Fast X

Dom Toretto’s ever-expanding household is again in Fast X, the primary in a trilogy of movies deliberate to shut out the long-running franchise for good. Stepping in for Fast veteran author/director Justin Lin (Star Trek Beyond) after his shock departure is Louis Leterrier (The Transporter).

It appears as if somebody mentioned, “You died and came back insane and hating everyone. Go!” From there, Momoa hit the bottom working and by no means appeared again whereas maniacally laughing all of the whereas. He steals each scene he’s in, no matter who else is on the display screen.
