After 22 years, the end of the road has begun for The Fast Saga. With the horizon in sight, Vin Diesel (Guardians of the Galaxy) and company will be going bigger than ever for the final two films in the franchise, starting with Fast X, which debuted its first trailer today.

The action-packed trailer that spans almost four minutes and focuses on Dominic Toretto (Diesel), who has been growing, building, and protecting his family for over two decades. Dom’s love for family is his biggest strength and weakness, and Dante (Aquaman’s Jason Momoa) will look to tear the family apart once and for all.

Dante is the son of the deceased Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes, the main villain of Fast Five. Dante has been planning his revenge for 12 years, and now, he teams with Cipher (The Old Guard’s Charlize Theron) to take out Dom by going after his 8-year-old son, Brian Marcos (Leo Abelo Perry)

All the Fast & Furious movies, ranked from worst to best
Men and women looking at the horizon in Fast Seven.

Apart from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, no film franchise has grown quite as fast or as furiously as, well, you’ve read the title of the article. With a dozen releases in a quarter-century (including the next installment, expected in 2025), the Fast franchise has racked up over $6.6 billion at the worldwide box office.
It began with a sideways remake of Point Break, and it’s a bombastic spy-fi mega-franchise that sent Ludacris into space in a Pontiac Fiero. What a world. But is bigger always better? Where did the Fast franchise find the best balance between family drama and frenetic action? Your mileage may vary, but here’s where each film finishes in our personal unauthorized street race.

The Fast and Furious franchise has been around for over 20 years now, inundating viewers with everything from neon street racing to exploding submarines. Throughout that time, the franchise has introduced a crowded and colorful rogues' gallery worthy of Batman's. These antagonists admittedly vary in their effectiveness in each installment, but it seems that each evil character is able to provide just enough opportunities for destruction to uphold a nitrous-fueled action franchise. With Fast X, the franchise is bringing in yet another big name with Jason Momoa, who plays the film's villain. Momoa's Dante Reyes marks one of many villains to challenge the Fast crew, and he has some big shoes to fill.

The Fast and Furious franchise has never been renowned for creating compelling villains, but that doesn't mean they're completely forgettable. With bigger movies come villains played by more well-known actors like Charlize Theron. In more than 10 movies, a few villains in the Fast franchise stand above the rest and deserve proper recognition for their entertainingly evil ways.

How to stream the Fast & Furious movies
The cast of the Fast and Furious franchise.

This week, Fast X marks the tenth installment of the Fast & Furious movies, or the eleventh film if you count the spinoff, Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. This franchise is truly the crown jewel of Universal Pictures' modern action flicks. That's why it's so surprising that over half of the Fast & Furious films are not on any of the major streamers. Direct TV and cable television subscribers have the option to stream some of the earlier movies, but it's not ideal if you're already subscribed to any of the half-dozen premium streaming services.

Regardless, we've sorted out where and how you can stream the Fast & Furious movies, if you want to catch up before Fast X arrives on Friday, May 18. Note that the two short prequel films, The Turbo Charged Prelude for 2 Fast 2 Furious and Los Bandoleros, are not available to stream anywhere at the moment.
