The tenth installment of the “Fast & Furious” franchise is set to launch in the summer in “Fast X” and most are eager to see who will be the new faces joining the main cast.
It appears that a new name has entered the mix, with someone playing the role of Dominic Torreto’s (Vin Diesel) son, Brian Marcos.
In a report from Variety, “Cheaper by the Dozen” actor Leo Abelo Perry will reportedly be joining the cast as an older version of Brian Marcos.
The last time “Fast & Furious” viewers saw him was when he was still a baby on “The Fate of the Furious” back in 2017.
At the time, Brian Marcos was revealed to be Toretto’s son with former partner Elena Neves (Elsa Pataky). Both were kidnapped by Cipher (Charlize Theron) with Elena getting killed and Brian being saved by Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) and Owen Shaw (Luke Evans).
There was an older version of Brian Marcos shown in 2019 in “F9: The Fast Saga.” Torretto and stepmother Letty (Michelle Rodriguez). He was seen living with Dom and Letty at their farmhouse at the time.
Torreto named his son after his friend, Brian O’Conner (the late Paul Walker). It will be interesting what kind of role Perry will have in “Fast X” which is set to premiere on May 19.
Perry joins a cast of new faces that includes Jason Momoa, Brie Larson, Rita Moreno, Alan Ritchson and Daniela Melchior. “Fast X” will be directed by Louis Leterrier.
There are a lot of things to look forward to in the next “Fast & Furious” installment with most still wanting to find out what the finale of “F9” meant.
It will be recalled that in the final scene as the gang was having a barbecue, a familiar blue car that is associated with O’Conner drove up. Before that, there was also an empty chair that teased that someone who was part of the family was coming.
With Walker dead, there is a chance that his brothers – Cody or Caleb – could reprise the role of Brian O’Conner. But the level of appearance is unknown, meaning there is a chance that it could be nothing more than cameo appearance – something that “Fast & Furious” fans will certainly not want.
