18 Crucial Questions For 2017's Most Anticipated Movies

17. Why Is Dom A Bad Guy? - The Fate Of The Furious

The Question: Dom (Vin Diesel) turns his back on his "family" to team up with criminal mastermind Cipher (Charlize Theron), but what exactly caused the hero's change of heart?

The Likely Answer: Cipher is surely blackmailing Dom into helping her in what's probably going to be the least-surprising plot twist of 2017.

The easy answer would be that Cipher has kidnapped Brian (Paul Walker), Mia (Jordana Brewser) and their children, and threatens to kill them if Dom doesn't do her bidding. So really, Dom was still operating in the interests of family.

Naturally, expect Dom to team up with the rest of the gang in the third act and wreak havoc on his new enemy.
