The latest Fast and Furious film deals with the consequences of the gang's actions since "Fast Five," when they stole $100 million from the criminal kingpin of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Although they are rich, they cannot go back to their homes, however.
"Meanwhile, Hobbs (Johnson) has been tracking an organization of lethally skilled mercenary drivers … whose mastermind (Evans) is aided by a ruthless second-in-command revealed to be the love Dom thought was dead, Letty (Rodriguez)," the synopsis for the film reads.
