History Characters / TheFastAndTheFuriousAntagonists

* AxCrazy: Though more jovial and capable of actual human emotions (like love and even respect) than Cipher, he is no less dangerous as his impulse-control is just as nonexistent as her's. The temporary legal-braindeath that resulted from having a 50-tonne steel-safe smashed in his face and the two minutes of drowning that followed only served further warp his already twisted brain.

* BadassDriver: Natch.

* CulturedBadass: Dante is an enthusiast of classical Ballet, incorporating it into the madcap dancing of his bombastic theatrics, and outright citing the tragedy of ''Swan Lake'' as he is forcing Dom to choose which loved one to save from twin-focused sniper-fire.

* FoeYay: Regularly teases Dom with the sort of lines a teenage girl would use around her crush.
--> "No, you hang up first!"

* VillainRespect / WorthyOpponent: In spite of hating Dom and wanting to make his life a living hell, Dante takes every opportunity to show ''openly gleeful'' respect for Dominic's bravery, skill, honor and tenacity; in a roundabout manner, this is his twisted way of showing admiration for Dom as the kind of person he ''wished'' he could have been, if only he was born with a normal psyche, kinder father and a happier family.

* SissyVillain: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]], but still surprising given Jason Momoa's [[RatedMForManly other roles]]. He certainly has a flamboyant sense for style and is prominently seen wearing nail polish. He even does the toenails of a soldier he killed.

* VillainRespect / WorthyOpponent: In spite of hating Dom and wanting to make his life a living hell, Dante takes every opportunity to show ''openly gleeful'' respect Dominics' bravery, skill and tenacity; in a roundabout manner, this is his twisted way of showing admiration for Dom as the kind of person he ''wished'' he could have been, if only he was born with a normal psyche, kinder father and a happy family.

* ComicallySerious: Despite his serious attitude he has a knack fo rmaking silly remarks, like the above mentioned BadassBoast.

* CyberneticsEatYourSoul: Averted, he betrayed his country and sided with the villains before any upgrades. He personally defy this saying his upgrades make him more human, a step up in evolution.

* IgnoredExpert: The Director asks him to try to recruit Hobbs and Deckard. Brixton argues that is bad idea, but the Director insists anyways. Naturally Brixton is right.

* ArcVillain: Reyes is the main antagonist of ''Film/FastFive''. He is also the only antagonist in the ''Fast and Furious'' and ''Fate'' span not to have any affiliations with the Shaw brothers and [[spoiler: Cipher. That said, ''Film/FastX'' reveals he was in talks with a rogue agent of the Agency, tying the Reyes dynasty to the overarching storyline.]]

* BigBad: Of ''Fast X'', where he's taken control of Cipher's organization away from her and plots global devastation on a scale that even [[PragmaticVillainy Cipher]] considers to be absolute insanity.

* ArcVillain: Reyes is the main antagonist of ''Fast Five''. He is also the only antagonist in the ''Fast and Furious'' and ''Fate'' span not to have any affiliations with the Shaw brothers and [[spoiler: Cipher. That said, ''Fast X'' reveals he was in talks with a rogue agent of the Agency, tying the Reyes dynasty to the overarching storyline.]]

* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: Admit it - before making Dante the driver of the Volkswagen Touareg smashed into the ocean by the safe, you would think that anyone in that driver's seat would be crushed to death and be sent into a watery grave, not leave a window to swim back up on the surface.
* PracticallyJoker: A flamboyant, colourful villain who is always smiling, laughing and joking around even as he's causing mass death and destruction, and is opposed to a stoic hero associated with the colour black. Jason Momoa's performance has justifiably been compared to that of [[Film/TheDarkKnight Heath Ledger's Joker]].
* SissyVillain: Downplayed, but still surprising given Jason Momoa's [[RatedMForManly other roles]]. He certainly has a flamboyant sense for style and is prominently seen wearing nail polish. He even does the toenails of a soldier he killed.
* SoleSurvivor: The ''true'' survivor of the cartel going into ''Film/FastX'', having been knocked into the ocean by the flinging safe during Fast Five's bridge chase.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Dante could possibly be this as he is extremely flamboyant in style and mannerisms and he is fixated on Dom and making him miserable. But he also acts lecherous towards Elena's sister, blows her kisses and licks her across the face.

* AxCrazy: Though more jovial and capable of actual human emotions (like love and even respect) than Cipher, he is no less dangerous as his impulse-control is just as nonexistent as her's. The temporary legal-braindeath that resulted from having a 50-tonne steel-safe smashed in his face and the two minutes of drowning that followed only served to wipe ''all'' emotions save for maniacal joy from his already-twisted brain.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: In spite of being a diagnosed sociopath, who candidly admits Hernan was not a good father, he still loved the tyrant enough to seek vengeance for his death, as he was the ''only'' person to ''unconditionally'' love a monster like him for who he was, enough to haved bailed him out of each and every institution for each and every violent crime he was incarcerated for since ''childhood.'' With that sole chain of fatherly love snapped with Hernan's death, the beast within is now fully unleashed.

* AgentPeacock: Dante has a *lot* of theatric eccentrics when he conducts himself, but he's still a brawler, which downplays this trope.

* ArcVillain: Reyes is the main antagonist of ''Fast Five''. He is also the only antagonist in the ''Fast and Furious'' and ''Fate'' span not to have any affiliations with the Shaw brothers and [[spoiler: Cipher.]]

