A new Fast X video previews the return of John Cena as Jakob Toretto, the brother of Vin Diesel‘s Dominic Toretto, ahead of the film’s release in theaters on May 19, 2023.

Cena, who originally appeared in 2021’s F9, is set to return. In a video teasing his return, he called it “an honor” to be part of “the mythology” that is the Fast & Furious franchise. He also teased the upcoming film, calling it even bigger and “unfamiliar territory” for the “Fast mythology.”
