Dominic «Dom» Toretto is a fictional character and one of the two main protagonists of the Fast & Furious franchise. He is portrayed by Vin Diesel and first appeared on film, alongside the other protagonist Brian O’Conner, in The Fast and the Furious (2001). Dominic was created by screenwriter Gary Scott Thompson, who was inspired by an article on street racing that was published in the May 1998 issue of Vibe magazine, while Diesel was heavily sought after to play the character.^[2]

As the patriarch of a group of street racers, Dom acts as an influential voice, being forced into the role as primary caregiver following his father’s untimely passing. As the leader, he initially worked as an auto mechanic, but eventually progressed to orchestrating carjackings, a multi-million dollar heist, and illicit jobs for government agencies.

Dominic is gruff, strong, and possesses a volatile temper, especially when his family is in danger. He preaches morality and loyalty, and in many cases is also seen to be affectionate and religious. He is married to Letty Ortiz, with whom he raises a son.^[3] He is also implied to be the group’s strongest and most skilled racer, a title that is challenged persistently by Brian.

The role propelled Diesel to become a bankable Hollywood star. He won the 2002 and 2014 MTV Movie Awards for Best On-Screen Team with Paul Walker for his performances.^[3] Diesel has served as executive producer for the franchise’s later installments.^[4]

Development[edit]

The Fast and the Furious film series was inspired by an article on street racing, «Racer X», that appeared in the May 1998 issue of Vibe magazine.^[5] Having witnessed his father’s death in a stock car race, Dom is left with the responsibility of taking care of his younger sister, Mia Toretto, and leading the racers dependent on him.^[6] Vin Diesel was reportedly paid $2.5 million to star in The Fast and the Furious and $15 million to star in and produce Fast Five.^[3][7]

Appearances[edit]

Dominic Toretto is a fearless street racer, auto mechanic, and ex-convict. The character is the older brother of Jakob and Mia Toretto. Throughout the series, Dom’s crew has perpetrated many high-speed semi hijackings, stealing millions of dollars in merchandise. He has spent most of his life running from the law. He is married to Letty Ortiz, his longtime wife.

The Fast and the Furious[edit]

In the first film, Dom runs his own automotive garage while Mia takes care of the family’s grocery store in Echo Park. He also runs his own street race team, which consists of Letty, Vince, Leon, and Jesse. Dominic has a feud with his Vietnamese-American rival Johnny Tran due to a business deal that went sour and Tran catching Dom sleeping with his sister. Unknown to the public, he and his team drive black Honda Civic coupes and stage daring semi hijackings on the freeways, taking home millions of dollars in electronic appliances. He forms a friendship with rookie racer Brian Earl Spilner (Brian O’Conner), who saves him from arrest when the LAPD raid a street race gathering. When showing Brian the 1970 Dodge Charger he had been working with his father before he died, he reveals what happened to the latter: During the last stock car race of the season in 1989, Dominic watched as his father Jack was run off the track by another racer, Kenny Linder, when Linder’s car clipped his bumper. Jack was killed instantly when his stock car crashed into the wall at 120 miles per hour and burst into flames. Dominic remembered hearing his father screaming as he burned to death, but the people who witnessed the accident explained that his father had died before his car exploded. Dominic had been the one screaming. A week following the accident, Dominic encountered Linder and when given the opportunity, Dominic attacked Linder, beating him with a wrench. Dominic only intended to hit him once but lost control and kept attacking Linder it until he couldn’t lift his arm anymore. The result of Linder’s injuries rendered him unable to race, and Dominic was banned for life from the tracks. During the Race Wars, Johnny Tran blames Dominic for a raid by SWAT forces; the SWAT team came into his house, causing disrespect to his family. Dom then attacks him and is promptly led away by Vince, who tells him to «chill out».^{[clarification needed]} During a hijacking job gone wrong, Dominic discovers Brian’s true identity as undercover LAPD officer named Brian O’Conner. Following a drag race that ends with Dominic’s 1970 Dodge Charger getting totalled, Brian hands him the keys to his Toyota Supra, as law enforcement have found out that Toretto has stolen millions in electronics with his crew. Dom ends up escaping to Mexico, while Brian, now a wanted man himself for aiding a known felon, flees the state.

2 Fast 2 Furious[edit]

Dom plays no role in the second film’s events, but is only referenced when Brian tells Roman Pearce about him.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift[edit]

Dom makes a cameo appearance at the end of the film challenging Sean Boswell in a drift race with his gunmetal silver 1970 Plymouth Road Runner, which he won from his late friend Han.
This film takes place after the events of Fast & Furious 6 and before Furious 7.

Fast & Furious[edit]

In Fast & Furious, Dominic, Letty, and their gang lead a successful hijacking of a gasoline tanker in the Dominican Republic, but he abandons them shortly after to keep the authorities away from them. Dominic returns to L.A. upon hearing of Letty’s death at the hands of Fenix Calderon. He and Brian once again team up to take down Mexican drug dealer Arturo Braga, who had ordered Letty’s execution following a drug run. He later finds out Brian was the last person who had contact with Letty; this enrages him, and he attacks Brian before the latter explains that Letty came to him for help in clearing Dom’s name so he could return to Los Angeles. After successfully extraditing Braga back to the U.S., Dom turns himself in to the authorities and is sentenced to 25 years to life in prison without possibility of early parole. However, the bus carrying him is ambushed by Brian, Mia, Rico and Tego; once Dom is sprung from the bus wreckage, the group flees the U.S. as fugitives.

Fast Five[edit]

In the fifth, Dominic reunites with Brian, Mia and Vince in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. They quickly make an enemy of drug lord Hernan Reyes, who has them framed for the murder of three DEA agents during a drug run on a train. As a means to get even with Reyes, Dom and Brian form a team with Roman Pearce, Tej Parker, Han, Gisele Yashar, Rico and Tego to stage a bank heist and steal Reyes’ stash of US$100 million in cash. Elite bounty hunter and DSS federal agent Luke Hobbs is sent to Brazil to hunt down and capture Dom and his gang, but when he is ambushed by Reyes’ men, during which all of his team are killed, he forms an unlikely alliance with Dom and helps the gang execute their heist. Vince is badly wounded during the gunfight and later succumbs to his injuries. After killing Reyes, Hobbs allows Dom and his gang to leave Brazil with their stash by giving them a 24-hour window; Dom gives Vince’s share of the money to his wife and son. Hobbs’ partner Elena Neves also leaves the force and becomes Dominic’s new love interest.

Fast & Furious 6[edit]

In the sixth film, Dom once again encounters Hobbs, who offers him a job to help him hunt down mercenary Owen Shaw and his crime syndicate; Hobbs also reveals that Letty is alive and working for Shaw. Dom and Brian reassemble their gang (minus Rico and Tego, both of whom are in Monaco) in London for the mission, in exchange for a full pardon for all members and Letty’s safe return. During the chase, Dom is shot by Letty, and he later discovers that she is suffering from amnesia as a result of the explosion that nearly killed her in Fast & Furious. He saves her from falling to her death while the gang stops Shaw aboard a military tank on a bridge in Spain. Shaw, however, reveals his backup plan of kidnapping Mia, and uses her as leverage in order to be released from custody and allowed to leave with the top-secret microchip that was removed from the tank. Despite the death of Gisele, Dom and his gang defeat Shaw and kill his men while saving Mia and the microchip in a daring chase at a NATO military airfield. Hobbs grants their pardons, and Dom and his gang move back to his home in L.A. Seeing Dom and Letty back together for good, Elena bids him farewell and returns to working with Hobbs. In a post credit scene, Owen Shaw’s elder brother, Deckard Shaw, kills Han in Tokyo and calls Dom with a threatening message.

Furious 7[edit]

In Furious 7, it is revealed that Owen Shaw survived the events of the previous film but is comatose, and his older brother Deckard Shaw has gone rogue and is hunting Dom’s team. Some time after the events of Tokyo Drift and Fast and Furious 6, Dom and Letty have returned to L.A., but Letty later breaks up with Dom in order to find herself again after her memory loss. Meanwhile, Shaw kills Han in Tokyo (bridging the story between this film and Tokyo Drift) and sends a bomb to Dom’s house, blowing it up. After retrieving Han’s body from Sean Boswell in Tokyo, a revenge-driven Dom decides to take Shaw down alone, but is stopped by a Covert Ops leader and Hobbs’ friend Mr. Nobody. Nobody offers Dom a way to hunt Shaw through a software named «God’s Eye»; however he also must save its creator, a hacker named Ramsey, from terrorist leader Mose Jakande and his men. Agreeing to the deal, Dominic, Brian, Letty, Tej and Roman lead a daring rescue through the mountains of Azerbaijan and succeed in liberating Ramsey from her captors. Ramsey tells them that she sent God’s Eye to her friend Zafar in Abu Dhabi. After a successful retrieval of the God’s Eye (that also involved Dom and Brian jumping a vehicle through three buildings), they find Shaw’s hideout, but are ambushed by Jakande’s men; many of Nobody’s men are killed and Nobody himself is gravely injured, while Dom and Brian barely escape. Afterwards, Dom decides to take down Shaw and Jakande on their home turf in L.A. Dom and Shaw end up in an intense fight on the rooftop of a parking garage, while Brian and the others distract Jakande and Ramsey initiates a hack to shut down God’s Eye for good. They succeeded in doing so, and Jakande is killed when Dom hooks a bag of grenades onto his chopper (which Hobbs shoots) before crashing his vehicle, causing his friends to believe that he died in the process. Letty then reveals that she has regained her memories of their relationship (which also reveals that they were married somewhere in between the story of Los Bandoleros and Fast & Furious), and Dom recovers from being unconscious. After this, Brian decides to retire from the crew in order to spend time with his family. Dom leaves without saying goodbye, prompting Brian to catch up to him at an intersection, and the two have one last drive before parting ways.

