Pour out a crown for Leon, the 'lost' Fast And Furious family member

We don't know much about Leon, which is kind of the problem. In "The Fast and the Furious", Leon is primarily there to serve as a lookout during street races while being another member of Dom's truck hijacking squad.

Nine movies later, it's pretty remarkable how much Dom's team has changed over the years. Before they all became immortal superheroes and experts in martial arts, driving and hacking, the heroes of the series were a group of disenfranchised car enthusiasts whose circumstances led them to become law breakers. In Jesse's case, he was a bona fide genius whose ADD got him in trouble at school and he dropped out, before eventually turning to crime and designing modifications for Dom and the company's cars. crew.

While Jesse had a sad story that helped Brian feel sympathy for Dom's situation and Vince had been Dom's best friend since childhood, Leon was just... there . He really didn't add anything to the team and by the time Dom returned in "Fast & Furious" he had a whole new team, including Han, Leo, and Santos (whom we later learn Dom knew of years before. The first movie). , having met them in prison). By then, however, there was no more room for Leon, and Dom seemed to just be moving on, which is a pretty serious thing for him to do, given how much he claims to care about. his family.

Knowing that "Fast & Furious" likes to reference earlier movies and bring back characters we haven't seen in ages, who better to help Dom in his hour of need before the franchise finale (?) film than Leon himself? In the meantime, you can catch Dom and his current family back in action when "Fast X" hits theaters on May 19, 2023.
