Fast X
Ever since the release ofThe Fate of the Furiousin 2017 , audiences have enquire how the franchise would address Brian O’Conner ’s absence seizure , if at all . At the conclusion ofFurious7 , Brian finally retires from the crew ’s dangerous animation and drives off into the sundown to live with Mia and their family . In the eighth film , the O’Conners are only briefly mentioned by Letty , who reaffirm the grandness of not bothering Mia and Brian . InF9,although Mia was part of the action , Brian was again only referenced with his low Nissan arriving at the family barbecue in the last scene .

As the enfranchisement nears its end with a two - part film , the question of how the series will say a last goodbye to Brian O’Conner as well as to the intact Toretto family has become more and more relevant . To perform the long - wait one last drive of the franchise without somehow incorporating its most important pillar along with Vin Diesel would be a disservice to the legacy make from 2001’sThe Fast and the Furious . That ’s why finding a meaningful role for O’Conner in the last two flick is so important . While the same techniques used duringBrian ’s scene inFurious 7can accomplish that goal , Vin Diesel should go beyond what is expected and make Paul Walker ’s pitch for old Brian O’Conner a world in some way .
Rather than a full - duration picture show set in the future , a bare epilog or flashforward showing Dom and Brian in their 60s still being speed - aficionados would be enough to take a touching yet humourous conclusion to the arcs of the character . Similar to the end ofFurious 7 , the scene would not need much linguistic context or data about what would happen next , and could only focus on a workaday moment for the duo . The scene could even feature future versions of other iconic characters such as Roman and Tej , whodefied scientific discipline by going into space in F9 , and spotlight that Hollywood ’s most notable family of drivers never stopped mature .
friendly relationship and the importance of family are the most significant theme presented inFast & Furious , and a scene like that would do the dealership ’s sum justice . Whether set in a street backwash or at one of Dom ’s famous barbeque , an epilog far away into the future tense could extend audiences one last smell at their favourite character in a conversant , easily recognizable scenario . It could also be a opportunity to bring Hobbs back for at least a few seconds , given that a full return of the character has been ruled out surveil the ever - growingDwayne Johnson and Vin Diesel feud .
Paul Walker ’s jocularity made into realness may be what Vin Diesel needs to achieve a satisfying goodbye for Brian O’Conner inFast & Furious . The absence seizure of Walker still leave fan and admirers sorrowful , but his donation to the franchise will never be block . A happy and effected sometime man O’Conner alongside Dom and Mia in the series ' final scenes could be the perfect ending to the saga , and a moment that audience will never bury .
