and Furious 9 trailer is finally here, and it’s loaded with action, family, and big story reveals for what’s to come. The film stars an ensemble cast composed of series regulars like Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Sung Kang, Tyrese Gibson, Jordana Brewster, Ludacris, and Nathalie Emmanuel, along with newcomer John Cena. After extensive delays, F9: The Fast Saga is finally nearing its release on July 8, 2021.
What started as a simple street racing story has grown into one of the bombastic action franchises in history, and F9 looks like it will be continuing the series’ escalation of absurdity in fun new ways. Charlize Theron’s Cipher will return as the primary antagonist, this time aided by Dom and Mia Toretto’s estranged brother Jakob (Cena). Sung Kang’s Han is also returning from the dead in a move that’s been widely celebrated by fans.

F9’s new trailer is full of familiar faces, absurd action sequences, plot twists, and of course, Coronas. The family feud between Dom and Jakob takes centerstage, and it sounds like there’s a lot of untold history between the two that should be interesting to discover. Here are the biggest reveals from the Fast and Furious 9 trailer.
The Toretto House Is Being Rebuilt
Deckard Shaw blew up the Toretto house in Furious 7, but the first shot of the F9 trailer shows that it’s being rebuilt. It’s a great way to start the trailer because the backyard barbecues Dom and Mia would host have always been the heart of the franchise, and it’s nice to see those scenes come back. Since the Toretto family’s history is at the heart of F9 with the introduction of Jakob, bringing it all back to the family home is particularly meaningful this time around. A scene where Jakob returns to the house, whether as a villain or a redeemed hero, would be really impactful. Furthermore, Brian’s blue Skyline is in the same shot, which is curious since the car exploded in 2009’s Fast & Furious, unless this is a different version.
The Tokyo Drift Crew Is Part Of The Fast Family
The backyard barbecue scene also reveals that the Tokyo Drift crew has officially been made part of the Fast family. Previous trailer footage revealed that Sean Boswell (Lucas Black) and Earl (Jason Tobin) would be coming back, and the new trailer shows both of them alongside Twinkie (Bow Wow) at the Toretto house, sipping on Coronas. While it’s a shame that Nathalie Kelley’s Nella isn’t back, it’s nice to see most of the Tokyo Drift crew being properly admitted into the family. Though they don’t appear much in the actual action of the trailer, it seems like they’ll still have a notable role in the story.
Brian Is Still Out Of The Picture
An early shot in the F9 trailer shows Dom watching a home video of Brian playing with his son on the beach. Brian was effectively written out of the series at the end of Furious 7 after Paul Walker’s death, but the return of Mia in F9 could make that situation a little more complicated. In the end though, the fans understand why Brian is gone, and it shouldn’t be that hard to explain him out of the new movie while still paying respect to what Walker brought to the franchise.

Dom And Letty Haven’t Seen The Others For A While
The first Fast and Furious 9 trailer showed Dom, Letty, and their son Brian in what appeared to be a new home. The new trailer shows a bit more of their current living situation, revealing in a line from Roman (Gibson) that they’re pretty far-removed from the rest of the crew, at least geographically. It also seems that Dom and Letty haven’t seen the rest of the family in a while. Perhaps Dom and Letty are waiting for the old house to be fully rebuilt before moving back, or maybe Mia is the one leading the charge on the reconstruction.
F9 Has A Lot Of Magnets
A number of different bonkers action sequences are glimpsed in the F9 trailer, and most of them have something to do with…magnets? Cipher seems to be all about magnets now, using for everything from destroying cities to making cars fly. It looks like the Fast fam will get there hands on some of that advanced technology to fight back against Cipher in the end, which could create some wild and incredibly exciting chase scenes. Fast and Furious is always looking for ways to up the ante on its action, and F9 is no different.
Dom Turned His Back On His Brother
Family is at the core of the Fast and Furious franchise, and Jakob Toretto says a few things in the trailer suggesting that Dom isn’t quite as perfect in that area as previously thought. At one point, Jakob accuses Dom of turning his back on him. He also talks about how he was always in Dom’s shadow growing up, being the little brother. It’s likely that Dom and Jakob became estranged after the death of their father, especially since Dom’s subsequent assault on the man responsible landed him in jail. That time in prison may have been the final wedge between the two, though it will also be interesting to see how Mia fits into their dynamic. Whatever the details are, Dom definitely has some skeletons in his closet that he’ll have to contend with in F9.
Jakob Toretto Has His Own Cross Necklace
Dom’s cross necklace has become one of the Fast franchise’s signature symbols, and in the new F9 trailer, his brother Jakob is wearing one of his own. The implication is that the necklaces have something to do with their childhood – possibly gifts from their father – and that they could get some more thorough backstory in F9. Vin Diesel’s son will be playing a young Dom in the movie, which means there will be at least some flashback scenes to when he, Jakob and Mia were all kids. Could fans finally see Dom’s father on screen?