The final drive scene was done to give Brian’s role a clean retirement and a send-off after the actor who portrays him, Paul Walker, died in a single vehicle accident back in 2013.

The Fate of the Furious[edit]

In the eighth film, Dom and Letty are now living in Cuba, where Dom is approached by a mysterious, seductive woman known as Cipher. After betraying his team during an operation in Berlin to steal an EMP device they were assigned to recover, it is revealed that Cipher — the true mastermind behind both the attempted creation of the Nightshade device in Fast & Furious 6 and the near-theft of the God’s Eye hacking device in Furious 7 — has captured Elena and Dom’s previously-unknown son, using them as blackmail tools to ensure Dom’s cooperation, later letting her right-hand man and second-in-command, Connor Rhodes to kill Elena. Despite Cipher’s dismissal of Dom’s views on family and her access to multiple surveillance systems, Dom manages to use his contacts to pass on a message to Magdalene Shaw, Deckard and Owen’s mother, allowing her to retrieve her sons and send them aboard Cipher’s plane via a tracking device slipped into Dom’s necklace. Once the Shaws retrieve his son, Dom kills Rhodes, avenging Elena’s death before rejoining his team and destroying a Russian nuclear submarine that Cipher was attempting to steal. Although Cipher escapes, Dom vows to Elena to protect their new son, naming the boy Brian after his brother-in-law and best friend.

F9[edit]

A now-retired Dom, who is raising little Brian on a farm with Letty, is called by Mr. Nobody to stop a genocide mission led by Dom’s estranged younger brother Jakob. It is revealed that Dom banished Jakob from the family because he believed that he caused their father’s death by sabotaging the stock car’s engine, causing it to burst into flames when it crashed. Dom and Jakob fight each other several times in the film, with Jakob going as far as to wanting Dom to either live under his shadow or get killed. Jakob reveals to Dom that he tampered with the car’s engine because their father told him to, as he was trying to throw the race to clear some debts, but his plan went wrong when Kenny Linder hit car with his by using his dirty tactics. Towards the end of the film, however, Dom and Jakob reconcile and team up in the film’s final battle in an attempt to defeat Cipher, although she escapes once more. As a way of making amends to Jakob, who had been branded a rogue agent, Dom gives him the keys to his car — just as Brian did for Dom several years ago — allowing him to evade custody.

Characterization[edit]

Dominic has been described as «a gruff but affectionate father to his loyal pack of renegades, providing them with barbecue, protection, and a rough moral code to live by.»^[8] Vin Diesel has described Dominic as «a character who is strong, who is a caretaker.»^[3] In contrast to Brian’s estranged relationship with his father, Dominic is shown to «put family first» and be very protective of Mia. He is also implied to be religious, insisting that all members in a dinner table say grace and that the first person to take a bite must bless the meal.

In The Fast and the Furious, Dominic’s volatile temper stems from a painful incident during his teenage years, when his father, a stock car racer, was killed in a race after a driver named Kenny Linder accidentally sent him to the wall at 120 mph. Distraught by his father’s death, Dominic assaulted Linder a week later with a torque wrench and left him hospitalized with severe head injuries. Dominic served time (2 years) in prison and was banned from racing for the attack. He nearly replicates the action while fighting Hobbs in Fast Five, only to (purposely) miss Hobbs’ head by an inch when Mia begs him to stop.

In Fast Five, Dominic recalls the influence his father had on him. His father would help Mia with her homework everyday and sending her to bed, he would stay up late reading the next chapter, to make sure he could help her the next day. On Sundays, the family would attend church and host a barbecue for the neighborhood; those who did not attend church would not be allowed at the barbecue.

However, Dominic is also obsessed with racing. In the first film, he says: «I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I’m free.» In The Fate of the Furious, Cipher repeats a similar phrase to Dominic to question his loyalty to his family.^[9]
Over the course of the series Dom exhibits the strength, stamina, and reflexes of a world-class athlete. He is also an excellent marksman and hand-to-hand combatant.

Cars[edit]

Dominic’s Charger[edit]

In four of the films, Dom drove his deceased father’s black 1970 Dodge Charger.^[10] In the first film, Dom tells Brian that he and his father built the 900 horsepower car, but that he had never driven it, because it «scares the shit out of [him].»^[11] Dom uses it to help Brian by attacking one of Tran’s henchmen. He later races Brian’s Supra with it; however, he totals it when he collides with a truck.

In Fast & Furious he sees that Letty has rebuilt it for him, as she was hoping that he would return to the United States. Later in the film, Dom takes it to Mexico and shields Brian’s car with it, but destroys it by running into a stack of propane canisters in the tunnels. In the final scene of the film, Brian is shown to have rebuilt it, and Dom recognizes the sound of the engine while riding in a prison bus. In Fast Five, it is shown that Brian brakes in front of the bus, causing the bus to collide with it and flip. Dom uses it throughout the film to win cars to test for their vault heist. Meanwhile, Hobbs uses it to track the location of Dom’s gang by having his men check camera feeds for a 1970 Charger. When Hobbs comes to arrest Dom, he crashes his Gurkha F5 into his Charger, cutting it in half, which triggers a fight between the pair.

In Furious 7, near the end of the movie he goes to his home which was recently blown up by Deckard Shaw, and in the garage is his Charger covered up. He uncovers it revealing the slightly different new look. He takes the Charger to the top of a rooftop where he faces Shaw in a game of chicken. When the parking lot is later collapsing due to missiles, Toretto ramps it off the building destroying it yet again.

The car appears hoodless in F9.

The car goes through some changes. In the first film, it is chrome trimmed, while in the fourth film it is black trimmed, with an extra grill cover. In the fifth film it is matte black, with black wheels and the supercharger removed. In the seventh film, Torretto’s Charger has the supercharger again. The car still has black trim but is no longer matte black but metallic black. Also a different set of rims. In F9, it once again resembles the first film with Silver Trim.

In Fast & Furious 6, Dom gives his nephew Jack a diecast replica of his black Charger, hoping to keep him away from Brian’s habits of favoring imports. Later in the film, Dom drives a maroon Dodge Charger Daytona, which is acquired by Tej Parker at a car auction in London. While it is not the same car as his signature black Charger, it is a direct nod to The Charger.

At the very end of Furious 7, Toretto is seen with the Project Maximus Ultra 1968 Dodge Charger.

In The Fate of the Furious, Toretto drives an armoured version of his usual Charger in the film’s final confrontation.

Biography

Early Life

Dominic Toretto was born August 29, 1976^[1] and he is the oldest child in the Toretto family. His father, Jack Toretto, was a professional stock car driver who earned a reputation on the track and his family, including his sister Mia Toretto and brother Jakob Toretto, owned and ran a market and cafe shop. As a child, Dominic befriended the likes of Vince during the third grade. At some point he also befriended Letty, a neighborhood local, around the time she was ten years old, based on their shared interest in cars. However, he never took a romantic interest in her until she was sixteen years old.^{[note 2][8]}

Dominic’s father

Dominic’s father was a proactive figure in his life. He helped Mia with her homework, reading ahead of chapters to help her the following day.^[1] The Toretto’s also attended church and held family barbecues for their neighbors.^[1] Dominic helped his father build what would become the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, «900 horses of Detroit muscle». His father used the Charger to participate in the Los Angeles County Raceway in nine seconds.^[8]. However, Dom’s father was facing some financial issues and was planning to fake his death to give the family a better life.

Death of a Father

During the last stock car race of the season of 1989, Dominic and his brother Jakob worked on their fathers pit crew along with another member, Buddy. Before the final lap, Jakob and Dominic were working on their fathers car. Dominic argued with the pit crew of another racer, Kenny Linder, who were talking poorly of the Toretto’s. As their father got back onto the track, he was run off the track by Kenny Linder when Linder’s car clipped his bumper. Dominic’s father was killed instantly when his stock car crashed into the wall at 120 miles per hour and burst into flames. Dominic remembered hearing his father screaming as he burned to death, but the people who witnessed the accident explained that his father had died before his car exploded. Dominic had been the one screaming.^[8]

A week following the accident, Dominic and Jakob were at the track sorting through their fathers possessions and encountered Linder, who was paying his respects. After Linder talks trash about their father, Dominic pulled Jakob back attacked Linder, beating him with a wrench. Dominic only intended to hit him once but lost control and kept attacking Linder it until he couldn’t lift his arm anymore. The result of Linder injuries rendered him unable to race, Dominic was banned for life from the tracks.^[8]

Criminal Activity

Dominic was sent to Lompoc Prison for assaulting Linder. Whilst in that prison, he met Tego Leo and Rico Santos. In addition to keeping up his family’s business, Dominic also engaged in major crimes with his friends, such as stealing major appliances from transporting trucks using their cars. Dominic also participated in illegal street races for money and to sustain his passion for racing.^[8]

Exiling his Brother

Whilst in Lompoc prison, Dominic came to the realisation that his fathers car was tampered with and that was the cause of the car blowing up. Dominic realises that Jakob was the last one to work on the car and he began to resent Jakob and blame him for his fathers death. After being released from prison in 1991, Dominic tracked down Jakob, who had become a proficient LA Street Racer, and challenged him to a race with the deal being if Dominic won, Jakob would have to leave LA and disappear forever. Dominic beat Jakob and as a result Jakob left LA and disappeared. Over the years Jakob’s hatred for his brother increased and eventually he would come back after Dominic.

