Summary
ContinuingFast and FuriousafterFast X , Part 2without Vin Diesel ’s Dominic Toretto is very difficult , and the franchise ’s first box office flop proves it . More than 20 age afterThe degenerate and the Furious(2001 ) , what is now refer to as the Fast Saga has gone through major changes . Whereas recentFast and Furiousfilms have all follow a standardized style , it took a while before the enfranchisement find out its identity element .
For example , Vin Diesel did not return for2 Fast 2 Furious , whereas Paul Walker was not inThe Fast and the angered : Tokyo Drift . It was only in 2009 , eight years after thefirstFast and Furiousmovie , that the saga resumed Dominic Toretto ’s account . Walker and Diesel ’s returns toFast and Furiousin 2009 right after the saga ’s 2006 flop was no coincidence , and they help the serial regain impulse . Even though theupcomingFast & Furious 11is bear to be the conclusion of the Fast Saga , Fast and Furiousmight have become too great to end .
Tokyo Drift Moved Away From Dom Toretto & Brian O’Connor (And Flopped)
Tokyo Drift is the lowest-grossing Fast & Furious movie
To this daytime , The Fast and the tempestuous : Tokyo Driftis the only truly standaloneFast and Furiousmovie with small to no connections to the principal movies . Of of course , Vin Diesel appears inTokyo Drift , but only in a very brief cameo that does not affect the movie ’s story at all . Likewise , whileTokyo Drift ’s position in theFast and Furioustimelinehas been retconned , the film was never intended to be part of a major storyline involving Han , Deckard Shaw , and Mr. Nobody . Instead , Tokyo Driftwas an attempt to rebootFast and Furiouswith all - newfangled characters and no quotation of late events .

Whereas2 tight 2 Furiousbrought Brian O’Conner back , Tokyo Drifttried to doFast and Furiouswithout either Brian or Dom . Interestingly , despite moving away from everything that had defined the franchise up until that power point , Tokyo Driftsurprisingly ferment . As a movie , Justin Lin ’s firstFast and Furiousfilm is very self-coloured , from the quality interaction to the action sequence . However , despite arguably being one of thebestFast and Furiousmovies , Tokyo Driftis the lowest - gross moving picture in the enfranchisement . The $ 157 million box office return on a $ 85 million budget meant thatFast & Furious 4would have to go back to Dom and Brian .
profligate and Furious ’ future pastFast XPart 2remains a mystery , but continuing without Dom would be very hard .
Continuing Fast & Furious Without Dominic Toretto Is Virtually Impossible
Fast & Furious might not have a future past Fast X, Part 2
The only other example of aFast and Furiousmovie that moves by from Dominic Toretto totally isHobbs & Shaw , which grossed $ 760 million on a $ 200 million budget . That order , whereasTokyo Driftintroduced an all - new set of characters , Hobbs & Shawfollowed two of the big name of the dealership – Dwayne Johnson ’s Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham ’s Deckard Shaw . Even so , Hobbs & Shaw2 never happened , andThe Rock is starring in a newFast and Furiousspinoffthat builds up fromFast X ’s conclusion . That is not to mention2 Fast 2 Furiouswhich , despite feature Paul Walker ’s Brian , was n’t a success .
Dom ’s death materialize in Fast & Furious 11 may have been spoiled already , with Vin Diesel compare the forthcoming movie to another freehanded dealership .
Tokyo Driftwas much good than2 Fast 2 Furious , plus more modern and brisk than whatHobbs & Shawwould achieve more than a 10 later . Still , it did not perform well at the box power and serves as the complete example of how difficult it is to continueFast and Furiouswithout Vin Diesel ’s Dominic Toretto . The most successfulFast and Furiousfilms are the 1 that rivet on Toretto and his home , fromFast & Furious(2009 ) reunite Dom and Brian to the more recentAvengers - esque films . riotous and enraged ’ future pastFast XPart 2remains a mystery , but go along without Dom would be very hard .