Dom Has A Classic Fast & Furious Weapon
Dominic Toretto doesn’t mess around when you come after his family – even if you are his family. The F9 trailer includes a shot of Dom taking aim with an old-school pump-action shotgun, harkening back to his use of the weapon in the very first film. The series has gotten so ridiculous over the years that ordinary guns don’t seem all that intimidating, but it’s a cool moment for fans to get a glimpse at the old Dom.
Jakob Has A Private Army
Mia says it herself at one point in the trailer – Jakob Toretto has a private army. The Fast crew has faced off with some truly powerful foes in the past, but Jakob’s force of elite soldiers could be the most dangerous opponents yet. Accordingly, the crew seems to have no problem killing bad guys in self-defense, and a lot of random henchmen get shot, tossed out of cars, and blown up in the new trailer.
The Crew Finds Han In Tokyo
Han’s resurrection still hasn’t been explained, but the new trailer does show how he reunites with the Fast family. During an action sequence in what appears to be Tokyo, Letty and other members of the crew are attacked, only to be saved by Han. If the city in the trailer is indeed Tokyo, that could mean Han has been hiding out there since his “death” in Tokyo Drift. With so many other Tokyo Drift characters also returning in Fast and Furious 9, it could be that they had something to do with his survival, intentionally or unintentionally. Either way, it should be fun to see Han reunite with Sean, Twinkie and Earl.
Mia Is Fully Back In Action
After an unfortunate absence in The Fate of the Furious, Jordana Brewster is back as Mia Toretto, and the new trailer shows her back in action with the rest of the family. Mia didn’t get to do as much in her last few F&F movies, but it looks like F9 will fix that in a big way. With the Toretto family’s past at the center of the new story, that makes a lot of sense, and it should be interesting to see how Mia and Jakob feel about each other after so many years.

Ramsey Learns To Drive
Resident hacker and tech specialist Ramsey (Emmanuel) hasn’t been behind the wheel much in past Fast and Furious films, but it looks like that’s going to change in F9. One scene in the trailer shows her hopping into a truck to join the action, joking at her own lack of skill combined to the rest of the crew. Ramsey has been a great addition to the family and has helped out hugely with her technical savvy, so it’s fun to see her getting in on some of the automotive action as well.
Magdalene Shaw Is Working With Dom
Neither Owen Shaw (Luke Evans) nor his brother Deckard (Jason Statham) have been confirmed for F9, but their mother Magdalene (Helen Mirren) is fully in the fray. In fact, it looks like she’s teaming up directly with Dom. The Shaws became hesitant allies to the Fast crew in The Fate of the Furious, so it’s not entirely surprising to see Dom and Magdalene on the same side. The actual reason why she’d hop back into a car to help him out, however, is unclear. Whatever her motivation, it’s great to see her behind the wheel.
The Cops Are After The Crew Again
After a few films on the right side of the law, the crew is back to smashing up cop cars in Fast and Furious 9. Kurt Russell’s Mr. Nobody character from the past two films, who recruited Dom and his team as secret government operatives, doesn’t seem to be in the new movie. That means the crew is operating solely on their own volition this time, which will inevitably bring them up against the police in one chase or another. Whether or not that conflict will have any lasting ramifications remains to be seen.
Dom Has A New Super-Charged Charger
Dom’s iconic black Charger is back in its latest of many different iterations, and this newest one might be the craziest yet. The magnet technology that seems to be ubiquitous in Fast and Furious 9 has apparently been integrated into the Charger as well, turning the muscle car into a sort of bomb on wheels. The trailer shows the Charger pulling in and blowing away other cars and all manner of metal objects in a truly ludicrous display.
Related: F9: Everything We Know About Han’s Fast & Furious Return
Han And His New Car Are Ready For Battle
Han’s iconic orange and black Mazda RX-7 sadly isn’t being resurrected along with its driver, but his new car is a great homage. Revealed in previous trailer footage, Han’s new Toyota Supra has the same paint scheme as his Tokyo Drift ride, and the trailer hints that it may be tricked out with some of F9’s new magnet tech. Han himself also seems like he’s spent his time away leveling up, as the trailer shows him brutally ice a number of bad guys with guns, hand-to-hand comment, and in one instance, kicking a man out of the back of a moving truck with a bomb strapped to him.
F9 Is An International Adventure
The numerous action sequences in the F9 trailer show a globetrotting adventure akin to the past few Fast and Furious films. Since Cipher is basically a Bond villain at this point, she could have a reason to be any number of places, and as long as Jakob is working for her, that’s where Dom will be too. The franchise has done a great job in the past of creating fresh action set pieces in exciting locations, and that trend is alive and well in F9.
Cipher Is Still The Main Villain
Though the core of the F9 story revolves around Dom, Jakob, and Mia, Cipher is still clearly the one pulling the strings. It’s highly likely that Jakob will be redeemed over the course of the film and join up the Fast family against Cipher, so it makes sense to keep her as the primary antagonist. With at least two more core Fast and Furious films on the horizon, Cipher could stick around even longer, or her story could wrap up at the end of F9.
F9 Has Flying Cars
As has been theorized, Fast and Furious 9 may be going to space. The final shot of the trailer shows Roman and Tej donning what appears to be makeshift astronaut suits in a rocket-powered flying car. They are then dropped from the plane carrying the car and hit the “gas,” appearing to fly. Fans have joked for years about the Fast and Furious series going to space, and it looks like F9 will at the very least get the crew one step closer. And it’s possible the idea came from Dom’s son, who’s seen playing with a toy and space shuttle at the start of the trailer.