The Fast and the Furious

Since Dominic’s release from prison, he continued running his family’s market with Mia. In addition he established a local automotive shop, which doubled as a front for his illegal street racing ventures at night. Dominic and his friends remained tied to the criminal life. In order to make more money on the side to support their livelihoods, they committed a series of highway robberies. Using black Honda Civics, Dominic, Jesse, Vince, Leon and Letty attacked four trucks and stole $1.6 million worth of major electronics. The only identifiers the truck drivers could give the Los Angeles Police Department were the neon-green lights on the underbelly of the Coupes.
Brian O’Conner, a undercover LAPD officer under the alias «Brian Earl Spilner», is he assigned to find out who is stealing the merchandise. Three weeks into his undercover assignment, he visits Toretto’s Market & Café to speak with Mia and order a tuna sandwich. Dominic, inside the market at the time, remains at the back of the store and listens in on their conversation. Following the arrival of his friends, Vince and Brian get into a fight about the number of times he’s visited the market.

Mia and Letty demanded that Dominic break up the fight. Reluctantly, Dominic leaves the market and intervenes in Vince’s fight with Brian. He questions the false name on Brian’s license and tells him to never visit their market again. When Brian protests, Dominic doubly fires him Harry’s store, The Racer’s Edge.

Later that night, Dominic and the others congregate at a local street race. Prior to the preparation of the race, Letty catches him flirting with two girls, Camille and Monica. When she doesn’t buy that he was merely speaking with them, he turns his attention to his friend Hector, who announces he accumulated over $2,000 worth of buy ins for the quarter mile race. With no money, Brian offers the pink slip to his 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse.

If he loses, the winner of the race gets his car. Dominic and the other racers oblige his terms. During the quarter mile, Dominic, driving a 1993 Mazda RX-7 is able to beat everyone, winning the money and Brian’s car. Brian, who comes in dead last, proudly claimed that he almost had Dominic. Unimpressed, Dominic relays that Brian never had him and was guaranteed to lose his car.

Leon warns Dominic and the other racers of the police’s arrival. Dominic runs with the rest of them. Driving into a parking garage, Dominic hides his Mazda and continues his escape on foot. When he is caught by the police, he runs down an alley. Brian appears in time and gives him a ride. Brian evades the police with little incident. Dominic assures Brian that he’s gained his trust, but wasn’t keeping his car.

When he asks if Brian ever committed any felonies, Brian downplays his offenses. Using the information he was given by Jesse (who ascertained Brian’s falsified records online), Dominic brings up his history of grand theft auto. Brian shifts the conversation to Dominic and asks if he ever did time in prison. Dominic mentions his two year stint Lompoc, a place he would die to avoid.

Dominic and Brian are surrounded by Johnny Tran and his crew. Dominic, realizing too late that they’ve strayed into Tran’s territory, tries to explain that it was an unavoidable mistake made by his “new mechanic”, Brian. Tran questions the ownership of the Mitsubishi. Dominic deflects Brian’s immediate association to the Mitsubishi and tells him that he doesn’t own it on account not taking delivery. Tran declares the car belongs to no one and appears to leave. However, he doubles back and destroys the Mitsubishi. During the beginning of their hike back to the city, Dominic explains that bad blood between himself and Tran was the result of a business deal gone sour and sleeping with his sister.

They catch taxi back to the Toretto House. When Brian returns, Dominic decides to invite him. He uses Brian’s presence against his crew to remind them that none of them thought to look for him when they escaped the street race and returned to his house. Dominic creates more discord between Vince and Brian by offering Brian the Corona he takes from Vince. Dominic is forced to leave the first floor of the house to entertain Letty, who wanted a message. Before heading upstairs, Dominic reminds Brian that he owes him a ten second car.

The following day, Brian arrives to Dominic’s garage with a rusted 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV. While Dominic is unimpressed with the state of the car, Jesse is confident it can be restored. During the repairs of the Supra, Brian slowly gains Dominic’s trust. His cover is nearly blown by Vince, who correctly assumes that Brian is a cop when he and Dominic catch him leaving Hector’s garage. An uncertain Dominic chooses to believe that Brian was trying to figure out what Hector and Johnny Tran were going to use on their cars for the Race Wars event. Brian takes them to Tran’s garage, where they find several electronics similar to the ones stolen from the four truck robberies and cars without engines.

When Dominic learns that Brian has begun seeing his sister, Mia, Dominic warns Brian he’ll break his neck if he breaks her heart. Brian’s confidence that he wouldn’t hurt Mia lead to Dominic showing him his father’s 1970 Dodge Charger. Dominic explains the history of the car he built with his father and the regrettable actions that led to his attacking a stock car racer, Kenny Linder, who he believed was responsible for the stock car accident that killed his father.

With only thirty six hours to pin the truck thefts on Dominic, Brian becomes aggressive with his attempts to earn Dominic’s trust. Following a brief race with a Ferrari owner, Dominic and Brian have lunch at a grill. Brian comes forward with his assumptions, that Dominic was earning more money than the market and garage could get him and asked for an in on Dominic’s side business. Instead of giving him an in, Dominic gives Brian the directions to the Race Wars.

At the event, Dominic and his crew set up and prepare for the races. Jesse loses his Volkswagen Jetta to Johnny Tran in a race, he flees the scene with Johnny’s car. Angry, Tran accuses Dominic of selling him out to the police. Dominic attacks Tran, declaring that he would never sell anyone out to the police. When he is pulled away from Tran, Dominic and Vince appear to leave the event. Later that night, Dominic gets into a fight with Mia, who tries to stop him from committing the fifth truck theft with Letty, Vince and Leon.

He refuses to listen to her and leaves with the others. They meet at a lookout outside of Thermal where the Honda Civics was hidden. Letty, Vince and Leon express uncertainty about trying to attack another truck without Jesse. Dominic assures the crew that they would be taking a “long vacation” after the fourth truck score and tells Letty that he had a dream about their being in Mexico together.

On the road, Dominic and Vince position themselves in front of the truck. When Vince is able board the front of the truck, the driver fires on him with a shotgun. The crew’ plans fall apart when Vince is tangled into the harpoon wire and stuck on the side of the truck. Letty is driven off the road and Dominic’s Civic is damaged by shotgun fire.

Dominic is unable to reach Vince and is forced to stop. He is later picked up by Leon, who helped Letty after her car was run off the road. He helps Mia and Brian try to stabilize Vince, who was critically wounded. Brian exposes his identity was a cop in order to get Vince immediate help from a hospital. When Vince was airlifted out of the desert, Dominic and Mia join Leon and Letty and leave Brian behind.

Dominic fails to pay attention to the road afterward and is side swiped by an unexpected truck and his car flips over. Dominic survives the roll the Dodge makes, but the car is too damaged to use. With the police on the approach, Brian gives Dominic the keys to his Supra, stating that he still owed him a ten-second car. Dominic takes the keys and escapes.

2 Fast 2 Furious

Dominic is mentioned several times by Agent Bilkins and U.S Customs Agent, Markham. Roman Pearce, Brian’s childhood friend, often questioned the history he had with Dominic, considering it led to his then present life as an ex-LAPD officer on the run. Brian confesses to Roman that he let Dominic go because he felt responsible for not being to help him when Roman was arrested and imprisoned for three years for harboring stolen cars.^[9]

Los Bandoleros

Dominic has since left Mexico and relocated to the Dominican Republic. He has befriended the likes of fellow locals, Tego Leo and Rico Santos, Cara Mirtha, and Malo. He appeared to live at Santos’ residence with this family. At some point Leo was arrested. Upon Han’s arrival in the Dominic Republic, Dominic and Santos are preparing to break Leo out of prison. They enjoy a brief dinner with Santos’ family before heading out.

When Leo is freed, they head to a local club to meet with wealthy local, Elvis. Elvis informs them of a window of opportunity to hijack a gas shipment on a tanker. Dominic makes a deal with the man to be ready to steal the gas and give it to the people, so long as he honors his word. While relaxing at the club afterwards, Dominic is reunited with Letty Ortiz, who tracked him from Mexico. The two drive together to the beach, where they rekindle their relationship.

Fast & Furious

Dominic and his new crew planned a score where they would steal fuel from a tanker in the Dominican Republic. Despite minor complications, they are able to make off with the gas. At a party, celebrating their theft, the crew decides to go their separate ways with their share of the money made off the score. Han informs Dominic that the police shut down their garage in Baracoa. Dominic, knowing that it would only be a matter of time that he would be caught, Dominic and Han bid each other farewell.

When Dominic tries to break away from Letty, she reminds him of their vow to «ride or die» together. However, despite their conversation, Dominic decides to go off on his own, leaving his share of the money and the cross to Letty.

In Panama, Dominic gets a call from his sister, Mia, who tells him that Letty has been murdered in a fatal car accident. Dominic returns to Los Angeles and reunites with Mia, who takes him the scene of Letty’s murder.

Dominic finds traces of nitromethane at the scene. He visits the only car mechanic that uses nitromethane and “coerces” him into giving him the name David Park, the man who ordered the fuel. Meanwhile, the now FBI agent Brian O’Conner is trying to track down a drug dealer named Arturo Braga, and the search leads him to Park as well. Dominic arrives at Park’s apartment first and hangs him out of the window by his ankles before letting go. Brian, who was also on his way to Park’s place, saves Park.

Dominic and Brian later meet at street race in Los Angeles and compete to become Arturo Braga’s new drivers. The winner will become the last driver on a team that traffics heroin between the United States-Mexico borders. Dominic wins the race after causes Brian to lose control of his 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34. However, Brian is able to become one of Braga’s drivers after he arrests another driver and takes his place on the team.

