The Marvel Cinematic Universe revolutionized Hollywood with its post-credits scenes, starting with The Silencers in 1966. And now, as the Fast and Furious franchise continues to captivate audiences, it’s time to dive into the world of Fast X post-credit scenes and what they mean for the future of the series. How many Fast X post-credits scenes are there?
The Fast and Furious saga began in 2001 with The Fast and the Furious, inspired by a gripping article called “Racer X” which exposed the underground street racing scene in New York City. Since then, the franchise has expanded into a thrilling series of action-packed films centered around heists and espionage.
So, how many post-credits scenes can you expect in Fast X? There’s one, and it appears during the mid-credits sequence. This scene brings back a beloved character, Luke Hobbs, portrayed by the charismatic Dwayne Johnson. As the scene unfolds, masked agents initiate a daring raid on an abandoned building.
Inside a theater, an agent walks toward a television playing “Happy Trails” by Roy Rogers. Suddenly, a phone rings and a voice belonging to Dante (played by Jason Momoa) is heard on the other end. Dante addresses the mystery person, expressing his desire for revenge: “You took the most important thing in my life from me. Dom drove the car, but you? You pulled the trigger, and now I’m gonna make you suffer.” The scene then cuts to an event from Fast Five, where Dom crashed into Dante’s father’s vehicle.
Originally excluded from the initial minutes of the film, Hobbs now appears on-screen, taking down Hernan Reyes. This revelation sheds light on Dante’s motivations for seeking vengeance against Dom. Dante taunts Dom, stating, “The devil’s coming for you,” with a sarcastic pause before adding, “Lawman.” In response, Dom defiantly declares, “Well, I ain’t hard to find, you sumbitch.”
The return of Dwayne Johnson as Hobbs came as a surprise to fans, as he had previously stated he wouldn’t be back. However, Vin Diesel, the driving force behind the franchise, made a heartfelt plea on Instagram, urging Johnson to join Fast X and fulfill the promise to late cast member Paul Walker. Diesel’s appeal emphasized the importance of Johnson’s role as Hobbs, stating that no one else could play the character.
In response to Diesel’s public post, Johnson clarified in an interview with CNN that he had previously informed Diesel of his decision not to return. Despite their disagreement, Johnson expressed his support for the cast and his desire for the franchise’s success.
Fast X, set to launch on May 19, 2023, promises an exciting finale, with the unexpected return of Luke Hobbs and the intriguing mid-credits scene hinting at intense confrontations and a thrilling future for the Fast and Furious series. Buckle up and get ready for the ride of a lifetime!
