SinceFast & Furious 11might be the last movie in the long-running franchise, it could include some heartbreaking deaths. Ever since thecliffhanger ending ofFast X, I’ve been eagerly anticipating the eleventh movie in the series. It’s hard to keep audiences engaged so many films into a franchise, but fans of theFast & Furiousmovieshave come to love most of the characters. Additionally,Fast X’svillain, Jason Momoa’s Dante Reyes, has raised the stakes of the series heading into the final entry.
Since Dante has promised to get revenge on all the members of Dom’s crew, theupcomingFast & Furious 11could be the most emotional movie in the entire franchise. If it does indeed end up being the last film in the series, it wouldn’t be surprising if there are some major deaths. While the series has included plenty of fake-out deaths in the past, the casualties inFast & Furious 11will likely be final. Therefore,here are 11 majorFast & Furious 11characters, ranked by how much their death would hurt in the upcoming movie:
11Dante Reyes Will Return As A Villain In Fast X
Played By Jason Momoa
The beginning ofFast Xrevealed thatDante is the son of Hernan Reyes, who was the main villain ofFast Five, one of the most critically acclaimed movies in the franchise. During Dom and his crew’s final showdown against Hernan in Brazil, Dante was thrown out of his car and into the water. Since he was unable to save his father’s life many years before the events ofFast X, he is now seeking revenge against Dom and his crew.
While manyFast & Furiousvillainshave found redemption and actually become allies for the series' main characters, it doesn’t seem like this will happen with Dante. Instead,Dante can serve as an intimidating and irredeemable villain who is deadset on revenge in the series' final movie. Since he is actively trying to kill Dom and everyone he loves, Dante’s potential death inFast & Furious 11probably won’t be that emotional.
10Ramsey Has Emerged As A Valuable Member Of Dom’s Crew
Played By Nathalie Emmanuel
Unlike Dante, Ramsey has consistently proven that she is loyal to Dom and his crew. Since being introduced inFurious 7, Ramsey has become an important supporting character in the series. She has helped Dom take down Cipher, Jakob Toretto, and is now involved in the ongoing fight against Dante. At the end ofFast X,Ramsey was actually one of the characters in a plane that seemingly crashed. Roman, Tej, and Han were also on this plane.
Ramsey is an effective supporting character in the franchise, but she definitely isn’t a standout.
However, since these characters weren’t confirmed to be dead in the tenth film, it is expected that they will return inFast & Furious 11, which is why they will all be included on this list. Out of these four important characters,Ramsey’s death would be the least impactful, simply because she hasn’t been around for as long. Ramsey is an effective supporting character in the franchise, but she definitely isn’t a standout, and she would honestly be one of the easiest characters to kill off inFast & Furious 11.
9Tej Parker Is One Of The Most Likable Fast & Furious Characters
Played By Ludacris
Out of all the characters in theFast & Furiousfranchise, Ramsey has the closest relationship with Tej. Since Tej is also very smart with computers,he and Ramsey have become close friends in the series, and a possible romantic relationship has even been teased. Based on their interactions in the last few movies, Tej and Ramsey would definitely make a good couple. However, this potential romantic connection would also make one (or both) of their deaths inFast & Furious 11very tragic.
Since Tej was first introduced in2 Fast 2 Furious, his death would definitely be more emotional for fans. Throughout his time in the franchise, Tej has formed close relationships with characters like Roman, Letty, and Dom. Without a doubt,he is one of the core members of Dom’s crew in theFast & Furiousfranchise. He has survived a lot and has been an instrumental member of the crew, so it would be heartbreaking if he dies in the series' final entry.
8Gisele Yashar Just Returned From The Dead
Played By Gal Gadot
Gisele Yashar made a surprise appearance at the end ofFast X. In the tenth film, Gisele shows up in a submarine to rescue Letty and Cipher from the Antarctica prison. Her return was shocking, since she seemingly died by falling out of a plane during the climax ofFast & Furious 6.Her apparent death inFast & Furious 6was already heartbreaking, especially since she had fallen in love with Han.
Ever since he returned to the franchise inF9, it’s been clear that Han still misses Gisele. Thankfully, the two characters willreunite inFast & Furious 11. Their reunion will likely be one of the most hopeful moments in the series' final movie, which would make it even more tragic if Gisele is taken away from Han once again.Since she just returned, Gisele’s death inFast & Furious 11is unlikely, but the writers of the film could definitely take audiences by surprise by killing her off once again.
7Deckard Shaw Has Found Redemption In The Fast & Furious Franchise
Played By Jason Statham
Deckard Shaw is the perfect example of a character who started out as a villain in theFast & Furiousfranchise and then found redemption.Deckard was on a revenge mission inFurious 7after Dom and his crew gravely injured his brother, Owen Shaw, in the sixth movie. Interestingly, this actually means he has many similarities to Dante, which could be interesting to explore in the franchise’s final movie. However, it’s possible that Dante will kill Deckard inFast & Furious 11.
After watching him inHobbs & Shaw, audiences definitely feel a closer connection to Deckard.
