Fast & Furious TV Show: 8 Characters Who Must Return
Screen Rant reports which past characters from the franchise could be ideal for the upcoming live-action series.
Fast & Furious has been a dominant movie franchise for 25 years, earning over $7 billion at the box office. A new live-action TV series is in development, though details remain limited, according to a report from Screen Rant. The outlet identifies eight characters from the films who deserve a spot in the show.
Isabel Neves
Daniela Melchior's Isabel is the sister of Elena Neves and appeared only once, in Fast X. She is a Brazilian street racer with connections to Dom. Screen Rant argues the TV series is the perfect chance to develop her properly, especially since Melchior has become a bigger star.
Queenie
Helen Mirren's character has been a supporting figure across several films. The outlet notes that Queenie is overdue for more screen time, and Mirren is already open to television work with her role in Mobland. Her comedic presence would be a welcome addition to the series.
Leon
Leon was part of Dom's original crew in the first film but hasn't been seen since a cameo in Fast Five and a flashback. Screen Rant says this O.G. character deserves a significant role so fans can learn more about him.
Suki
Devon Aoki's Suki appeared in 2 Fast 2 Furious and helped Brian and Roman evade police. She was a target on Dante's list in Fast X, suggesting she could appear in the final movie, but the outlet believes a TV appearance might be more fitting.
Tess
Brie Larson's Tess debuted in Fast X and played a significant role. Screen Rant suggests the TV show could establish Tess as the future of the franchise, allowing room for her character to develop beyond the main crew.
Sean Boswell
Lucas Black's Sean was the protagonist of Tokyo Drift but has had limited screen time since. The outlet says the TV series offers more room for character arcs, making Sean an ideal candidate for a deeper storyline.
Elle
Anna Sawai's Elle appeared in F9 as Han's adopted daughter but hasn't returned. Screen Rant argues she could be the start of a future generation of outlaws, and with Sawai's Emmy win, she could bring depth to the role.
Monica Fuentes
Eva Mendes' Monica debuted in 2 Fast 2 Furious and had a minor role in Fast Five. The outlet notes her history with Brian, Roman and Hobbs, plus her post-credits scene, makes her a fan favorite worth bringing back.