The following day, at a party, Dom and Brian talk to Campos, one of Braga’s men, while teasing each other on how their past ventures and profiles could get in the way of their job. Afterwards, Dominic examines the garage under the club, and is approached by Gisele Yashar, a woman working for Braga, who develops feelings for Dominic, who does not reciprocate.

Dominic and Brian later meet Fenix Calderon, another one of Braga’s men. Dominic learns that Fenix is responsible for Letty’s murder. They drive across the border using underground tunnels to avoid detection. Brian had prior knowledge that after the heroin was delivered, Braga ordered the drivers to be killed. After a tense stand-off, Dominic detonates his car with nitrous to distract Braga’s men and Brian hijacks a Hummer with US$60 million worth of heroin, taking a gunshot-wounded Dominic with him.

Both Dominic and Brian drive back to Los Angeles and hide the heroin in a police impound lot where Dom «gives» a modified 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX STi GH to Brian to pay for his car. They reunite with Mia at Brian’s house, where they have dinner and Brian tells his superiors that in exchange for Dominic’s pardon, he would lure Braga into a trap. The trap would force him to show up to exchange money for the heroin. At the drop site, however, the man who claims to be Braga is a decoy and Campos, the real Braga, escapes and flees to Mexico, almost running over Gisele. Dominic saves Gisele from being hit by Braga.

Afterward, Gisele decides to help Dominic and Brian catch Braga. Brian and Dominic travel to Mexico on their own to catch Braga. Gisele thanks Dominic by giving the location of Braga’s hideout. They find him at a church and apprehend him. As Braga’s men, led by Fenix, pursue Dominic and Brian across Mexico. Dominic and Brian drive through the underground tunnels back to the United States. When some of Braga’s men are killed, Brian crashes his car and is injured after being T-boned by Fenix at the end of the tunnel.

Dominic survived the explosion inside the tunnel, exchanged his 1970 Dodge Charger with a 1973 Chevrolet Camaro F-Bomb. Emerging from the tunnel, he approaches Fenix and Brian at high speed. Brian grabbed Fenix by the ankles and prevents him from escaping. Dominic rams Fenix with the Camaro and kills him, pinning him against the wreck of another car. The police begin to arrive on the scene.

Brian tries to get Dominic to escape before they can catch him. Dominic refuses to leave Brian’s side, saying he’s tired of running. Following Dominic’s arrest he is brought to court. Despite Brian’s request for clemency, the judge sentences Dominic to twenty five years to life in Lompoc with no possibility of parole.

Dominic is herded onto the prison transport to Lompoc. During his transit, he is pursued by Mia, Leo, Santos and Brian, who intend on breaking him out. Dominic catches sight of their cars as they prepare to crash the bus.

Fast Five

Brian, Mia, Leo and Rico crash the prison bus that was taking Dominic back to Lompoc. Following their escape, the three become wanted felons. Dominic separates himself from Brian and Mia and travels to Ecuador. During his time in the country, he reestablishes contact with Vince, who is living in Rio de Janeiro. Dominic presumably agrees to Vince’s plan to steal several cars from a train traveling outside of the city. His arrival to Rio is delayed.

When he arrives at the train with Vince, they are accompanied by a man named Zizi and one other accomplice. Dominic grows suspicious of Zizi’s intentions when the man announces he is taking the Ford GT40. He tells Mia to take the GT40, despite the disagreement voiced by Zizi and his man. Dominic supersedes Zizi’s orders to meet at the “same place” where Vince went and told Mia to wait for his call.

When Mia veers off Zizi’s planned course, he tries to shoot her. Brian and Dominic fight Zizi and his men off long enough to escape 1963 Chevrolet Sting Ray Grand Sport. They drive the vehicle over the cliff and free fall into the water below the train’s bridge. When they surface, they are taken hostage by Zizi and his men.

Inside of a warehouse, Dominic and Brian meet Hernan Reyes, the man who arranged for the theft of the cars; he asks them to give up the location of the GT40 in exchange for their freedom. When they fail to cooperate, Reyes promises to hurt Mia when his men find her and the GT40. When Reyes and Zizi escape, Dominic and Brian overpower their captors and escape.

When regroup with Mia at their “safe house” and learn that they’ve been framed for the murder of the DEA agents that were aboard the train. When Vince arrives at their safe house, Brian immediately accuses him of setting them up. Dominic breaks up the fight, choosing to believe Vince is telling them the truth.

Later that night Dominic observes Vince and watches him take the computer chip that was hidden within the GT40. Feeling his trust was betrayed, Dominic refuses to listen to Vince, who tried to explain that Reyes merely wanted the chip, and exiled his friend. Before he leaves, Vince reminds Dominic that his refusal to listen to him before back in Los Angeles led to the destruction of life and family, Letty’s death included.

The following day, their safe house is ambushed by Zizi and his men. Dominic, Mia and Brian are forced run. Dominic separates himself from Brian and Mia, leading Zizi and most of his men away from them. Running through the favelas, Dominic is pursued by DSS Agent, Luke Hobbs. During his escape, he encounters police local, Elena Neves, who holds him at gunpoint before he saves her from Reyes’ men.

Dominic escapes before Hobbs’s team can catch him, but loses his cross necklace. When they reunite, Dominic tells Brian and Mia to go to the south while he takes care of Reyes’ men. Brian agrees with Dominic’s plan until Mia announces her pregnancy. Elated, Dominic remains with his sister and Brian. Switching gears, the three of them decide to organize a crew to steal the $100 million dollars’ worth of laundered money from Reyes.

Dominic calls in Han, Santos and Giselle, who join Roman Pearce and Tej Parker as the crew to take down Reyes. Dominic and the others ambush one of Reyes’ laundering houses and burn the money, threatening to do the same thing to all other houses. As Dominic predicted, Reyes secures the rest of his money into a single place in a local police department. Dominic and Han call in a favor from his friend, Armando, who manages to deliver an identical bank vault to the one Reyes was using to keep his money safe.

Dominic makes plans to secure cars for their heist. However, because Dominic and Han were caught on CCTV cameras in the city, the entire crew is identified by Luke Hobbs’ team. At a local street race, Dominic and the others are cornered by Hobbs who intends to arrest all of them. However, Dominic uses the local’s resentment of authority to his advantage with several armed men, who refuse to allow Hobbs to arrest them.

Hobbs and his team retreat. Dominic and the others use the tracking device Tej placed on Hobbs’ vehicle to maintain vigilance on whereabouts. Dominic, realizing that Elena still had his cross, breaks into to Elena’s house to recover his cross. He waited until Elena entered her house and disarmed herself. He attacks her, slamming her up against the wall. He waits until he’s sure she won’t scream.

When he removes his hand takes the cross from around her neck. Elena demand to know why he would risk exposing himself to her for “$20 worth of silver”. Dominic merely tells her the cross was worth it. Before he leaves, Elena inquires if Letty was special. Dominic answers in the affirmative, knowing that she understood his loss.

The following night, Dominic, Brian, Roman and Han head for police department parking lot and steal four police cruisers for the heist. They decide to have a quarter mile race for a million dollars. Dominic purposely forfeits the race at the last second to let Brian win as a present for his nephew.

When Vince saves Mia from Reyes’ men at a street market, he earns Dominic’s trust back. During dinner, Brian and Mia officially announce the pregnancy to the crew. Dominic proposes a toast to important thing in their lives: Family.

When they locate Hobbs’s hummer, Dominic and the others set their plans in motion. However, Hobbs’ team raids the safe house. Hobbs destroys Dominic’s charger and reveals that he planted a tracking device on one of their cars. Dominic, furious upon having his beloved car crashed, fights brutally with Hobbs but quickly found himself to be facing a superior and stronger fighter in Hobbs and despite landing a few shots, is ultimately overpowered and restrained. Although he eventually bests Hobbs when seeing Mia and Brian in danger, Mia’s pleads for him to stop eventually causes him to surrender and allow himself and the others to be arrested. While transporting them to an airport for extradition to the United States, the convoy is attacked by Reyes’ men.

Dominic and the others are released by Elena and aid Hobbs in fighting back against Zizi and their men. They kill every man except Zizi and escape. On the way back to their safe house, Dominic learns that Vince was fatally wounded. Before he dies, Vince tells Dominic that he named his son, Nico, after him. Dominic, fueled by revenge and regret, aligns himself with Hobbs, who wants revenge for his teammates who were murdered by Reyes’ men.

The heist begins the following day. Hobbs and Elena smash the hummer through the police station, allowing Dominic and Brian access to the vault. Using the wire tethers, they attach the vault to their cars and pull it out of the station. Dominic and Brian led the police through the city, destroying buildings and cars with the vault dragging behind them. When the two meet the others under the bridge, they switch vaults.

Han, Gisele and Leo take the vault with the money and hide it using a dump truck. Dominic and Brian resume their chase and leads the police to the bridge outside of the city. On the bridge, Dominic attempts to sacrifice himself, and tells Brian to escape with Mia. Despite his sister’s protests, he releases Brian’s car off the vault, and turns back.

He accelerates and uses the vault to take out the remaining police cars. Dominic abandons his car, letting the vault crash into Reyes’ car. Dominic is almost shot by Zizi. However, Brian shows up and kills Zizi. Hobbs and Elena arrive soon after and Hobbs shoots Reyes in the heart.