* AgentPeacock: Compared to Jason Momoa's previous roles, at least. Dante has a few theatric eccentrics when he conducts himself, but he's still a brawler, which downplays this trope.

* YouKilledMyFather: Blames Dom (even though it was Hobbs who killed him) for his father's death.

!!!'''Appearances:''' ''Film/{{F9}}'' | ''Film/FastX''

->''"You know the only good thing to come from Dad dying? If he hadn’t, I’d have spent my entire life in your shadow. And now you’re gonna spend the rest of yours living in mine."''

Dom and Mia's estranged brother. Described as a master thief, assassin and high-performance driver.
----
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Described as having always pushed himself to be faster, smarter and stronger than Dom.
* TheBigGuy: He's played by John Cena, who's slightly taller than and more ripped than Vin Diesel.
* BigLittleBrother: He is bigger and taller than his older brother, Dom.
* BlackSheep: Of the Toretto family.
* {{Bookends}}: Years ago, Dom told him to drive and never look back, as punishment for allowing their father to die. [[spoiler:At the end of ''[=F9=]'', Dom tells him to drive and never look back, not out of spite, but as a genuine advice, because he will face tough times ahead as a wanted terrorist.]]
* CainAndAbel: The Cain to Dom's Abel, having planned for some time to kill his older brother.
* CoDragons: Is Otto's right hand man alongside Sue, until his employer makes the bad decision to cross him.
* CoolUncle: [[spoiler: To his nephew Brian, Dom’s son, as of ''Fast X''. In the trailers, they can be seen riding together having a blast]].
* DarkSecret: [[spoiler:His father told him to sabotage his car to throw the race. He was heavily in debt and needed the money. He made Jakob swear to never tell Dom about this, which is why Jakob never contradicted Dom's argument.]]
* DragonInChief: Serves as the main muscle for Otto and does most of the legwork to the point where the two are almost [[BigBadDuumvirate of equal standing.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes:
** He and Mia are a lot more cordial and understanding with each other.
** Despite his resentment towards him Jakob was still upset by his father's death and honored his promise to not tell Dom the real circumstances behind it when doing so would have saved him alot of trouble.
* TheExile: After finding out that he had a hand in causing their father's death, Dom banished him from the Toretto residence. He lived with a family friend and stayed in touch with Mia for a year, but eventually took off and never looked back.
* TheHeavy: While Otto [[spoiler: [[HijackedByGanon and later Cipher]]]] serve as the [[BigBadDuumvirate primary threats]], Jakob is the physical conflict driver for the majority of the film [[spoiler: until his [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness betrayal]] and subsequential [[HeelFaceTurn defection]]]].
* HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:Otto is convinced by Cipher to betray Jakob, who is then saved by Mia and allowed to get away in a car by Dom, who has chosen to let go of his rage towards him. While driving away, he overhears from Dom that Dom is going to attempt a dangerous stunt to stop Otto's truck, so he comes back to help Dom.]]
* HeroicSacrifice:[[spoiler:Seemingly sacrifices his life so Dom can go after Dante and save Little B. Then again considering what kind of franchise this is, it's almost certain that he survived.]]
* HollywoodGenetics: Jakob's siblings Dom and Mia are AmbiguouslyBrown and played by mixed-race actors. John Cena, on the other hand, is very white, and has blue eyes in contrast to their brown. Since their father, Jack, is played by a brown-skinned Latino actor, the implication is that Jakob inherited his look from their unknown and unmentioned mother. This is lampshaded by Cipher, who, upon reading about the Toretto family's ancestry, is surprised to see that they have Nordic genes, and Queenie is shocked to learn Dom and Jakob are brothers.[[note]]As a side note, while Toretto is an Italian surname, of of the actors playing the Toretto siblings, only Cena has a confirmed Italian ancestry (Cena is an Italian surname).[[/note]]
* IJustWantToBeLoved: Buddy points out that all Jakob wanted was to have a family and friends who cared for him, especially after their father died, but [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Dom denied that when he banished him from home]].
* IllKillYou: Says so to [[spoiler:Otto, after he betrays him by freeing Cipher]].
* OlderHeroVsYoungerVillain: The Younger Villain opposite Dom's Older Hero, both in-character (where Jakob is Dom's little brother) and in terms of their actors (Cena is ten years younger than Diesel).
* PoorCommunicationKills: [[spoiler:It is revealed that Jakob helped Jack to throw the fateful race so the family could receive compensation, because the family was in a great debt. Jack told Jakob not to tell Dom under any circumstances, as he knew that Dom would object. Had he told him about this, a lot of the tragedies involving the brothers would not have happened.]]
* RedemptionEqualsAffliction: [[spoiler:He decides to switch sides and helps Dom bring down Cipher and Project Ares. However, this doesn't change the fact that he is still an international terrorist, which means he will face a rough life ahead. He only manages to share a small moment of understanding with Dom and Mia before driving away.]]
* RememberTheNewGuy: You'd ''think'' Dom having a super-criminal brother would have come up at some point before, but nope. [[spoiler:It's because Jakob and Dom were on terrible terms. Dom blamed Jakob for their father's death, even exiling him from the family, and Jakob never argued against this as Jack prohibits Jakob from speaking of it.]] Roman lampshades this, stating that he can't believe that he has known Dom for so long and yet never even heard that he has a brother, much less one who is a criminal.

* RememberTheNewGuy: Was not mentioned in any of the previous films.

* BigBad: Of the first film.
