WMG / The Fast and the Furious

Go To

The final movie in the franchise will be called The Last of the Furious
  • Because why not?
  • Perhaps written in all caps with the I and O in "FURIOUS" replaced by a 1 and a 0?
    • Jossed. The 10th film wasn't the final one and was called Fast X. This troper could see it being something similar, though, like the R and the I being stylistically entwined together to look kind of like an 11.
  • Fasten the Furious.

As an alternative to the above, the final movie in the franchise will be called something like The Fast and the Furious: Ride or Die.
  • Going back to the franchise's full, original title for the final movie would be a nice, thematic touch. Combine that with the subtitle format that Toyko Drift had but using one of the franchise's well known catchphrases, it would be the perfect sort of title for a final sendoff.

Either Steve Austin or Hulk Hogan will turn up either as Deckard Shaw's Dragon.
  • Given the casting announcement it will be more likely Tony Jaa will be Deckard Shaw's Dragon.
    • Jossed. Tony Jaa 's character works for a mercenary company that Torreto and company cross paths with. Kurt Russel's character is an ally of the good guys.

Deckard Shaw was behind Johnny Tran.

Brian will be killed off in 7
  • Given Paul Walker's untimely death, and because he was still in the middle of filming, it may be rewritten to have him killed off. Not to mention that Deckard Shaw's hunting them and he's already gotten Han, who would be next?
    • At least partially jossed, as while Brian is being written off, he'll be retired, not dead.

8 and 9 will be about Sean.

Sean and a cousin of Brian's (played by Paul's brother) earning their way in Toretto's crew (or whatever's left of them after 7, depending on how much of his way Deckard has) will be a significant side plot with 8 and 9.

Deckard Shaw had someone on the CIA feeding him intel
  • Deckard had enough knowledge about the plan to rescue Ramsey that he was able to ambush their ambush. It is absolutely impossible that he could've done that without someone in the CIA briefing him on the team's demented plan.
    • Seconded. Chances are this same person will also help him escape from the high security prison he is in by the end of the seventh movie, too, as it's obviously set to be a Sequel Hook.

Brian will be mentioned or have a brief cameo (as The Other Darrin) in the sequel(s).
A member of the team might try to call Brian for information, but Mia got the phone saying that Brian is playing with their child. We'll likely see him in the background with his back facing us since he'll be played by another actor. This would be the only scene Brian and Mia will appear in, much like the same way Al from Die Hard appearing in Die Hard 2 and Captain Diel from Rush Hour appearing in a deleted scene of Rush Hour 2.

The films take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Mama Shaw
will personally kill Cipher herself in either 9 or 10. Cipher was the reason for Owen's involvement in 6, and Mama Shaw likely has a personal vendetta against the woman now that she has learned about her.This could also be an interesting allusion to The Italian Job, a film that starred both Charlize and Jason. In that one, the Edward Norton villain was dragged off to be killed by another dangerous character due to crossing him. Cipher's death scene will mirror this as a bit of a knowing wink to the audience. Fitting also in the fact, that both Fate and Italian Job are directed by the same man.

Magic exists, but no one knows about it and can only be channeled in specific ways for those who use it. Dom and the others can channel magic through cars.
How else can they defy the laws of physics and prove to be completely unstoppable whenever they are behind the wheel?

Little Nobody is Andrew Foster from the 2017 movie Overdrive before he became an agent.
  • He's played by Scott Eastwood, he has driving skills and was in a situation not unlike something you would see in the Fast and Furious franchise. He even wanted to retire as a thief for priceless classic cars.

Fast & Furious 9 would address Han.
Many fans seemed unhappy that the team would let Deckard eat with them because he was the one who killed Han and they even do the whole #JusticeForHan thing! F. Gary Gray support #JusticeForHan and both Vin Diesel & Chris Morgan say they're NOT done with Han.

If they make a F&F movie IN SPACE!...
...Don would meet his long lost twin brother, Richard B. Riddick.

Dom's Charger is protected by his late father's spirit.

