(Pro tip: Cue up your rewatch of 2011’s “Fast Five.”) “You wanted to return to the streets of L.A., you wanted to return to racing and what that feels like, you wanted to return to the cars that made this franchise what it is,” Diesel told fans Thursday night at a “Fast X” event at L.A. “Today, I race to stop a bloodbath.” “Running used to be about winning.

“You built such a beautiful life filled with love and family,” our villain laments. And now, I’m gonna break yours, piece by piece.” Directed by “Dominic Toretto,” Aquaman says. “You’re about to learn all about fear.” He’s the son of vicious Brazilian drug king Hernan Reyes, whom, you’ll surely remember, our protagonists eliminated in Fast Five. That’s because a lot of lore piles up after a whopping nine films — Vin Diesel built a family amidst many missions and threats from enemies — but now, a past adversary is back for revenge. And he’s coming for everything Vin Diesel holds dear.

The penultimate 'Fast' movie is going to be just as ridiculous as you'd hope.

[longstanding beef](https://www.gq.com/story/vin-diesel-dwayne-the-rock-johnson-feud-timeline)–Fast X is peppered with A-lister both new—including Brie Larson and Moreno— and old, with the return of John Cena as Dom’s brother and Jason Statham as villain-turned-ally Deckard Shaw. As the trailer makes clear, Dante is related to Hernan Reyes, the drug kingpin played by Joaquim de Almeida in the series seminal 2011 entry Fast Five. Beginning with Rita Moreno, debuting in the franchise as Abuela Toretto, delivering an emotional speech about, you guessed it, family, the trailer introduces Jason Momoa’s Dante, who is poised to be Fast X’s big bad (alongside Charlize Theron’s Cipher).

On Friday, the trailer of Fast X was dropped. The movie is set to hit theaters on May 19 this year.

Dom Toretto and most of his family members return for the new movie of the franchise. Along with Larson and Momoa, the film also has franchise regulars, Jordana Brewster, The Fast and Furious saga is back. Back on the street for a car race, Toretto may have to “stop a bloodbath” this time. [Fast X](/topic/fast-x), looks to enthrall the fans.

The already massive Fast & Furious franchise is adding several new members to the family in Fast X. Here's what you need to know about Jason Momoa's villain ...

The fact that we don't know her name suggests it could be a big spoiler. In fact, it looks as though Rimes and his team will be arresting Dom's team at some point during the course of Fast X. "One is worse news than the other." Unsurprisingly, Momoa is playing the latest villain to threaten the Toretto clan. Universal's official description calls her a "rogue representative from the Agency." He doesn't want to kill Dom, but make him suffer in the same way Dante has suffered for the past 12 years.

And when you rewrite the third act, and the first act, the second act has to go. "I was on my way, and between the time I said yes and I arrived, the massive weight of what I just said yes to fell on my shoulders and I got really, really scared," said Leterrier. And obviously, since the third act was changing, I needed to change the first act. I read the script four times on the plane, and I said I had some ideas, and they said ‘great, because the whole third act is changing. Lin revitalised the series from a street racing syndicate series to James Bond for the YouTube generation by combining fast cars with set pieces that Tom Cruise would roll his eyes at due to their disputes with the laws of physics.

Just in time for the drop of a full throttle new trailer... It's one of the longest running, most dearly-cherished franchises in cinema history, but the.

You have to understand, the concept of family in the franchise – is real, and powerful – on screen and off. And it’s nice that you noticed about the humour in my filmography, I love mixing tones and genres, Jason Momoa helped with this — Chaos, darkness and levity. My first movie, with my main actor, we went to see a film at the end of a day’s shooting, and that movie was Fast and Furious, we loved it so much. That experience defined my life and his, and for both of us to now be in the franchise, and that I get to direct it. It’s one of the longest running, most dearly-cherished franchises in cinema history, but the Fast and Furious saga will be screeching to a halt very soon. We also have, fresh out of the Turetto family garage, the new trailer for Fast X, showing off a head-spinning collection of action sequences; returning key cast from both ends of the goodie-to-baddie continuum; and excitingly fresh faces in Jason Momoa and Brie Larson.

When asked about Dante’s connection to Hernan Reyes, Louis Leterrier confirmed that they were indeed “family,” clarifying that the former is the latter’s son. As the Fast X trailer showed, Dante was on hand to witness Dominic Toretto and his crew stealing the vault containing Hernan Reyes’ money, and he was the one driving the car carrying Reyes when the drug lord chased after the protagonists to get his loot back. [first trailer for Fast X](https://www.cinemablend.com/trailers/fast-x-trailer-connects-jason-momoa-to-fast-five-shows-the-dc-hero-blowing-stuff-up-from-his-harley) has finally arrived, and with it came some welcome information about [Jason Momoa’s villainous character, Dante](https://www.cinemablend.com/movies/jason-momoa-confirms-who-hes-playing-in-fast-and-furious-10). [Total Film](https://www.gamesradar.com/fast-10-trailer-breakdown-director-interview-louis-leterrier/), Louis Leterrier shared that Fast Five is his favorite Fast & Furious movie, which resulted him thinking ‘What if, what if, what if?' when he started working on this latest installment. The car chase ended with Dante, Reyes and the car’s other occupants being knocked off that bridge, and while Dante made it out alive, Reyes was soon after executed by Dwayne Johnson’s Luke Hobbs as retribution for killing his fellow DEA agents.

When Louis Leterrier signed on to replace Justin Lin at the last minute, he knew his writing process would have to be fast and furious.

And when you rewrite the third act, and the first act, the second act has to go. Leterrier quickly realized that the third act rewrite he agreed to was going to result in an entirely new script. “You see this mountain of a man, bald head, muscles,” he said. “I read the script four times on the plane, and I said I had some ideas, and they said, ‘Great, because the whole third act is changing. “I was literally on no sleep.

After Justin Lin left the franchise, Louis Leterrier took charge and had to work under pressure.

And when you rewrite the third act, and the first act, the second act has to go. Once again, the past will catch up with them in this new adventure that promises an explosive and emotional chapter before the end of the saga. And obviously, since the third act was changing, I needed to change the first act.