Fast & Furious 11 Release Delay & Filming Start Date Confirmed By Director
Summary
Fast and Furious 11
is facing a release date delay to Summer 2026 due to strikes, with director Louis Leterrier confirming the sequel will not be hitting its April 4, 2025 date.
Leterrier also confirms that filming starts in Fall 2025 after finishing a horror movie in September.
The final installment in the
Fast Saga
reunites Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto for one last ride, while also leaving the door open for other spinoffs.
After facing multiple delays due to the 2023 SAG-AFTRA and Writers Guild of America strikes, Fast and Furious 11 is seeing its release date delayed. The next installment in the Vin Diesel-fronted franchise is expected to be the last mainline sequel, while development continues on the Dwayne Johnson-led spinoff Hobbs & Reyes, a mysterious standalone movie penned by Fast X’s Zach Dean and a potential female-led spinoff. While a filming start date was never confirmed, Universal had previously set the movie for an April 2025 release date.
During a recent interview with Collider at a CCXP MX panel, Louis Leterrier was asked for an update on Fast and Furious 11. The director went on to confirm that the final mainline installment in the action franchise will no longer be making its April 4, 2025 release date, instead now aiming for a Summer 2026 release window with the filming start date being set for this fall. Check out what Leterrier said below:
It’s happening. It’s happening very, very soon. I’m able to shoot a little horror movie this summer. I’m finishing my horror movie on September 15th, and I start Fast on September 16th.
Will Fast 11’s Multiple Delays Help Or Hurt The Sequel?
Much like the tenth film before it, Fast and Furious 11 has faced a few behind-the-scenes hardships in its road to getting off the ground, namely the delays stemming from the 2023 strikes. While the latest movie seems to have retained its core creative team in comparison to the shift in directors from franchise vet Justin Lin to Leterrier on Fast X after reported creative differences between the former and Diesel, this change didn’t seem to help much with the continued downward trend recent sequels have seen from critics. Check out how the franchise’s Rotten Tomatoes scores compare below:
Title RT Critical Score RT Audience Score The Fast and the Furious 54% 74% 2 Fast 2 Furious 37% 50% The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift 37% 69% Fast & Furious 28% 67% Fast Five 78% 83% Fast & Furious 6 71% 84% Furious 7 81% 82% The Fate of the Furious 67% 72% Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw 67% 88% F9: The Fast Saga 59% 82% Fast X 56% 84%
Even looking outside the Fast and Furious franchise, many movie sequels have found themselves hurt by various delays, be they from creative changes, general release shifts or other factors. The action genre in particular is one in which lengthier development periods can lead to diminishing returns, be it A Good Day to Die Hard, Rambo: Last Blood or Diesel’s own xXx: The Return of Xander Cage. While Fast and Furious 11 may only be getting pushed back by a year, the delay is nonetheless a concern that the final installment could find itself in trouble.
On the other hand, the longer wait for Fast and Furious 11 to close out the mainline series of movies could actually prove beneficial for the sequel. Though Leterrier may be busy with another project in the lead-up to filming the next installment, writers Oren Uziel and Christina Hodson should now have more than enough time to really look back at the script and ensure it learns from the critical missteps of recent installments to deliver a satisfying conclusion to the Dominic Toretto saga.

