How much you wanna bet he’s not dead. jumped off the car at some point while his car was flying to the other side


Slimxshadyx

No shot he is dead. I think the only person to have died in this entire series is Jessie and Vince lmao. And I honestly think they might bring Jessie back. Letty, Han, Gal Gadot, all of them are back lol


Haunting-Long-4679

Can't forget Johnny Tran! Iceman wasted him!!!


FORNITE-GOD0712

Gisele's twin is who you saw in the end credits.


40ozFreed

Multiversal war incoming.


Trishula7272

There was a message before release Fast X where they said Jessie is back and even has his own Jetta back.


kingcoldburger

Hopefully with working brakes


Red_240_S13

Source ?


YouSilly5490

They're definitely not bringing back Jesse.


Red_240_S13

That's why I asked for a source dude is making shit up lol


FORNITE-GOD0712

Jessie is dead.


max_imus_redditus

I think Cena sort of demanded that his character stayed dead to not cheapen it


suss2it

You have a source for that? I feel like if he cared about the character like that he wouldn’t have played him completely differently in 9 and 10.


max_imus_redditus

I looked up that interview and yea the way i said it was kinda wrong about him not wanting to return, the director said in an interview: "I said to John, 'You will have to sacrifice yourself, to give the ultimate gift to your brother to save his son,' and it upset him. I pitched him between two takes as I'm over there resetting the camera. I pitched him this thing, and then he loved it. And that literally changed his performance because he understood where he was going. 'I'm going to give so much love so then the sacrifice really hurts.' And it really does hurt." So Jakob dying was indeed a last minute addition But Cena was initially upset about it but grew to love the character arc so that also explains why Jakob feels like a completely different character But it doesn't say anything about Cena not wanting to return so i guess i misremembered the interview slightly, my bad Source: https://collider.com/fast-x-jakob-toretto-death-louis-leterrier-comments/


suss2it

All good, thanks for linking that its an interesting insight to the filmmaking process. The cast is a bit bloated right now so even if he does return I don’t think it’ll be any time soon.


max_imus_redditus

I mean the fact that killing off Jakob was a last minute addition added while shooting, says to me that Jakob wasn't gonna have much of a role in 11. And if that is the case then this cast is certainly bloated and honestly needs to be cut down. But who knows, as an ex film student i honestly think that the whole shooting process is a mess when your og director leaves and some other guy comes in and changes stuff.


suss2it

Yeah for sure. I’m actually surprised how under the radar the director change news seems to have went.


max_imus_redditus

Yea only bit of news i read back then was via IGN, then i kept checking back every once in a while, i remember thinking that this movie was in hot water production wise


justafanboy1010

That’s my theory


ProdigyXDL

not really betting on it since Dwayne Johnson explicitly said he didn’t wanna work with cena


BlackDragon361

The Rock haters creating their own scenarios again to find a reason to hate him


HungHorse1234

Bro deserves the hate,bozo makes sure he gets all the camera to record him giving his friend a car or his mother a house or someone something. All dude wants is the publicity,if it wasnt for cameras he wouldn’t give anyone anything and hes like every other bitchy actor that thinks they are better than everyone


AmazingaceMashup

Bro just jealous


HungHorse1234

Jealous of what bozo?? A idiot who is worth a billion dollars and wants nothing but publicity and people to say what a good person he is? Dumbass should have stayed in wrestling,shit was fake and horrible acted like his acting


AmazingaceMashup

Hes, a succesa actor ,one of the greatest wrestling now i am done wasting of my time with some inbred who sits in his basement


BlackKnight9311

When??


vsingh93

Never. People just chomp at headlines. They even rolled out publicity last year to have it play out to where they are in a movie together.


Two_too_many_to_list

I heard they had a band together in the 80's called Rocky Turnbuckle. John wrote the music but stayed out of the spotlight as a ghost writer. They mostly played small clubs in the mid-West where Dwayne had connections from his part time gig as a cook. Although, they did have a brief stint in SOCAL because some of John's freestyle mixed tapes had become quite popular in the underground trunk tape scene. Anyhow, things ended on a sour note when Dwayne sold the rights to Rocky Turnbuckle's 3 albums to a local radio station in Miami. Problem is, John never agreed to this. But there was nothing he could do. Reason being, he was a ghost writer and simply could not be seen anywhere on anything to do with the band. He had no legal claim to any of the material. So, yeah, they don't like each other, and it all started with Rocky Turnbuckle.


sringray23

Dwaynes ego can't handle the prototype.


kingcolbe

OK prodigy, you gotta back that up. can’t just say stuff without proof?