Hobbs refuses to let Dom go free. However, unwilling to arrest him, agrees to give Dominic and the others a 24-hour head start, but without the money. Dominic and Brian leave before Hobbs discovers the empty vault, and returns to the safe house. After taking their share of Reyes’s $100 million, the group part ways to start new lives outside of the United States. Dominic leaves Vince’s share of the money with his wife Rosa and his son Nico, along with a letter saying «See you soon — Uncle Dom».

Some time later, Dominic and his sister have relocated to the Canary Islands in Spain. Brian and a pregnant Mia relax on a beach where they are met by Dominic and Elena, who began a relationship. Dominic watches his sister speak with Elena, relieved to see her happy. Brian challenges Dominic to a final, no-stakes race to prove who the better driver is.

Fast & Furious 6

Dominic and Brian race to the local church where Mia is giving birth to her son, Jack. Before Brian enters the church, Dominic tells him that nothing else except Mia’s child is important and their old lives would be left behind. Some time later, Hobbs appears at Dominic’s house and tries to recruit him in his effort to catch an ex-British Special Forces soldier named Owen Shaw. A skeptical Dom demanded to know what he would gain from helping Hobbs. Hobbs reveals the information on Letty provided him by Monica Fuentes. Elena encourages Dominic to help Hobbs, explaining that she would do the same if it were her husband.

Dominic agrees to help, but without his team. Hobbs rejects Dominic’s terms, explaining that Shaw’s team was too dangerous and the entire group was required to taken him down. Reluctantly, Dominic contacts Roman, Tej, Han and Gisele. Afterwards, Dominic visits Brian, Mia and Jack. He gifts his nephew with a replica 1970 Dodge Charger toy, assured that he would take more after the Toretto family’s taste in cars than Brian and his love for imports.

Later, Dominic reveals to Brian Hobbs’s information on Letty, who is running with Owen Shaw’s team in London, England. Brian believed Hobbs was trying to manipulate Dominic into helping him, confident that Letty was dead despite the lack of a body. Dominic, however, needed to know for certain that his wife was dead. Mia asks them both to bring Letty home to reunite the family.

In London, Dominic and the others reunite at a headquarters. Hobbs explains the situation with Shaw, who was attempting to construct a device known as “Nightshade”, capable of disabling an entire country’s power for 24 hours, and sell it for billions. Dominic and the others agree to help Hobbs on the stipulation that they are all given full pardons, their criminal records erased. Hobbs obliges the terms. Dominic follows Hobbs and Riley Hicks, to Shaw’s hideout while Brian and the other head for Interpol to prevent the theft of a databank containing information on the locations of the missing components of the Nightshade.

Shaw escapes the police in his Flip Car, while destroying the garage. Dominic and Hobbs pursue Shaw through the city and meet up with the rest of the team, who are pursuing the rest of Shaw’s team. Traveling through a tunnel, Dominic and Hobbs go after Shaw. During the pursuit, Dominic is led away from Shaw by Letty, who Dominic immediately recognizes. Dominic pursues Letty until he manages to force her car to stop by bumping its rear. When Dominic steps out of his car he is shot in the shoulder by Letty, who flees immediately after.

The following day, Brian tracks the origin of Letty’s PSM pistol. Dominic and Brian visit the pawn shop where she and Dominic interrogated the owner. Dominic learns that Letty attended local street races in the city. When the team returns to the safe house, Gisele informs them that Shaw is working with Braga. Dominic agrees with Brian’s plan to visit Braga in prison as a prisoner in order to interrogate him.

After having Han ask around, Dominic heads for the street race Letty was attending. The two exchange words, Letty was impressed that Dominic would show his face after she shot him. Before the race begins proper, Dominic uses her words, “ride or die”, in the hopes of triggering her memories. Near the end of their race, Letty signals Dominic to pull over. After they stop, the two talk. Dominic reveals little bits of information about Letty’s past with him when she refuses to believe that he knows her.

He uses the scars she earned before and after she “died” as a talking point. Dominic mentions the night she saved him after they first raced each other, the time she crashed her Ford Torino Cobra when she was in Boyle Heights with his sister, Mia. He mentions the scar below her pants line was earned when they were in the Dominican Republic together.

Before Letty leaves, Dominic gives her the cross necklace. Soon after, Shaw arrives in an Aston Martin DB9 to confront Dominic about Letty. Shaw threatens to use Letty against him, knowing that his loyalty to Letty and his code makes him vulnerable. Dominic is targeted by Adolfson with a sniper-rifle, after Dominic refuses to cease in his effort to bring Shaw to justice. Shaw is forced to back down when Hobbs reveals himself and targets him with his own sniper rifle. When Shaw departs, Hobbs tells Dominic that he planted a tracking device on Dominic. Dominic, aware of the fact, returns the tracking device to Hobbs.

Shaw’s next operation involved getting hold of a powerful Computer Processing Unit, which meant having to steal a tank from a military base in Spain. Dominic and the others follow after Shaw, who hijacked a tank in a military convoy. Following the destruction of Roman’s 1969 Ford Mustang Fastback, Dominic tells Brian to use the crushed vehicle as an anchor to stop Shaw’s tank. Brian in the Ford Escort MK I, follows Dominic’s order and uses Roman’s car, tied to the nose of the tank by Roman, as an anchor and stop the tank.

Letty is ordered by Shaw to remove the wire from around the nose of the tank. Dominic, realizing that Letty was in danger, crashes his 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona into the wall of the opposite side of the highway and launches himself across the gap when Letty is thrown off the top of the tank. Dominic catches Letty and they land on top of a car on the other side of the highway bridge.

Following the failure of Owen’s tank operation, Shaw is apprehended along with the members of the team that were with him. However, Shaw revealed to Dominic and the others that his team had kidnapped Mia. They use her as a bargaining chip, forcing Dominic and Hobbs to allow Owen and his team to leave with the billion-pound CPU. Riley reveals herself as a double agent working with Owen Shaw and leaves with Shaw’s team. Letty, remains with Dominic and his team.

The team race to catch Shaw on an airstrip. Shaw gets aboard an aircraft. Letty, Dominic, Brian and Hobbs board on the airplane to save Mia, while the others attempt to stop the air plane from taking off. Dominic fights Klaus and Shaw with Hobbs. When Klaus is defeated and Mia secured, Hobbs, Letty, Brian and Mia escape the plane using the cars in the cargo plane. Dominic continues to fight. When Shaw tries to escape in his Humvee, Dominic pursues him. Dominic is able to grab the Nightshade device and jumps out of the Humvee. Shaw is launched from the car and falls off the airplane to an apparent death.

The plane crashes and explodes. Dominic uses one of the Dodge Chargers to escape the plane before he is killed. The Charger flips when it loses traction on the air strip and rolls, crashing nearby the burning wreckage. While the crew fears the worst has happened to Dominic, he emerges from the wreckage, relatively unharmed. Following the incident in London, Dominic and the others return to Los Angeles to the Toretto House.

During their family barbecue, Elena and Hobbs visit the Toretto House with news that their criminal records were wiped clean. Elena and Dominic talk. Elena, acknowledging that their relationship is over, tells him that she is fine that he chose Letty over her. The team enjoys their freedom back in Los Angeles.

Dominic travels to Tokyo to bring the remains of Han back to the United States after he’s killed by Deckard Shaw, Owen Shaw’s older brother.^[5] Beforehand, he asks Twinkie to speak with Sean Boswell, the Drift King of Tokyo following the defeat of Takashi. Prior to the race, Dominic reveals to Sean that he won his a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner from Han in a race. He then proceeds to race Sean who drives his Nissan Silvia S15.

Furious 7

At the beginning of Furious 7, Dom is first seen driving a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with Letty through the desert trying to help her regain her memories. It is revealed that he is driving to Race Wars (the event from the first film). After seeing Letty win a race, he tries to congratulate her but she has a memory attack, punches Hector, one of the first film’s characters, and then drives off. After that Dom reunites with Hector. Dom later finds Letty in a graveyard where she was presumably buried. He tries to destroy the grave with a sledgehammer but Letty stops him, saying it’s the truth and she has to find herself. After that, she kisses Dom goodbye and leaves him.

Dom later visits Mia, Brian, and his nephew Jack at the old Toretto home, with a package from Tokyo out on the front porch. As Brian puts Jack in his minivan, Mia explains to Dom that he is struggling with his life and she is pregnant again, with a little girl. Dom tells Mia that she is the best thing that has ever happened to Brian. As Mia walks down the front walkway, he gets a call from Deckard Shaw, older brother of Owen Shaw saying, «Dominic Toretto, you don’t know me. You’re about to.» As he hangs up, he realizes the package is actually a bomb. Yelling «get down!», he grabs Mia and holds her down as the bomb explodes, destroying the Toretto home. As Mia gets up running towards Brian and Jack, Dom looks at the burnt remains of the demolished Toretto home.

Dom later learns Luke Hobbs was put in the Hospital (caused by Shaw after setting off a bomb at his headquarters after engaging in a brutal fight with him) and visits him. After briefly meeting his daughter, Samantha Hobbs, Dom learns from Hobbs that Shaw is a lethal British special forces assassin seeking to avenge his brother. After finding out that Shaw is the one that killed his friend Han in Tokyo and sent the bomb that destroyed his home, Hobbs asks him one favor when he finds Shaw; «don’t miss».

As Dom leaves the Hospital, he calls his sister, who is in the Dominican Republic for safety held by Dom’s friend, Armando and tells her it looks like the sins of London have followed them home. He then tells her to tell Brian he’ll see him in LA in two days because he is going to Tokyo to bring Han’s body home. As he arrives in Tokyo, he meets and races Sean Boswell, the new drift king. After the race (it is revealed that Dom won), Sean gives Dom a couple things he found in Han’s car after the crash. He gives him a picture of Gisele Yashar, and Dom’s cross necklace. After that Sean asks when he finds Shaw, what will he do. Dom responds by saying, «Words haven’t been invented yet.»