Vin Diesel Already Has His Perfect Fast & Furious Replacement Franchise With 51-Year-Old Remake
Summary
Vin Diesel’s dominance in Fast & Furious is ending, but Kojak could kick off a new action franchise for him.
Kojak’s reboot faces an uncertain future, but its similarity to Fast & Furious makes it a worthy project for Diesel.
Diesel’s potential shift from criminal racer to cop signifies a fresh start in a possible Fast & Furious-like series.
Vin Diesel’s days of playing Dominic Toretto are numbered, but the actor has already found his perfect Fast & Furious replacement. Diesel found a major breakout role in the early 2000s thanks to participating in The Fast and the Furious. The original 2001 street racing crime movie became the springboard for a sprawling franchise that has lasted for over two decades. The success of the Fast & Furious movies transformed Vin Diesel’s career, turning him into an even bigger star, especially in the action movie genre. But, Fast & Furious 11 is planned as the final chapter for him and the franchise.
The Fast & Furious franchise’s end will put Vin Diesel in an unfamiliar position of not having a major franchise to lean back on. This presents the actor with various options, such as changing the course of his career to pursue non-franchise roles. However, the more likely outcome is that Diesel will attempt to find a new IP that can replace Fast & Furious. He has had trouble in that regard recently, with franchises like xXx or Riddick running cold and Bloodshot and The Last Witch Hunter failing to launch franchises. There is another option for Diesel, though.

Kojak Can Be Vin Diesel’s New Action Crime Franchise After Fast & Furious
Diesel Has Been Developing The Reboot Since 2015
The impending conclusion of the Fast & Furious franchise means it is finally time for Vin Diesel’s Kojak reboot to get off the ground. The project was announced back in 2015 with Diesel re-teaming with Universal Pictures, the studio behind Fast & Furious, to develop a movie based on Kojak. The original TV series starred Telly Savalas as Theo Kokaj and ran for three seasons after debuting in 1973. The series revolves around Kojak, a New York detective known for being willing to go beyond the law and a love for cars and lollipops, and follows him as he investigates different cases.
Kojak was rebooted in 2005 as a TV show starring Ving Rhames, but it only ran for six episodes
Development on Vin Diesel’s Kojak movie has not been very active in the nine years since it was announced. However, it still maintains the base similarities to Fast & Furious, which makes the project a worthwhile endeavor for Diesel in terms of finding a new action franchise. He would now have another big action series about cars and crime, essentially making Kojak into a newer version of Fast & Furious. The irony here is that Diesel takes on the role of a cop after playing criminal racer Dominic Toretto.
Vin Diesel’s Involvement Can Morph Kojak Into A Major Action Franchise
Kojak Could Be A Fast & Furious Clone
Looking at the original TV show, Kojak might not necessarily project to be a major blockbuster action franchise akin to Fast & Furious. The TV series was relatively grounded and small due to the nature of its production. However, the fact that Diesel and Universal pinpointed this property as something they wanted to revive together is telling. The announcement of Kojak’s reboot came months after Furious 7 debuted in theaters and took the franchise to new heights at the box office and in terms of how ridiculously big the action and story could get.
It’s sometimes difficult to remember that Fast & Furious started off with a story about DVD thieves who were also street racers before Diesel helped turn it into something much bigger. With that experience and success already behind him, it would be understandable if a similar path was envisioned for Kojak. The series could then morph into a Fast & Furious clone, one that gives Vin Diesel a new franchise to headline and Universal a “fresh” action franchise to grow.

