Most are centered around Dominic Toretto or Brian O’Conner. These are, as it stands going into Fast X, the core members of the Fast Family. Like the cars, the rules are a bit fast and loose. A couple of them even have the same traits. Or sometimes they have two skills, or two quirks. Namely, they all have two traits: a skill and a quirk. They’re a single multi-ethnic unit where no one really has a story of their own, but everyone has something to offer. Everyone else is kinda just there to support him. Making the Fast and Furious films about a sprawling found family has proven to be a boon to the films’ writers, as they have decided this means that the movies can mostly be about one guy - Toretto. Ever since then, the franchise stewards have decided that the movies are About That. Why are they family? As far as I can tell, it’s because Vin Diesel, as Dominic Toretto, says “I don’t got friends. This extends to the core cast of characters, dubbed the Fast Family. The earlier movies have been run through the Hollywood chop shop and stripped for parts, and a modestly budgeted street-level action film about drag-racing thieves has effectively been rebuilt as a series of bombastic superhero films with cars more kitted out than Iron Man. The 22-year journey from The Fast and the Furious to Fast X notoriously does not follow a clean arc, or even a logical one. There are families you are born into, there are families you find, and there are families that you assemble from three barely related 2000s films because they have incredible franchise potential.
