It is about time for another entry in the Fast and Furious series. The 9th installment in Fast Saga would be called F9 – it would include the usual faces, with Vin Diesel as Dom along with Letty played by Michelle Rodriguez, along with the rest of the family. Besides that, there are plenty of new additions, such as WWE Superstar John Cena.
The trailer opens with Dom living on a farm with Letty and his son, given up on his racing ways. His retirement comes to a sudden halt, however, when a mysterious character played by John Cena arrives. The guy is Dom’s long lost blood-brother Jakob, who was hired by Cipher (Charlize Theron) to kill Dom. The usual racing shenanigans follow afterward. The spotlight of this movie, however, is Han’s return. After his apparent death in Fast & Furious 6, this apparent revival poses too many questions. How did he survive? Where was he? We would have to wait for the answers.
Not everyone is in this movie, as one prominent member of Dom’s crew, Luke Hobbs (played by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson) is not going to appear. Due to his previous feud with Vin Diesel during The Fate of The Furious, in which they refused to be filmed together, it is unlikely that Hobbs would be back to the main franchise anytime soon. The Rock’s star power, however, is enough to get him his own spinoff movie, Hobbs & Shaw, released a few months ago. It's unlikely that the new addition, John Cena, would be able to replace The Rock, as his acting ability is not nearly as good.
Jordana Brewster, who played Bryan’s wife in Furious 7, is also going to be back in this movie. This is a rather weird choice, as the actor who played Bryan, Paul Walker, has already died with his character getting written out of the story.
F9 would be released in India on May 22. Interested in more of our articles related to movies? Please check out this post for more information about the upcoming adaptation of Silent Hill and Fatal Frame.