The Rock’s WWE Run Means Fast & Furious 11 Must Make 1 Major Hobbs Change
Summary
Hobbs from Fast & Furious 11 needs a gritty edge like The Rock’s WWE character to keep the franchise fresh and exciting.
The Rock’s time away from the Fast & Furious universe provides the perfect reason for Hobbs to return with a personal vendetta and a more savage attitude.
While Hobbs shouldn’t become a full-fledged villain in Fast & Furious 11, adding some edginess and dirty tricks could make his character more intriguing and dynamic.
Fast & Furious 11 must make one major Hobbs change after The Rock’s incredible WWE run. Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s WWE return surpassed his recent movies, with the actor creating some of the best work of his career. Having returned to a thunderous reception, The Rock was able to flip the crowd’s reception by becoming a heel and playing a major part in WrestleMania’s main events. The Rock hasn’t played a villain on screen for years, as even his depiction of Black Adam lent more into the character’s anti-hero side, which made his wrestling run all the more refreshing.
While his wrestling character may not perfectly translate into the Fast & Furious universe, there is one aspect of The Rock’s WWE run that the franchise should attempt to implement. After debuting in Fast Five, The Rock’s best Fast & Furious scenes helped contribute to the movie series becoming so popular, with Luke Hobbs becoming an instrumental part of the story. He was even given his own spinoff alongside Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) and is set to get a solo movie in the future. Despite this, Hobbs would still benefit from adding one key aspect of The Rock’s WWE run.
The Rock’s WWE Run Proves Fast & Furious 11 Needs To Give Hobbs More Of An Edge
Fast & Furious Would Benefit From Hobbs Adopting Some Of The Rock’s WWE Tendancies
Given how electrifying The Rock’s recent WWE run was, there is no doubt Fast & Furious 11 needs to give Hobbs more of an edge. Although the character has had his more serious moments, like most of the Fast & Furious cast, Hobbs tends to mix action with comedy. Hobbs and Shaw are supposed to be two of the more stoic heroes, yet they are constantly at each other’s throats and cracking jokes to help maintain the franchise’s lighthearted core. However, giving Hobbs a grittier side would help the character thrive upon his return.
The Rock’s Fast & Furious return may redeem Fast X’s box office, but the character needs to come back stronger than ever. By allowing him to be more ruthless, he can still maintain some elements of comedy but also become more interesting in the process. Johnson proved that despite being a detestable heel, he was still as hilarious as ever during his recent WWE tenure. This proves that he can maintain Fast & Furious’ tone and humorous style while being more layered; therefore, Hobbs adopting some of The Rock’s WWE characteristics could make him even more entertaining.
Fast & Furious Already Has A Reason For Hobbs To Be More Savage
Hobbs Has Been Away From The Franchise For Several Years
Making a major change to Hobbs’ character could be tough to explain, but Fast & Furious 11 already has a great reason to make him more savage. His four-year absence from the franchise gives him a perfect excuse to come back with a vengeance and potentially have a personal attachment to Fast & Furious 11’s villains. Hobbs’ time away from the main story could be explained through a connection to Fast X’s secondary villain, Aimes. Aimes’ villain twist in Fast X was well executed and suggests he’ll be around for the sequel, which is the perfect reason to bring back Hobbs.
Having a more personal story with one of the villains could allow Hobbs to continue his great quips and one-liners, but it would also give him more of an edge.
Fast X never explained why he’s back, but having a personal vendetta against Aimes could be an intriguing reason. Given Dom and Dante are the focal point of the franchise’s conclusion, Hobbs returning to take down Aimes would avoid overshadowing the main story while still giving him an interesting role. Having a personal story with one of the villains could allow Hobbs to continue his great quips and one-liners, while also giving him more of an edge. This provides The Rock with the perfect reason to implement some of his heel traits while still portraying a morally good hero.

Why Fast & Furious Can’t Bring The Rock Back As A Villain
Hobbs Already Appeared As An Antagonist In Fast Five
Custom image by Debanjana Chowdhury
Although The Rock’s villainous tendencies worked well in the WWE, Fast & Furious can’t bring him back as an antagonist. Johnson already played the main villain of Fast Five, as Hobbs was originally an enemy of Dom and his crew before becoming an ally. Hobbs’ role in Fast Five was one of his best, but despite being the main antagonist, he always had a level of integrity. Dropping all of this to make him a villain in the final movie would be completely unnecessary, especially as the franchise needs him to remain a hero for his spinoff.
Fast & Furious 11 may end the main story, but The Rock will be part of the franchise beyond this, and altering his character so drastically wouldn’t make any sense. Instead, adding some extra edge to his character would have the same effect and would avoid stealing the thunder from Dante and Aimes. Although Fast & Furious 11 shouldn’t make him a villain, the film can still allow Hobbs to play dirty and pull some cheap tricks in order to show a grittier side, while letting him taunt his enemies when he inevitably helps save the day.
Fast & Furious 11
is scheduled to be released in theaters on April 4, 2025.