At Han’s funeral, Dom puts the picture of Gisele right next to the picture of Han on top of his grave. After that, Dom sees a car nearby spying on him, Brian, Tej, and Roman. Learning it is Shaw, he gets in his Plymouth Road Runner and chases the car out of the graveyard and throughout the streets of LA. As Shaw lures him into an underground tunnel with his Maserati Ghibli, The two play a game of chicken and both damage their cars as they charge toward each other. As they both get out of their vehicles face-to-face for the first time, Shaw tells him that their from different worlds and that he has seen a lot meaner streets than the ones Dom is used to. After that Dom pulls out his sledgehammer he had earlier and tells him it is gonna get a lot meaner. Although Shaw pulls a gun on him and says, «You thought this was gonna be a street fight.» But before Shaw can shoot Dom, a team of covert ops soldiers appear and shoot at Shaw, forcing him to flee. As the soldiers force Dom on the ground, Dom attacks one of them and strangles him. When the soldiers demand Dom to let him go, their leader, an unknown agent referred to as «Mr. Nobody», tells them to back off since they are on the same team. Mr. Nobody informs Dom that he can help get Shaw.

Dom is brought with him to a convert ops command center and is told by Mr. Nobody that they can help each other get what they both need. Mr. Nobody later informs him that a hacker known only as Ramsey has been captured by a wanted terrorist named Mose Jakande because he is pursuing something Ramsey helped develop called God’s Eye, which is a surveillance system that can spot anybody from anywhere in the world. Using this, Dom can locate Shaw and take him down. As Dom accepts this offer, he is joined by Brian, Tej, Roman, and later Letty, who came back. After discussing how to get to their location, the guys come up with a plan to infiltrate the bus that is carrying Ramsey, while Dom asks Tej to help him put armor on one car.

The plan involves the five dropping from a jet in their cars and carefully land close to their target. Roman gets cold feet, prompting Tej to pull the chute out on him and sucking him out of the plane. The other four land close to the bus and break in. As the four cars ride through the Caucasus Mountains in Azerbaijan, they find the convoy but are spotted by Jakande’s men, who then shoot at the team. Brian hops on the bus and fights off the guards. He finds Ramsey in her cell and has her jump off the bus and onto the hood of Dom’s car for safety. As Dom is able to get Ramsey in his car, he is attacked by a fast attack vehicle and the driver is revealed to be Shaw, who followed them and leads them both through the woods and right next to a steep cliff. As Shaw attempts to knock Dom’s car off the cliff, Roman appears and knocks Shaw off the road. However, Jakande himself and his team find Dom. Before they can get him, he drives his car off a cliff, yet he and Ramsey miraculously survive.

Later, Dom and the team revive Ramsey, who tells them that she gave God’s Eye to a friend of hers in Abu Dhabi. They all travel there and meet this person, Safar, who says he sold God’s Eye to a prince. The team goes undercover to a party that the prince is throwing. Dom and Brian find that God’s Eye is in a car. Letty ends up fighting three guards and the prince’s head bodyguard Kara. Kara alerts the guards that there are intruders, keeping Tej and Ramsey out of their systems. Dom and Brian drive the car out of there before the gates shut the place down. Shaw comes out and tries to shoot at Dom, until he drives out of the building and through the next one. Dom discovers that the breaks are out, forcing him and Brian to jump to the next building. The two jump out of the car and pull God’s Eye out before the car slides out and crashes to the ground below.

With God’s Eye and the arrival of Mr. Nobody, Ramsey is able to track Shaw, who drove a Lamborghini Aventador outside Abu Dhabi to an abandoned factory. Dominic, Brian, Mr. Nobody, his right-hand man Sheppard, and the rest of his team track Shaw down and attempt to capture him. But it is revealed that Shaw is not alone. They are ambushed by Jakande and his militants, who Shaw joined forces with. During the gunfight, Sheppard is killed by Jakande, Mr. Nobody is shot and wounded by Jakande’s right-hand man, Kiet. Dom carries him out of there with Brian, and Jakande gets his hands on God’s Eye, which Brian and Dom are forced to leave. After they leave the factory, Mr. Nobody calls for medical assistance, and tells Dom that he will be leaving him from there, but not before telling hims to take down Shaw and protect Ramsey from Jakande since they will be coming for her because they know she can lock them out of God’s Eye.

After leaving Mr. Nobody in the desert to be evacuated by a helicopter, the team decides to return to their hometown, Los Angeles to fight Shaw and Jakande as they are left with no other choice. Upon arriving in LA, Brian and the rest of the team decide to deal with Jakande, while Dom will deal with Shaw. Letty tells Dom that it feels like she’s not going to see him again. Dom then puts his necklace on her, promising he will return for it. Dom later goes to the garage right by his destroyed home. Inside, he uncovers his old 1970s Dodge Charger and prepares for later that night.

While the others are dealing with Jakande, Dom finds Shaw in the streets driving an Aston Martin, and lures him to a parking lot where they have their final showdown. They attempt to play another game of chicken, but as they charge toward each other, Dom is able to lift the front of his car up at full speed and it crushes the front part of Shaw’s car. After backing out, Shaw gets out of his crushed vehicle, drops his firearm and pulls out an unknown metal stick from his car, but Dom pulls a shotgun on him saying, «You thought this was gonna be a street fight?» referring to what Shaw said earlier. As Shaw grins, Dom shoots his shotgun away from him, throws it back into his car and pulls out a pipe and a wrench, saying, «You’re goddamn right it is.» As Shaw rips off another unknown metal stick from his vehicle, the two engage in an epic one-on-one brawl all over the roof of the parking garage. During the fight, Shaw manages to gain the upper hand, but after he kicks Dom toward his car, he sees a pack of grenades in Shaw’s car and as Shaw strikes him again, Dom starts to throw him around. Shaw hits Dom with one of his sticks after Dom body slammed him, before Jakande intervenes and attacks them both thinking Shaw is no longer useful to him, and Shaw is defeated when part of the parking garage collapses beneath him, which Dom stomps.

As Jakande prepares to kill Dom, Hobbs, who broke out of the hospital, attacks Jakande’s helicopter with a mini-gun. With the distraction from Hobbs, Dom grabs the grenades from Shaw’s crushed vehicle and drives away through the parking garage, but Jakande’s pilot fires missiles at him, destroying the parking garage. As Dom sees a ramp ahead of him, he then launches his vehicle at Jakande’s helicopter, tossing Shaw’s bag of grenades onto its skids, before injuring himself when his car lands and crashes. Hobbs then shoots the bag of grenades from ground level, destroying the helicopter and killing Jakande. When Dom remains unconscious, the team fears that he is dead. As Letty cradles Dom’s body in her arms, she reveals that she has regained her memories, and that she remembers their wedding. Dom regains consciousness soon after, remarking, «It’s about time».

After Shaw is locked up in a CIA black site prison by Hobbs, Dom and his team are later seen on a beach with Mia and Jack. As He, Letty, Roman, Tej, and Ramsey watch Brian play with his family, they acknowledge that Brian is better off retired with his family. They realize this is where he belongs, and they look at them lovingly. Dom gets up to leave. Ramsey asks if he’s gonna say goodbye. Dom says, «It’s never goodbye.» He drives away, but Brian catches up with him at a crossroad. As Dom remembers the times that he had had with Brian, they smile and bid each other farewell and drive off in separate directions.

The Fate of the Furious

Dom is on his honeymoon with Letty in Havana, Cuba where his cousins car is being towed by a Cuban Resident, and Dom challenges him to a race to save the car. Dom races his cousins car against the resident and uses a trick done by Brian to win the race. Dom and Letty discuss their marriage and Dom initially believes Letty is pregnant. When Dom is out getting coffee, he is coerced to helping a mysterious woman whose car is broken down. This is revealed to be a ruse, as the woman is actually a cyberterrorist known as Cipher who is after Dom. She reveals that she has Elena held hostage and she coerces him into working for her.

Dom is called by Hobbs who needs his help repossessing a stolen EMP from a group of German Separatists. After recovering the EMP along with Tej, Roman and Ramsey, Dom uses his Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and crashes into Hobbs, stealing the EMP for Cipher and leaving Hobbs to be arrested. Dom delivers the EMP to Cipher and she later uses him to break into Mr. Nobody’s Base of Operations where they steal the God’s Eye Chip for her use. Cipher forces Dom to kiss her to make Letty vulnerable. Back on the plane, Dom asks if the kiss was necessary and then threatens Cipher that he will turn on her. Cipher takes him to Elena’s room where he learn that he has a son who is also held hostage, forcing him to continue working for Cipher.

Dom and Cipher next travel to New York where they intercept the Russian Minister of Defence’s motorcade and steal Nuclear Launch codes from him. When Dom is making his escape, he is boxed in by his team, along with Shaw, who attempt to stop him. Dom flees, and this leads to a chase between them in New York, resulting in their cars being destroyed. Dom tries to flee and appears to kill Deckard. Letty takes the nuclear codes from him and he chases her into an alleyway where he fires a gun into the air. Letty tells him that he loves her and won’t shoot her. When she tries to escape, Connor Rhodes threatens to kill her, but Dom holds a gun to his hand. Letty gives them the codes and Dom and Rhodes leave. Later, Cipher allows Rhodes to kill Elena in front of Dom for allowing Letty to almost flee with the codes.

