The Fast & Furious franchise has come a long way since its humble beginnings in 2001, which was also when it first brought Vin Diesel and Paul Walkers brotherhood to the screen through their roles as Dominic Torreto and Brian OConner. Over the years, what started as a street racing action flick grew into a multi-billion dollar blockbuster series known for its high-octane car chases and deep-rooted themes of family.