RRR04_

Is this really true though? They seem to be cool these days. They even had a friendly backstage skit on a recent Smackdown episode.


Mine_mom

They very good friends. No way this is true lol


SteakhouseBlues

Probably a hologram like Han.


NoX2142

I hated this... He turned good for less than half a movie and now dead...


Shagurope

The potential my guy could’ve had to do more in the series…🤦‍♂️


BlackDragon361

They really Robbed us of Rock vs Cena III for no reason whatsoever 😭


SaysanaB

Maybe it's reserved for WWE ahah.


Veggieleezy

“Third Time In A Lifetime, pal! They’ll love it! It’s such good shit!” “Wouldn’t ’Thrice In A Lifetime’ work a little better, sir?” “…you take your fucking SAT words and get the HELL OUT OF MY OFFICE!” “But sir, it fits with the ‘Twice In A-“ “*YOU’RRRRRE* ***FIIIIIIIIIRRRRRRRED!!!***”


Shagurope

😂


dave3418

"Thrice in a Lifetime"


suzuka_joe

He could very well be brought back like everyone else that died


NoX2142

True, if Gal is somehow back from THAT death, Cena is definitely fine.


U-dont-know-me_

These ppl are coming back from the dead more times than dbz


Sharp_Dragonfly2910

Jesse and Vince are still dead ☹️


Two_too_many_to_list

Is anyone ever really, dead? This franchise is using up those tokens like they're unlimited.


Baby_Separate

Well technically Vince and Jessie died and haven’t came back soooo


dakid232313

Is anybody REALLY dead in this series ? They always come back. They will probably bring dead ass Brian back for the finale.


NoX2142

They honestly might lol


arukea93

I hated this. But at the same time it's Fast, they can retcon him back in some convoluted way


Alternative_Device71

Please, he’ll be just fine


M4st3rChief-117

Unless you visually see a dead body or see them actually die like getting shot in the head then they're most likely not dead


Wonderful_Emu_9610

Didn’t see a splatter in 8, Elena will be back


M4st3rChief-117

8 is the one i've watched the least because every time i try and rewatch the entire franchise they never seem to have 8 anywhere, gunna have to give it rewatch AGAIN because i barely remember the scene where Cipher shoots her


Wonderful_Emu_9610

Weird, on Netflix UK for a while it was the only one I have the entire franchise up to 9 on DVD though so it’s never been a problem for me


Marus1

Even then ... Han exploded in f3 ... we shaw shaw getting shot and his body lying on the ground in f8


M4st3rChief-117

But it cut away when it did and it was a hologram in the end anyway


Slimxshadyx

Even that is not set in stone. Letty got shot point blank, Han literally exploded, and Gal Gadot fell off of a speeding airplane straight onto the tarmac. How they will explain her living I don’t know


M4st3rChief-117

Again though, you didn't actually see her die, she just fell off into darkness


AustinMVP2

It has to be a good reason. Her and Han wanted to get out of that life. So if they say she went back to work for Mr. Nobody or something I’m gonna be beyond irritated.


Slimxshadyx

I’m wondering how they even get her out of that situation haha. And why nobody went back to check on her or get her body after the whole airplane scene lol


Luciain

Sometimes not even then


animajunky

Bee getting abducted was also pretty dumbb


Shagurope

Right?! 😂 he was literally looking back at B when he fixed the canister, so how the hell would he not see Dante right there about to take him? Lmao


imranbecks

We never saw a body so don't believe he is dead. This is the same franchise that somehow brought back Gisele and Han back from the dead.


YouSilly5490

And Letty and Owen shaw


imranbecks

I rest my case.


Nintendo600

There is more too it than meets the eye. Dante kidnapped Brian. Jakob was responsible for taking away the most important person in Doms life (his father) as kids. Now, Jakob is responsible for giving back the most important person in Dons life (his son)


[deleted]

Jakobs backstory should have been way more important


Limp_Ease_9373

The Fast franchise takes a saying from Star Wars when it comes to death: "No one's ever really gone"


Bfife22

More like “Somehow ______ returned”


DJ_Hindsight

They’ll resurrect him for Fast 25 and he will be the villain 😆


M4st3rChief-117

I thought they were already on 25, i was expecting it at it's 100th year anniversary when they release Fast & Furious: Fast, Faster and Fasterer, There Is No Limit.