Think about it— every time Dom's 1970 Dodge Charger R/T gets f-ed up, it comes back in the next film back to normal (Seriously; it was blown up in a tunnel and yet it returned in mint condition at the end of the fourth film). And every time Dom gets into a crash in his Charger (or any Charger, like the one used to pull the vault in the fifth film, the one modified for off-road, and the Ice Charger) he escapes 95% percent of the time unscathed.

Brian will be mentioned in the Universal Studios Florida version of the Supercharged ride.
With Mia set to appear, it's possible that she might be helping out the team in his place while he continues his retirement with their kids. Maybe even commenting at the end of the ride that she's off to go back to them.

Han will either forgive Deckard for "killing" him. Or spend the entire film making him THINK he hasn't, only to ultimately do so at the end. Thus allowing the team to do the same.
With Han's Unexplained Recovery being revealed in the first trailer for F9 it seems logical. Deckard will attempt to apologize, and Han will either immediately forgive him, the film messing with him OR actually not forgive him. Near the end of the film, Deckard could save Han's life, thereby essentially canceling out that he tried to kill him. If Han hasn't forgiven him, it will lead to him legitimately doing so. Allowing the rest of the crew to do so as well. Given what we know of Han, it wouldn't be out of character for him to forgive him instantly or mess with him. He seems too laid back to hold a grudge.

Jacob (John Cena's character in 9) will pull a Heel–Face Turn.
With the revelation that he's Dom's brother it seems likely. He claims to have spent his entire life trying to be better than Dom. Something will happen, something something family, Cypher pisses him off, he becomes a good guy and joins the crew.

Related to the above, Letty and Dom will die.
The opening and a lot of scenes from the trailer seem to hint at that. Maybe Dom's death is what leads to Jacob's Heel–Face Turn?

At the very least Dom, and maybe his crew are all unaware technopaths
That's why everything Dom and crew do with a car that wouldn't normally work, works, like the "cuban No S" stunt Dom pulls, that in reality, would just make the car go boom and charbroil Dom.

Cipher was a client of the Black Hat Organization.

The films will eventually crossover with another Universal Pictures property.
As the films are increasingly and shamelessly absurd, what with them having introduced superhumans in Hobbs & Shaw, it probably wouldn't be that much of a stretch to have them crossover with Jurassic Park, or even have the DeLorean make an appearance. Hell, the Barden Bellas can show up and join the Family for an adventure.

Gisele is still alive.
Considering what Letty and Han came back from, the only reason not to bring back Gisele is that Gal Gadot is too busy being Wonder Woman.

The female-focused spinoff will be called Fast Women
Come on, the pun is right there!

The plot of the last two movies

Follow this link

The last film in the franchise will involve time travel.
At this point, where else can the film series go except back into the past with the group using time travel? They already used the Recycled In Space bit.

The 5th movie and after are stories Dom writes in Jail.

Dom uses his own crew, plus people Brian told him about, in a series of best selling adventure/spy stories he wrote to fill time. Letty is actually dead unfortunately, as is Han. Brian and Mia are raising a kid who visits sometimes, which Dom worked into the stories. Luke Hobbs is based on one of the guards or policemen Dom ran into during the trial or imprisonment.

This is why the movies changed genre so much, and characters show skills they would not be expected to have. Dom will end the main series when he gets released from prison, but will write some spinoffs like Hobbs and Shaw that are based on popular characters.

Mr. Nobody's disappearance is in some way due to Aimes's plan to co-opt the Agency
The loss of the Agency's leader created a vacancy at the top and allowed Aimes to take over in cooperation with Dante. This was part of a plan by either Mr. Nobody or Aimes working against the other.
  • Mr. Nobody, knowing that he is being undermined by Aimes, uses the plane crash to disappear so he can gather resources to deal with the rogue Agency.
  • Aimes, wanting to be fully in control of the Agency, either used the events of 9 or helped engineer them so he could put Mr. Nobody in a position where he could be eliminated.