Dom and Cipher travel to Russia where they intercept a Military Base and take control of a nuclear submarine. As Dom’s team attempt to override the attack, Dom watches from a vantage point and after Shaw, who is revealed to be alive through a plan arranged by Dom, rescues his son, he turns on Cipher and kills Rhodes, avenging Elena’s death. Dom then joins his team, and when Cipher sends a heat seeking missile after him, he uses it to blow up the tank and stop Cipher. Dom and his team return to New York where they share a barbecue together, and Dom calls his son Brian.

F9

Dom, Letty and Little Brian move to Thailand where they isolate themselves on farmland. One day while working on repairing a tractor, an unknown car arrives and Dom and Letty prepare to defend themselves before it is revealed that the occupants are Tej, Roman, and Ramsey who deliver news about an emergency SOS message sent to them by Mr. Nobody who had recently captured Cipher but his plane was attacked by rogue agents who extracted Cipher. They inform Dom and Letty that they plan on investigating the crash site in Montequinto as Mr. Nobody left something there for them to find, and that Mr. Nobody himself is missing. Letty agrees to join them but Dom refuses stating that they are not on call anymore and now that he is a father he has to focus on their son. That night, Letty tells Dom she’s going with or without him and rides off to join the others. Dom rewatches the SOS message and discovers that one of the rogue agents was his brother, Jakob. He then calls Mia who arrives the next morning to watch Little Brian, and the pair reminiss about their Dad before Dom races to the airport to join the rest of his team.

The team touchdown in Montequinto and investigate the wreckage of the plane, they find a half of a device called Project Aries and are then met by military personnel who are guarding the area. The team escape in their cars, with Dom driving a 2020 Dodge Charger Hellcat, and Dom makes the risky decision to drive through a minefield. After Letty is knocked off her bike, the device falls out of it and is caught by Jakob who has been keeping an eye on them from a vantage point. Letty gets into Dom’s car and they chase after him, however he is able to evade them by driving off a cliff and being caught by a plane with a magnet underneath. In order to avoid the military, Dom swings his car with the help of the remains from an old rope bridge and is able to cross the border of the guarded region, forcing the military to call off the attack. Dom delivers the news to an old associate, Michael Stasiak, and asks for his help with their latest plan.

Stasiak gives them the location of a bunker in the Caspian Sea that belonged to Mr. Nobody that they could use. After they gather, Mia arrives and is initially disappointed that Dom didn’t tell her and then reveals that their kids will all be fine with Brian as she joins them. They discover that Han is alive and so Dom instructs the team to split up with Mia and Letty going to Tokyo and Tej and Roman going to Germany.

Dom’s first stop is Los Angeles where he meets with Buddy for the first time in years to find information on Jakob’s location, as Buddy took in Jakob after Dom exiled him. Buddy reveals that Jakob is in London so he goes there next and meets with another former associate, Magdalene Shaw, they steal a supercar from outside a jewellery store on New Bond Street and she drops him off at Hatfield House where a party is being hosted by Jakob and his partner Otto. Magdalene warns him of the danger of going after Jakob before leaving him. Dom meets Otto who warns him of his family’s power, and he then goes into the house where he comes face to face with Jakob for the first time. Jakob gives Dom a chance to escape and then reveals that the party is a setup and by Dom entering the house he crossed into an embassy and was committing a crime. Dom is captured by Interpol Agents who are revealed to be a team led by Leysa, a former friend of Dom’s from the Dominican Republic, she gives Dom a gun with Jakob’s biometrics so he can track him and then lets him free.

Dom follows Jakob to Edinburgh where he follows as Jakob zip-lines from building-to-building after stealing the second half of Project Aries. Dom chases Jakob across the rooftops and tackles him into a building where they fight. The fight continues into the streets where Jakob evades Dom by jumping onto the roof of a bus but Dom catches up to him and knocks him to the ground. With the help of Ramsey, they apprehend Jakob and hold him hostage in their bunker. Dom calls Brian so that he can talk to his son just as Han returns with Letty and Mia and tells them his story of survival before the bunker is infiltrated by Otto’s men who free Jakob. After Dom tells Jakob he doesn’t deserve the Toretto name, Jakob gets angry and explains the truth behind their father’s death. He reveals that it was their father who asked him to tamper with the race car as part of a plan that went horribly wrong. Their father was going throw the race, as he was in serious debt and hoped to make it look like an accident to collect on insurance to give his children a better life. Jakob never told the truth because he promised their father he wouldn’t.

Otto and Jakob leave with Elle, a friend of Han’s he was protecting who could activate Project Aries, and Tej and Ramsey cause a diversion so that the team can escape before they are taken out by Otto’s team. As Dom is last, he locks the team outside of the bunker and fights Otto’s army so they can’t go after his family. Dom destroys the chain linked bridge into the bunker before Otto’s men can get Letty and he falls down the silo into the connecting sea lock. Dom flashes back to his past, remembering how desperate their father was before the race and realizes that Jakob was telling the truth. Dom then envisions his own son who asks when he’ll be coming home. Letty dives into the water and saves Dom from drowning.

Knowing that all bets are off now that Jakob and Otto have everything they need to activate Project Aries, Dom tells the team that they have to go full force to stop them, including going into space to destroy a satellite. Dom, in his 1968 Dodge Charger, Letty, Han, Mia and Ramsey fight Otto on the streets of Tbilisi and Han and Mia are able to free Elle whilst Dom saves Jakob from death after Otto and Cipher turn on him. Dom and Jakob work together to flip Otto’s 16-wheeler, named The Armadillo, and Dom and Ramsey board the truck to cancel the Project Aries uplink. Cipher flies in on a jet and attempts to kill Dom once more but he is able to once again use her rockets against her as he ricochets the Armadillo into her jet and destroying it, as well as killing Otto, however it is revealed that Cipher was flying the jet remotely and she slips away once more.

Jakob returns in Dom’s Charger to give it back but Dom tells him about how Brian once helped him get away by giving him the keys to his Toyota Supra and Dom offers this opportunity to Jakob, finally making amends with his brother. The team return to Los Angeles and Dom takes Little Brian to the racetrack to talk to him about his grandfather. The team gather at 1327, which is being rebuilt, and sit down to a barbecue together just as Brian O’Conner returns in his Nissan Skyline to join them.

Fast & Furious: Spy Racers

Dom meets up with his cousin Tony Toretto and his friends on a street in Los Angeles, after witnessing Tony lose a race against Mitch, a fellow street racer. Tony is upset that he lost to Mitch once again, and Dom tells Tony that as a Toretto, he is born to win, but that being a Toretto wasn’t about what he did in a car but with what was in his heart. Dom inquires whether Tony’s car could make it back home, to which Tony’s friend Cisco Renaldo, a mechanic, replies that while it would not win any races (its fuel pump is loose and is being held by a piece of chewing gum), it would be able to make the trip back home. As Dom walks away, telling Tony that there’s something he wants to tell him about at home, a van pulls up with masked men who subsequently kidnap Dom. Tony gets in his car and decides to give pursuit, with Echo and Cisco doing so as well; since Frostee Benson is only thirteen, he rides with Cisco, although he uses his technical expertise to have a drone follow the van at all times so that they can track Dom’s whereabouts.

Their attempts to follow the van are hindered when they are chased by a group of bikers, prompting them to all split up. Cisco’s vehicle is much too large and slow to outrun or outmaneuver the bikers, although Frostee recommends that they use that to their advantage and head somewhere the bikers cannot follow, prompting him to drive through a construction site. Echo zips through traffic and drifts underneath a truck while the bikers behind her collide and crash, and she gleefully notifies her friends that she is no longer being followed. Tony’s attempts to shake off his followers begin to go awry when his fuel pump becomes loose again. Knowing that he cannot drive at this speed much longer, he sees a group of low-riding cars going up and down and decides to speed through them as they go up; as the cars lower, it hits the bikers, leaving Tony free to follow the drone’s tracking signal.

The gang find themselves outside a warehouse, where the signal has led them. Cisco cautions Tony against rushing in, citing that they do not know what is in there, only for Tony to reply that Dom is in there and to kick in the door. The group find themselves facing none other than Dom and a woman who has been timing them, whom Dom refers to as «Ms. Nowhere». Dom explains that he wasn’t actually kidnapped, citing that a group of guys would not be able to do so and that it would take an army, and that the whole endeavor was a test; Ms. Nowhere, whose organization Dom has worked with in the past, needs a group of street racers to infiltrate SH1FT3R, a criminal organization who hosts street races to serve as cover for its massive heists, with its leader Shashi Dhar already haven stolen over three billion dollars from Silicon Valley’s richest men. Tony wonders why they need them when Dom is there, to which Dom laughingly responds that he cannot go undercover as he would recognized instantly, and that a group of new street racers are needed, hence why he recommended Tony and his friends. As Tony agrees, Dom tells him not to just follow orders but to follow his gut. As he leaves, he warns Ms. Nowhere that SH1FT3R would be the least of her worries if she does not keep Tony safe.^[10]

Sometime later, after Ms. Nowhere and Gary are confined in a cell at a military base, Dominic arrives to free them. Dominic reminds Nowhere that she had asked him to keep Tony safe and she retorts that trouble seemed to follow the Torettos wherever they went. Ms. Nowhere, Gary, and Dominic take the jet and fly above the Las Vegas Strip, where they notice a building demolishing. With no way to safely exit the collapsing building, Tony drives out of one of the windows in desperation; before he can plummet, however, he is snagged by a harpoon fired by Dominic and is towed into the plane.