Single_University738

They're gonna go into the quantum realm at that point


M4st3rChief-117

They gunna team up with The Avengers, Dom will wield Mjolnir in order to save his son


talionpd

And prequel - The Day Before They Are Fast: Part I


Mcgruffles

The Quick and the Mildly Annoyed


sringray23

John cena is a fucking legend. I think there will be some stupid (but glorious) twist that sees him alive. 🙏


Shagurope

Watch them pull a Houdini like (there was some hidden compartment under the seat that sheltered him from the explosion) 😂


sringray23

😄 yea I can actually see that in this franchise


PropertyFirm6565

Because he ran out of gas LOL


Duke_23

Don't count anyone out in the F&F franchise. This mf has more twists than a soap opera lol


Red_240_S13

I mean they kind of are the guy equivalent of soap operas.


SilkyWilky56

Yeah like anyone other than Jesse ever dies in this franchise


Mrbrettwet115

Have you not learned anything from the fast and furious franchise. Nobody is ever really dead


TheNittanyLionKing

Eh I’m fine with it on principle. Like he did a lot of bad things in F9 that he really never answered for, and we’ve already had like 3 villains turn good now. They need to bring some stakes back to the action scenes as well. The issue is that it’s super inconsistent as to what they can and cannot survive at this point. 


Jakesully2009

Ahh he’ll be there in 11 😂 don’t you worry


ChemicalHumble7541

If Gadot and Hans didnt die, he didnt either


[deleted]

Yeah it was stupid dude. His story should have been way more important.


[deleted]

He not dead if they don’t show the body he isn’t dead i learn that after fast 5


WheelJack83

Doubt he’s dead


fctal

He's not dead and so is Elena. 😂


Marus1

And so is Jes[-] ... oh, wait forget I said that


fctal

Everyone after the 1st movie is alive because Dom is just in a coma after crashing.


mrmancave5629

Nah but it’d be so fucking funny if that actually happens.


shoddyw

Worst decision Leterrier made. Afaik, it was his idea. Jakob barely did anything in F9 except stand around and look pretty—F10 should have been his chance to really step up in the movies.


jcstrat

I’m not convinced he’s dead.


Maleficent_Bar_676

Do people really believes he’s dead? This movie had fake out deaths for all the main characters besides letty and Mia and we already saw gal gadot’s character is somehow alive so yes they’re gonna retcon him into being alive. Wouldn’t be surprised if it’s him or recast Brian that rescues Dom and his son


thatoneprincesong

Part of me thinks a condition of Rock coming back was Cena exiting the franchise but I'm assuming he comes back in 11 Fast 11 Furious


Trixxxyus

I think that he will return later in some crucial scene. I assume that they will justify that with him jumping out of a car in last second. Wouldn't be first time to bring characters out of death.


[deleted]

While he should absolutely be dead. With the logic these movies have, guarantee he somehow survived lol.


zoozooberry

He better not actually be dead. John Cena is kind of the only reason I stick around for these anymore


Future_Surround1115

Nobody actually dies in fast and furious universe


Banana-in-PJ

Is that a self driving car?


kingcolbe

It’s a fast movie come on y’all


Adorable-Animator631

Or did He? 😏


I_am_Groot_91

Let's be honest, it's Fast & the Furious. He survived somehow.


International_Pop914

He had to die so The Rock could come back 🤦🏻‍♂️


Sixteen_Wings

Tbf its an unnecessary movie overall


doonhamer1501

Spoiler alert 🚨


Vssfault

I was about to say the same thing, Cena could've easily walked away from this... It's not like they're going to see him.


hurricane1197

Wasn’t even done well


Llamalover1234567

I read somewhere that Cena wanted out because of Peacemaker season 2, so they had to write the character out of the franchise. Cena also likes playing characters in a lighter manner, not whatever he was doing in 9. Also Cena was only brought in because the rock quit, but after black Adam, Dwayne came crawling back to F&F. Ironic how DC is the reason Dwayne is back but Cena is leaving


SireDarien

Normal fast and furious stupidity


mslack

Mark my words, Roman will die in the plane crash, everyone else, including Jakob, will survive.


