The Family is back, you guys! The trailer for Fast and Furious 9, or F9, shows our Fast and Furious favorites as they take on a new threat. Not only did we see our favorite street racers, played by Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, but we also got to see a new Toretto sibling. The trailer shows Dom as he goes head to head with his brother, who is played by none other than John Cena!

Cena’s character Jakob is a skilled assassin and driver, and the crew must stop him and Cipher (Charlize Theron) from completing their nefarious plans, which takes the crew across the globe (and to the sky)! Fans were shocked and excited at the reveal of another Toretto sibling, and John Cena started to trend on Twitter!
I love how John Cena isn’t trending under entertainment or news or whatever. John Cena is trending under John Cena.
I’m impressed. pic.twitter.com/YgISuIi0Bp

Never thought I’d see the day where Ludacris and John Cena would be exchanging forearms on the hood of a Ford Mustang. Excited for this new Fast & Furious.

In another shocking twist, Han (Sung Kang) who died at the end of Tokyo Drift, is back!? And so are the Tokyo Drift boys who haven’t made an appearance in the franchise since 2006! Lucas Black, Bow Wow, and Jason Tobin are all seen in the trailer, which has Tokyo Drift fans excited.
