What Your Favorite Character Says About You

After the detailed Super Bowl trailer, there is a lot of hope that F9 will drop in May as scheduled. The Fast & Furious franchise has become one of the most addictive Hollywood offerings in recent times. With a new villain—who also happens to be Dom’s ‘brother’— fans are eager to see what happens next.

So far, there hasn’t been a major miss in terms of character introductions. Every new petrolhead or villain that has joined the franchise has appealed to fans. The characters that were there from the early films haven’t seen a drop in form either. Everyone is still as intriguing as they have ever been. However, that’s not to say there aren’t some that are favored more than others. But what is it that draws fans to them?

Dominic “Dom” Toretto

Dom in Fast & Furious

Dom is the real definition of career growth. He moves from engaging in illegal street racing to conducting multi-million dollar heists across the world. He is aggressive and fearless. Dom would do anything for both his immediate family and his friends, who he also refers to as ‘family.’ When Cipher kidnaps his son, he does everything to get him back.
Family and friends mean everything to every Dom admirer. If you love the main protagonist the most, you likely have a strong bond with those close to you. You hate growing alone, hence why you always share your opportunities with them. You are not only hardworking but you have also figured out how to keep achieving more in life.

Luke Hobbs

Dwayne Johnson as Hobbs in Fast and Furious 7

It can be argued that the introduction of Luke Hobbs is what hurtled the Fast & Furious movies into the big leagues of Hollywood franchises. The former DSS agent starts as Dom’s enemy. He hunts him down but eventually realizes that the man is too smart to hate, so he begins working with him. Hobbs works with Dom’s crew in apprehending Owen and Deckard Shaw. He later bonds with Deckard and works with him too.
If Hobbs is your guy, you have the ability to turn enemies into friends very easily. No grudge ever lasts long for you. People probably identify you as a tough person. Despite your penchant for throwing yourself in dangerous situations and healing quite quickly, you are generally a nice person.

Roman Pierce

Roman steps out of his Koenigsegg CCX-R in Fast Five

Roman is known for being skeptical and hesitant. He almost backs out of the Rio heist before hearing that the payoff is $100 million. He is also been reluctant to do dangerous tasks like jumping out of planes. On the brighter side, he is a fun-loving guy who works hard and plays hard. He’s been seen partying in private jets after heists and purchasing cars that no one else has.

If your favorite is Roman, you are probably a little hesitant and need convincing to get on board with the more adventurous things in life (even if they are actually a benefit to you). There is a chance that other people find you hilarious too as Roman always stands out as the joker of Dom’s crew.

Deckard Shaw

Deckard Shaw in Fast & Furious

Deckard morphs from villain to hero, which is commendable. Apart from the fact that he can babysit while engaging in a gunfight, Deckard has many other admirable qualities. Unlike Brixton Lore and Owen, he is a man of honor. He refused to work for the terrorist organization Eteon. He also refused Cipher’s offer to build the Nightshade.
If you like Deckard, you care a lot about your family. The character has been shown to have great relationships with his mother, brother, and sister. You can cause plenty of destruction too when you feel aggrieved but you are not necessarily evil. In fact, you are repulsed by evil people. Most importantly, you are not resistant to change and making yourself a better person.

Mia Toretto

Mia Toretto in Fast and Furious

Dom and Brian have a habit of leaping before they look. Luckily, they have Mia to always remind them to tone it down. For example, she begs Dom to stop fighting Hobbs in Fast Five. Her driving, intelligence, and surveillance skills become evident during the Rio heist. Mia’s loving nature is further seen when she protects Jack and Elena by offering herself to Shaw’s henchmen.
If Mia is the best in your book, one can bet that you are the caring type too. You don’t let your loved ones go down paths of self-destruction as you watch. To top that, you are always ready to trade your self-comfort so that others can benefit. You are not one to just sit and watch others have all the fun either. You are more than glad to jump into the action… as long as it’s safe.

Brian O’Connor

Fast and Furious Pail Walker as Brian

Brian abandons his work in law enforcement twice to engage in criminal activities. He first leaves the LAPD then leaves the FBI. Brian enjoys putting himself in extreme danger. This is evident throughout the franchise, with good examples being the Carter Verone boat chase and the train chase while going after Hernan Reyes’s chip.
RELATED: Every Fast & Furious Movie, Ranked By Fastness & Furiousness
Love Brian? Your adoration translates to you being a thrill seeker. You find it fun to break rules rather than live by them. Doing nice things tends to bore you, so you always find yourself seeking more exciting and dangerous activities.

Han Seoul-Oh

Sung Kang as Han in Fast And Furious Tokyo Drift

Han can tell that Gisele is ex-Mossad just by watching how she holds a gun. He also seems to wear his heart on his sleeve as the audience can see that he falls in love quite easily. Despite only knowing Giselle for a short while, he suggests that they move in together and start a family. His decision to become a member of Dom’s crew simply stems from the fact that he admires the man.
If you love Han, you are the type of person to have role models with who you would never hesitate to team up if need be. You are a firm believer in love too. Losing lovers devastates as is the case for Han when Gisele dies. Your observational skills are remarkable as well, making you able to see things that others don’t.

Letty Ortiz

F9

“Nobody makes me do anything I don’t want to.” This quote from Letty to Brian O’Connor sums up her personality. Even while working for Owen Shaw, Letty never forgets her true family. And when Don gets blackmailed by Cipher and begins working for her, she doesn’t give up on him. Unlike everyone else, she believes he will be back to his former self.
Letty admirers are loving by nature. They make great partners because they never give up on their partners even when these partners are on a downward spiral. They are brave and confrontational too, not being able to stand being demeaned by anyone.

Tej Parker

Tej is an underrated superhuman. He can race, he can fix cars and he can hack computers. While learning all those skills, he somehow found time to work out and stay in shape. He prefers cars to romantic partners, saying: “Cars don’t take half of your wealth when you part ways.”

Any Tej fan is likely to be humble and reserved. Your love for the character means you are a low-key genius. Nothing is too hard for you to do, thanks to your high IQ. In line with how Tej goes back to his garage, even after mega heists instead of celebrating like his associates, one can assume that you don’t like the high-maintenance lifestyle and prefer to have a simple and straight-forward life.

Mr. Nobody

Mr. Nobody talking to someone in Fast & Furious.

Mr. Nobody is actually somebody. Somebody big, but he chooses to hide his real name. The government agent allows Dom to use the God’s Eye program, despite Dom thinking he’d turn his back on him. He also bonds with Dom over beer and is friendly to most of the crew members. Age hasn’t limited his fighting skills either, as seen during the gunfight with Jakande’s men.
Being a Mr. Nobody fan means you are secretive. You would prefer that people know only what they need to know. You are a friendly person who keeps their word hence people developed trust in you very easily.

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.

2:34 Image 147 Related Predicting The Ending Of All 13 Fast & Furious Characters In Fast 11 The Fast Saga is set to conclude with Fast & Furious 11 – or Fast X 2 – but how will Dom Toretto and his family’s stories come to a definitive end?

Why Fast & Furious Can’t Bring The Rock Back As A Villain
Hobbs Already Appeared As An Antagonist In Fast Five
A custom image featuring Dwayne Johnson as Luke Hobbs in the Fast and Furious movies 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.