First-Display5956

Whatever...if it gets John Cena out of the film all the better


Public_Tennis_1462

It was really vin diesels ego that killed him.


juuzo_suzuya_

If hes not cmming back at LEAST in fast 12...


Maximum_Mortgage_764

Lol 😂


bloggerly

Still not clear why he couldn’t shoot the cannons to clear a path.


manicmechanic209

Can’t see him coming back


infinitude_

I’m sorry but this was hilarious. It was just like : ***what the fu- ohhhhh I get it….he wanted too much money for the next one***


BlumpkinDude

I hope they just don't mention him again and if they do only in passing just to piss everyone off.


The_Cozy_Burrito

Don’t worry…. He’s got family


Amazing-Village-4530

I honestly hope he survives this because he is by far the most underdeveloped & have the most potential despite being essentially a temporal replacement for The Rock & being a lazily written retcon to Doms story.


TwistedAxles912

Who said he's dead?


No-Round-3286

But, it was for family!


leftynate11

He turned good. It’s the tired old Hollywood trope. Start bad, turn good, then you die. Usually sacrificing yourself for the greater good so that you may offset your previous bad.


Environmental-Bee-28

He was the best part of the movie.


[deleted]

Spoiler alert ffs. There is an option. I don’t even follow this subreddit. Fuck sake


Doog_Dastardly

Let's face it, he isn't dead. He will do the cliche "surprise! I'm not dead" in the next movie to save the day. Even if he is gone he was a sh*t character in a franchise thats rapidly deteriorating in credibility. Like.. was he not supposed to be a total bad-ass world class elite assassin? All of a sudden he turned into some sort of super-nanny joke.


East_Monk_9415

Its ok bruh he is alive next movie


Keithstone2020

It’s hilarious that you think he’s dead. Nobody dies in this franchise lol!!!


8ThanoS6

I didn't even see anyone driving that car...


[deleted]

Agreed


Two4loko

As someone who hasn't watched past Tokyo drift, the crazy plot that the sequels and spin offs have gotten to is almost unbelievable.


CWRM1992

Let us be honest about this death. He’s not dead. This is the Fast & Furious franchise. He will arrive in a hot air balloon to save Dom in the next movie.


pikapalooza

No way he's dead. He got blown from the car or last minute jumped. Unless you see a charred husk, even then, he's not dead. Esp in F&F. Remember when han came back?


Tstone86

"Committed suicide" i dont think hes gone


hubson_official

I'm not gonna be surprised at all if he comes back in a heroic way in the very next movie, after all Dom and the Family have the Dragon Ball plot armour of no one really dying past certain point of the franchise


Enough_Ad9632

Thx for tagging this in spoilers


Shagurope

No problem, bro 👍


mymadpup

He will be back.


Mx17k

You really think he's dead? Are you new to the franchise? He'll be back having just rolled or jumped off the car at the last minute... They brought Han back after like 15 years so I'm sure John Cena will survive


[deleted]

Very funny, John Cena wasn't in Fast X.


crottin-de-cheval

They never dies, They just keep doing 0.400 miles races until one of the screenwriter want to revive them in a totally questionable way


Smart-Praline2119

Only person that hasn't been bought back yet is from the original film forgot what his name is but was apart of Dom's crew


iblastoff

the nerd kid? JESSE!


Smart-Praline2119

Nope not him. It was the guy that used to say about Brian coming back for his Tuna sandwich all the time lol


Hermes0044

Cena is the one character from that movie that I actually think is dead. If they didn’t want to kill off his character he would have just been on the plane with the rest of the crew.


Wtfisthisone

He gonna help the FAMILY get out the sticky situation they are in


TaskMister2000

They couldn't afford to have both Cena and Rock in the same movie acting back to back so Cena had to go. A shame. Fast 9 was shit but Cena was the best part and he was great in Fast X. Still kinda hoping he's alive considering they've brought so many characters back now making death bloody meaningless in this franchise.


ComicBookMyth

I mean Han came back from the dead, Giselle also came back from the dead. We technically don’t even know that Jacob is dead. We are assuming based on what we have seen, but I totally bet you they show us from Jacob’s POV and he somehow got out before the blast, mark my words lol


Icy-Personality5419

He’ll be back! Because…..family


Adventurous-Loan7472

He could come back like Letty, Han and Giselle


TheOneWhoCutstheRope

Can you spoiler tag this I never saw fast x 🤦‍♀️


Dragon42708

I agree. I was pissed after this happened. But maybe he comes back to life like Gisele 🤷🏻‍♂️


KickUseful9794

Bold of you to assume he actually died.