In addition to appearing in several of the mainline films,Deckard also got more time in the spotlight in theHobbs & Shawspinoff movie. After watching him inHobbs & Shaw, audiences definitely feel a closer connection to Deckard. This spinoff introduced his sister, Hattie. Additionally, his mother, Magdalene Shaw, is also a reoccurring character in the franchise. Therefore, if Dante does indeed kill Deckard inFast & Furious 11, or if he dies another way, these characters will definitely mourn him alongside many audience members.
6Han Lue Deserves To Be Happy After Fast & Furious 11
Played By Sung Kang
Just like Gisele,Han has actually already seemingly died before in theFast & Furiousfranchise. Han first appeared in the series' third film,The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. He was immediately one of the most likable characters in the movie, but tragically died during a car explosion. In theFast & Furioustimeline,Tokyo Driftactually takes place after the events ofFast & Furious 6, and the post-credits scene of the sixth film made viewers relive Han’s heartbreaking death.
At one point, Han’s demise was arguably considered the most heartbreaking death in the entire franchise. However,the fan-favorite character was revealed to still be alive inF9, resuming his role as one of the main members of Dom’s crew. Since he will finally reunite with Gisele years after her apparent death in the sixth movie, Han dying inFast & Furious 11may be too much for audiences to handle. Therefore, hopefully Han will have a much-deserved happy ending.
5Roman Pearce Is One Of The Most Popular Fast & Furious Characters
Played By Tyrese Gibson
When Roman was first introduced in2 Fast 2 Furious, he was actually meant to be a replacement for Dominic Toretto. Watching Roman and Brian together in the second movie was extremely entertaining, which is exactly why the former has been a fan-favorite character for many years. However, even though he has been a popular character, many fans believe thatRoman has been wasted in theFast & Furiousmovies. In the series' most recent movies,Roman has mostly been sidelined as a supporting character and often even treated as a joke.
Despite this, fans still love Roman Pearce. It is undeniable that he is a loyal member of Dom’s crew, and will continue to fight against Dante inFast & Furious 11. If the writers of the movie can’t find an effective role for him, though, it’s possible that Roman will die.Roman’s death would prove that anyone can die inFast & Furious 11, which would raise the stakes of the final film even more. Without a doubt, a lot of fans will definitely be heartbroken if he does indeed die in the upcoming movie.
4Luke Hobbs' Fast & Furious 11 Return Is Highly Anticipated
Played By Dwayne Johnson
The ending ofFast Xfeatured the returns of both Gisele Yashar and Luke Hobbs. Out of these two characters, Luke Hobbs is undoubtedly the more popular, and fans can’t wait to see Dwayne Johnson reprise his role inFast & Furious 11.Luke Hobbs became one of the series' main characters after his introduction inFast Five, but didn’t appear inF9and only had a cameo inFast Xbecause of Johnson’s well-known feud with Vin Diesel. However, Johnson still made sure Hobbs is an important character in the franchise by starring inHobbs & Shaw.
InFast & Furious 11, Hobbs will likely reunite with Dom and the rest of the crew to try to take down Dante.
SinceLuke Hobbs is the one who actually shot Hernan Reyes at the end ofFast Five, it only makes sense that Dante is hunting him down, as well. InFast & Furious 11, Hobbs will likely reunite with Dom and the rest of the crew to try to take down Dante. Hobbs is a fan-favorite character and his relationship with his daughter was explored quite a bit inHobbs & Shaw.Therefore,some viewers might not be able to handle him dying inFast & Furious 11.
3Mia Toretto Is Raising A Family With Brian O’Conner
Played By Jordana Brewster
Jordana Brewster has starred as Mia Toretto since the very firstFast & Furiousmovie. Over the course of several films in the franchise,she fell in love and ended up having two children with Brian O’Conner. Even though Paul Walker tragically died in real life, Brian is still alive in the world of theFast & Furiousfranchise. Therefore, whenever Mia appears in the movies, it makes viewers immediately think of Brian and the impact Walker had on the franchise.
InFast X,Mia returned home to make sure Brian and her children are safe after learning about Dante. Because of this, Brewster doesn’t have a major role in the tenth film, but will most likely return inFast & Furious 11. Mia’s death inFast & Furious 11would be incredibly heartbreaking since it would mean that Brian has to raise their children on his own. Therefore, it would be shocking if Mia actually died in the final movie in the series.
2Letty Ortiz Deserves To Raise A Family With Dom
Played By Michelle Rodriguez
Since Dom and Letty were apart from each other for the majority ofFast X, fans can’t wait to see them reunite inFast & Furious 11.Dom and Letty have been the most prominent couple in theFast & Furiousfranchise for a long time, but their journeys obviously haven’t been easy. Letty, in particular, had her memory wiped after almost dying in an explosion in the series' fourth movie. Therefore, at one point, Letty barely knew who she was and couldn’t even recognize the people she loved the most.
Fast & Furious 11is currently expected to be released in the summer of 2026. However, filming has not yet begun on the franchise’s final movie.
However,Letty is now incredibly happy with Dom and is raising Little B like he is her own son. There’s even ahint that Letty is pregnant inFast X. While this isn’t confirmed, it’s possible that Dom and Letty’s family will grow in the series' final movie. However, this reveal likely won’t stop Dante from hunting them down. Therefore, it would be heartbreaking if Letty died inFast & Furious 11, since she deserves to live happily ever after.
