10 years later, Furious 7remains Jason Statham's most successful project. There are several metrics that can be used to deduce exactly which of Jason Statham’s movies is the best or at least most impactful, one of which is their box office performance. Furious 7 takes place within the Fast & Furious universe, introducing Statham’s character as the vengeful brother of the previous film’s villain, seeking revenge against Vin Diesel's protagonist Dom Toretto for his actions against his family.

After continuing beyond the perfect ending point ten years ago, the Fast & Furious series will now undoubtedly struggle to end the franchise in a satisfying way. The Fast & Furious franchise began as a series about street racing, but quickly evolved into one of the biggest action franchises in Hollywood. Over the years, the stunts in Fast & Furious movies have gotten more ridiculous and over-the-top. While these stunts have led to several entertaining films, the Fast & Furious movies are definitely not as highly regarded as they once were.

Fast 11 will conclude the long-running series, but will have a hard time topping the best ending of the Fast & Furious franchise. The Fast & Furious franchise began with 2001's The Fast and the Furious, which saw Brian O'Conner infiltrate Dominic Toretto's group as an undercover cop. Even though they were on opposite sides of the law in the first Fast & Furious movie, Dom and Brian formed a special bond. The duo finally reunited in the fourth Fast & Furious movie. From there, every film in the franchise focused on their partnership as they led their crew.

Due to Paul Walker's tragic ing, his character Brian O'Conner hasn't appeared in the Fast & Furious franchise since Furious 7 in 2015.

Despite its humble beginnings, Fast & Furious has turned into one of the biggest action franchises in modern cinema, but ever since Furious 7, the saga has seemingly forgotten its biggest lesson from Vin Diesel and Paul Walker's exits. Dom Toretto (Diesel) and Brian O'Conner (Walker) have been the main protagonists of the franchise since the very first movie, but both characters have been absent from several projects. Vin Diesel's Dominic Toretto was replaced by Roman Pearce in Fast & Furious' second outing, while Paul Walker has been written out of the recent films, having sadly ed away in 2013.

Paul Walker's Furious 7 scenes were completed following the actor's death thanks to some help from his family and CGI work. The seventh Fast & Furious movie was rocked with tragedy when Walker was killed in a vehicular crash in November 2013, at which point Furious 7 was only partially done. Having played Brian O'Conner alongside Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) since the original The Fast and the Furious in 2001, Walker's tragic ing left a massive hole in The Fast Saga. Understandably, the movie's creative team gave serious thought to how to continue without a key member of the team.

Warning! Contains spoilers for Fast X!After Paul Walker tragically died in 2013 during the filming of Furious 7, the team faced the difficult task of giving Walker's character, Brian O'Conner, a proper send-off from the franchise. Indeed, Walker's Fast and Furious role has come to define the vast majority of the action, crime, and street racing movie saga. Producer Neal Moritz said that in the immediate aftermath of Walker's death, they were so lost that they thought they would have to cancel the movie, but instead, its ending had to be changed.

Letty Ortiz never backs down from a fight, nor does the character give up a chance to drive a memorable car in the Fast & Furious franchise. The character, played by Michelle Rodriguez, made her debut in 2001's The Fast and the Furious, the installment that launched the adrenaline-inducing film series. Despite initially serving as the love interest to Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Letty eventually emerged as a core figure in the series. Rodriguez once again portrayed the figure in the most recent sequel, Fast X.

As a veteran actor, Denzel Washington has played many iconic characters throughout his nearly 50-year-long career, but one rejected role in the Fast & Furious franchise saved him from a $2.7 billion disappointment. The Fast & Furious films are one of the most lucrative franchises being made today. Washington has a history of delivering great performances in action movies, so it tracks that he would be considered for a role in the high-octane series. However, Washington turned down the offer to appear in the films, and it's a good thing he did.