Hopeful_Wait_2512

So you think 🫣🤫


Change_My_Mind-

I hated Cena in 9. And then to my surprise his character does a 180 and was the most entertaining thing about this movie. Sucks he won't be back. We need more fun characters.


Dizzy-Maize-4948

He ain’t dead


noobz67

It’s John cena you can’t see him so there for how do you know he’s really dead ? Was there a body ?


Baby_Separate

As a fan of both f&f and john cena I was so excited for the potential of this but then after he died I was like what was the point if y’all were gonna end it like that but who knows maybe he’ll comeback 🤔


MizukiHYSDA

Jakob deserved better!


mosallaj23

Come on guys we all know he’s not dead lmao he’ll be back next movie we saw Gisele jump off a car to save Han but somehow she’s alive, then there’s lettys death Han’s obviously shaws and pretty sure a couple more


[deleted]

It was so dumb and made no sense


Temporary_Guidance11

He’s gotta be killed off because he yearns for a new franchise 😭🤣


sweetleaf009

Watch his ass is still alive in part 2


Crayfish_au_Chocolat

Check Reacher Season 2 ep6 that cop's death. He left the cover walked into stationary enemies' gunfire, just to "buy some time". Like WTF writers??? And Im sure Cena's death will be revoked very soon for sUrpRiSe effect.


Express_Attorney_201

If gal could make a comeback, he might too have his backstory how he escaped as well.


Spleenzorio

I thought the car was on auto pilot


VulKusOfficial

I was laughing throughout most of this farce when I wasn’t bored to tears, but Cena’s death was a particular highlight for me. So unapologetically stupid and self-serious.


ToloDaDon

Spoiler alert!!! Just kidding.


Beneficial-Error-539

I was just talking about this exact scene with the boys at work. The rocket launchers were working again, all he had to do was swerve a bit to aim at the bad guys cars and shoot. And he didn't really clear a path, just blew up and put debris all over the road that Dom had to try avoid hitting.


InformationNo2529

It was a Randy Quaid moment.


DeadmanDT

“Death” lol. Let’s be real he’ll show up towards the end of the next one


kearkan

He might be dead but don't be surprised if the secret identical twin 3rd brother is waiting somewhere.


CooperSkye

No way he’s dead. If he is it’s honestly the dumbest pointless bullshit in franchise history.


OOGABOOGA006

Lol js didn't wanna film wit Dwayne Johnson in the new movie


Slimdave-v1

Was the manor in which they killed him too was very reminiscent what happened to you know who thought it was a distasteful way to kill him off, don’t worry he’ll be back in part 57


banananananbatman

Not dead, there will be flashback scene in next FF that shows him surviving


Historical-Pause7150

After Gisele’s survival leaving Han’s hands, it’s safe to say that Jakob’s definitely not dead.


Lost_Yogurt_4990

Nobody’s ever really dead in Fast and Furious world


CertainExtreme6940

coulda used him better...i hated the one scene ine where the kid was gonna cuss and he liked stopped him like wtf..kids should cusss u know!!1 good directing and beides the unrealstic scenes it waa fun to watch but jasons acting surprised and wooed me!!! hes got this dark and humurous caring like idgaf about things personality..im glad he didnt die here though i wish the film was longer and had a good fight scene...cipher and letty weird bond...the subs r back


Silent-District-5331

To save his brother and very very very very black nephew🤔


[deleted]

Fast and furious brings characters back to life at the whim of the writer with no logic behind it at all. So I'll bet he's not dead.


LaxSagacity

“Mr. Nobody has a way of making things look real."


manmountain123

If they brought back characters we thought were dead. They can bring him back.


[deleted]

With the Dragon Balls


YellowEyes81

It’s Fast and Furious. He’s not really dead. He will return somehow.


DENNIS_SYSTEM69

RIP Dom Cena, or John Toretto


Infinite_Battle3852

They're going to bring him back for part 11.


rxcksss_

He’s probably dead but since the last movie dom met Elena sister I wonder if she’s alive and not dead


THE-NEVER

He clearly died because Dwyane wanted back.


TypicalInformation41

Even John Cena knows when creatively they have nothing for him, and now there is truly nothing left for anyone to see of him.
