Fast X: 25 WTF Moments
25. The Fast Five Retcon
Fast X opens with a flashback to the events of Fast Five, replaying the iconic sequence where the Family drags a bank vault through the streets of Rio.
This new perspective retcons that set-piece to include Dante Reyes (a digitally de-aged Jason Momoa), the son of Fast Five's primary antagonist Hernan Reyes (Joaquim de Almeida).
We're shown a few brief interactions between father and son, while fleeting shots of Momoa are then spliced into footage from Fast Five, revealing that Dante was catastrophically injured when the vault was flung around.
While on one hand it's a mildly amusing way to add meaning to the events of Fast Five, on the other, it's a bold move to instantly remind fans of the best action sequence in the entire series - one this movie doesn't get close to touching.
