The “Fast and Furious” franchise is known for its high-speed car chases, over-the-top stunts, and a cast of characters who are always up for a good time. But for fans of the series, one question has always loomed large: what happened after “Tokyo Drift”?
For those who may not be familiar with the franchise’s timeline, “Tokyo Drift” was the third film in the series and is set after the events of all the other movies. It follows the story of Sean Boswell, a high school student who moves to Tokyo and becomes embroiled in the underground world of drift racing.
At the end of “Tokyo Drift,” Sean races against the film’s main antagonist, DK, and wins. However, he decides to stay in Tokyo and leaves the audience wondering what his future holds. That’s where the next films in the series come in.
“Fast and Furious,” the fourth movie in the franchise, takes place before “Tokyo Drift” and sees the return of many of the series’ main characters, including Dominic Toretto, Brian O’Conner, and Letty Ortiz. The film picks up where “2 Fast 2 Furious” left off and follows Dom and Brian as they team up to take down a drug lord in exchange for their own freedom.
“Fast Five” is the fifth movie in the franchise and takes place after “Fast and Furious.” It sees the return of Dom and his crew, who are on the run from the law after a failed heist. They end up in Rio de Janeiro, where they plan one last job to secure their freedom.
“Fast and Furious 6” takes place after the events of “Fast Five” and sees Dom and his crew facing off against a new villain, Owen Shaw, and his team of highly skilled drivers. The film introduces a new character, Deckard Shaw, who would go on to become a major player in the series.
“Fast and Furious 7” picks up after the events of “Fast and Furious 6” and sees the crew facing off against Deckard Shaw, who seeks revenge for his brother’s defeat. The film also features a touching tribute to Paul Walker, who tragically passed away during filming.
“Fast and Furious 8” sees the return of Dom and his crew, who must face off against a new villain, Cipher, who threatens to tear their family apart. The film takes the franchise to new heights with even more outrageous stunts and over-the-top action.
“Fast and Furious 9,” the most recent film in the franchise, sees the return of Dom and his crew as they face off against a long-lost relative and confront their past in order to save their future.
In summary, the “Fast and Furious” franchise has come a long way since “Tokyo Drift.” While the third movie was something of an outlier in the series, the subsequent films have all built on its foundation, expanding the franchise’s universe and introducing new characters and storylines. Fans continue to be drawn to the series for its thrilling action and charismatic cast, and it shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
