Fast Five Legacy Trailer Introduces Dwayne Johnson to Fast & Furious

The Fast & Furious franchise continues to celebrate its history during the lead-up to the debut of the Fast X trailer arriving on February 10, and now Fast Five receives the legacy treatment.

The latest “Legacy Trailer” for the Fast & Furious franchise features 2011’s Fast Five, which was directed by Justin Lin. It is particularly notable for introducing Dwayne Johnson’s Luke Hobbs into the mix. The plot sees Vin Diesel and the rest of the crew heading down to Rio in order to pull off a $100 million heist. Gal Gadot’s Gisele Yashar was also introduced in the film.

Check out the legacy Fast Five trailer below:

Fast X is being directed by Transporter director Louis Leterrier, who took over the role from Justin Lin after Lin suddenly exited the project due to creative differences. The film is written by Lin and Dan Mazeau, with Lin still attached as a producer.

Diesel, Tyrese Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Ludacris, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, and Scott Eastwood will reprise their respective roles in the film. The tenth installment will also feature the additions of franchise newcomers Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Daniela Melchior (The Suicide Squad), Brie Larson (Captain Marvel), and Alan Ritchson (Reacher), with Momoa expected to portray the antagonist.

Based on the characters created by Gary Scott Thompson, the latest installment takes the family around the globe from London to Tokyo, from Central America to Edinburgh, and from a secret bunker in Azerbaijan to the teeming streets of Tbilisi. Along the way, old friends will be resurrected, old foes will return, history will be rewritten, and the true meaning of family will be tested like never before.
