"Fast & Furious 10": The plot
Dominic "Dom" Toretto has a problem. After he and his crew once relieved gangster boss Hernan Reyes (Joaquim de Almeida, 66) of a considerable sum of money in Rio de Janeiro and caused the drug lord's death, his son Dante Reyes swears revenge. The giant villain has been meticulously preparing for his mission for years. His aim is not only to defeat Dom, but also to destroy his family, which has grown over the course of nine films, in order to inflict maximum damage on the head of the family.
A wild chase around the planet begins. In the Italian capital Rome, for example, Dom must first make sure that Dante does not use a huge bomb to reduce the Vatican to rubble. After this explosive action kick-off, the journey continues to Los Angeles, London, Rio de Janeiro and even Antarctica.
These stars star in the tenth "Fast & Furious" installment
The ensemble of the action film franchise has grown enormously over the years. Dom's family, consisting of the love of his life Letty (Michelle Rodriguez, 45), sister Mia (Jordana Brewster, 43), brother Jakob (John Cena, 46) and crew members Roman (Tyrese Gibson, 44) and Tej (Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, 46), Ramsey (Nathalie Emmanuel, 34) and Han (Sung Kang, 51), also appear in "Fast & Furious 10".
Also returning are action star Jason Statham (56) as Deckard Shaw, Charlize Theron (48) as Cipher and Oscar winner Helen Mirren (78) as Deckard's mother Queenie Shaw.
New to the "Fast & Furious" series in part ten are Oscar winner Brie Larson (34) as the mysterious Tess and "Reacher" star Alan Ritchson (41) as Aimes, a successor to Mr. Nobody, alongside top villain Momoa. Daniela Melchior (27), known from "The Suicide Squad", is also involved as Brazilian racing driver Isabel Neves. Oscar winner and acting icon Rita Moreno (91) plays Abuelita Toretto, the grandmother of Dom, Mia and Jakob. So there's no doubt that there's plenty of star power in this sequel.