Now safely onboard the plane, Tony is shocked to see Dominic there. As Nowhere and Gary approach them, Dominic states that he would always be there for his family, and Tony says that he had always wanted to be like Dom but never realized what that truly meant, to which Dom replies that Tony still stepped up and finished the job and that he is proud of him.^[11]

Personality

Dominic has been described as «a family guy»^[12] Dominic is a «caretaker»^[13], defined largely by his emotional ties. In contrast to Brian’s estranged relationship with his father, Dom puts family first. Dominic is very protective of Mia and extremely loyal to anyone he considers family. He will do anything he can for them, even traveling to a foreign country to retrieve their body for a proper burial.^[6] Dominic is a religious man on account of his upbringing, attending church as a child with his father and sister.^[8]

While not overtly religious, Dominic relies largely on the faith he places in people.^[4] He requires everyone at the table wait until the food is blessed before eating, or bless the table when they eat before the blessing takes place.^{[note 3][8][1][5]} He uses the cross he wears around his neck representation of his love for wife, Letty Ortiz, who has known since childhood.^[8][6] Dominic recalls his father’s influence on him and the things he did for Mia as as child as the reason he considers family as most important.

Dominic is impulsive and has little control over his temper. He tends to attack people whenever they insult him, or when he sees something he doesn’t like. Dominic doesn’t even bother asking for the full story and attacks the offender before an explanation, as seen when he attacked Kenny Linder following his father’s death^[8], and Brian, when he assumed Brian’s actions resulted in Letty’s death at the hands of Braga’s cartel.^[4] His lack of control has often resulted in grievous consequences for the one attacked.

During his time on the run in Rio and onward, after hearing about Mia’s pregnancy, Dominic develops a better impulse control, possibly wanting to set a good example for Mia’s unborn child.^[1] He doesn’t attack Owen Shaw following his meeting with Letty, something he would’ve normally done in the past. Instead he speaks with Owen, who is confident that Dominic’s moral code and familial ties makes him vulnerable to attack.^[5] Dominic holds himself a strong sense of pride. While not arrogant, he is self-assured in his abilities as a driver and fighter.

His moral code often restricts him from using dirty tactics when disadvantaged, but he is not above using them when cornered. In at least one instance, he attempted to fight Deckard Shaw in without weapons on assumption that that elder Shaw brother operated on a similar moral code. Dominic refused to kill Deckard the same way when he had the same opportunity and favored melee combat.

Dominic’s passion for racing was sustained by illegal street racing on account of being banned from the professional circuit. He considered little of his life in-between the quarter miles races and considered them his true freedom. Following the reformation of his crew in South American, his desires were refocused on his desire to uphold his family unit. His criminal activity was primarily motivated by the desire support his family financially. Following the theft of Reyes’s $100 million dollars, Dominic, Mia and Brian retire from to leave the life of theft.

Dominic is frequently mistaken by his opponents as ignorant or lacking intelligence. However, Dominic is mindful of his surroundings and often plans ahead when the situation calls for it. His desire to protect his family boarders on self-sacrifice. He was willing to risk his livelihood to steal back the military satellite CPU from Owen Shaw as Shaw’s plane began to crash. In extreme instances, Dominic often tries to sacrifice himself for the advance of his friends and family’s survival even it means he’ll die in the process.

While Dominic holds his friends and family above all else, he has said that there are rare occasions where he, at least for several seconds, feels free of his responsibilities, as he has also said «I live my life a quarter of a mile at a time.»

Abilities

• Peak Human Condition: According to the God’s Eye, Dominic is 6’1″ and weighs 215 pounds, with a muscular build. He has proven himself to wield immense strength and durability, as well as surprisingly fast and agile, being quite athletic due to his extensive life in street racing and his stint in prison.
  • Peak Human Strength: Dominic can generate nearly superhuman strength. He is able to easily overpower weaker opponents, even quite a few of those that included extensively trained fighters, surpassing the likes of Brian O’Conner, who he could easily toss aside and quickly break out of his grip and slam him to the ground with a simple motion, Owen Shaw, who he was able to knock back with his blows and even throw him to a concrete box with enough force to break it, and Deckard Shaw, who he easily uppercutted off his feet and several feet away nnd could pick up by the collar and slam him with enough force to cause him visible pain. His blows were able to punch through concrete and dent a car when he punched it instead of Shaw, which angered him to the point he was able to lift him up and throw him into a car windshield from a further distance. He could also lift Connor Rhodes by the throat and off the ground. His greatest feat of strength was stomping the ground weakened by Mose Jakande’s missiles, causing it to crumble beneath Shaw’s feet. The only ones to have ever surpassed Dominic’s strength are Luke Hobbs and Klaus but even those individuals have trouble fighting him, as Dominic was able to clash with Hobbs and cause him trouble breaking out of his grip while he was able to eventually do the same when Hobbs restrained him, although he only did it the second time when he was angered upon seeing Mia in danger, while he was able to knock off Klaus with a leaping blow and lift him long enough for Hobbs to knock him out. When interrogating a man, Dominic was able to keep a car engine suspended by a chain with one hand. In Abu Dhabi, Dominic also managed to lift the front of a Lykan HyperSport, which weighed 3,042 pounds (1,386 kilograms/1.52 tons).
  • Peak Human Durability: In addition to his strength, Dominic is extremely sturdy and durable by human standards. He has emerged from numerous car crashes unscathed, and he can take hits from others with vast strength, such as Luke Hobbs and Klaus. Dominic once took a bullet to the back of his shoulder, and he only exhibited anger and annoyance, instead of pain. He also survived an extremely high jump off a cliff into water with Brian.
  • Peak Human Speed: Dominic is quite fast despite his large frame. He can keep up with Hobbs and Shaw in combat (who can punch faster than 13 m/s and 19 m/s respectively). He ran fast enough to save Gisele from being run over by Fenix. He also saved Elena from gunfire, and saved Mia from their house exploding.
  • Peak Human Stamina: Dominic can push himself for long periods of time. He has demonstrated the ability to keep fighting after receiving severe injuries.

• Master Driver: Dominic is career racer and proficient driver, adept at driving various vehicles. Dominic is skilled in varying race and street sports, such as cornering and drifting, but prefers quarter mile races. Dominic is often reckless, using extreme measures to resolve equally extreme situations. In two different occasions, Dominic drove his Dodge Charger R/T off the cliff and smashed it in order to escape from Mose Jakande and his men, and twice he smashed directly in a head-on collision with Deckard Shaw.
• Expert Engineer: Dominic is highly adept at fixing and tuning cars, rivaled only by Tej Parker in experience. He built the Dodge Charger R/T with his father. He built and tuned several vehicles that he owned, including two 1970 Plymouth Road Runners and a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle from an audition race for Braga’s crew membership. He tweaked the engine of his cousin’s car by using the opener ring of a soda can to attach a hose to a part of the engine to act as a turbo. Dominic is also very knowledgeable in physics, which he applies while driving and performing impressive stunts, and he is a skilled welder, as he managed to place a tracking device in his necklace.

• Expert Combatant: Dominic is a very strong and skilled street fighter, as seen when he easily broke up a fight between Brian and Vince, and overpowered Johnny. Using proper technique in conjunction with his brute strength, he has been able to easily defeat Arturo Braga’s men, henchmen in a pawn shop, as well as fight against highly-trained opponents, including Brian O’Conner (a former cop and federal officer), Luke Hobbs (a former DSS agent), Owen Shaw (a former British SAS special operations soldier), Deckard Shaw (a British Special Forces assassin), and Connor Rhodes (an enforcer). Aside from firearms, he can also wield various blunt weapons, such as wrenches and pipes. He is very impulsive and aggressive in combat, but he can also keep a level head and draw strength from seeing his loved ones in danger in order to gain the upper hand.
• Expert Marksman: Unlike many of his opponents, Dominic rarely resorts to using firearms. When he does use firearms, his preference is often the shotgun. Even though Dominic prefers fists over firearms, he is adept at using them. He mainly prefers using shotguns, and once, he made a sawed-off shotgun. While he was under attack from Reyes’s men, he saved Hobbs’s life and killed several attacking men using a shotgun from Hobbs’s armored truck. He also used a shotgun to shoot out the tires of Braga’s men during the chase in Mexico.

• Expert Tactician: Dominic is rather intelligent and uses his opponent’s presumption to regard him as ignorant to his advantage. He perchance of elaborate heists, such as the 2004 truck hijackings, and the 2009 fuel thefts, saw him and his given teams incorporate high end and luxury vehicles into his plans. When collaborating with Brian in 2009, he devised a plan to hijack 100 million dollars in Rio from Hernan Reyes, a Brazilian drug lord, and also aided Luke Hobbs to capture Owen Shaw. After escaping capture in the U.S for hijacking cars, he was able to escape from the county. He managed to remain in hiding for five years from the U.S government, travelling across Central and South America, such as Mexico, Dominican Republic, Panama, Ecuador and Brasil. After stealing 100 million dollars from Hernan Reyes, he hid in the Canary Island in Spain mainly because there was no extradition clause. After he placed a tracking device in his necklace and left it on her plane for the Shaw brothers to find and rescue his son, the notorious Cipher described Dominic as «resourceful.»
• Multilingualism: Dominic speaks English, Portuguese,^[1] Italian,^[1] and Spanish.^[7]

Equipment

Weapons

• Smith & Wesson Model 19: Dom’s sidearm is a nickel snubnose revolver. He brought it to Johnny Tran’s garage and drew it when he took cover, but did not use it.

• Mossberg 590 Mariner: Dom’s most frequent weapon of choice is a shotgun. He took Vince’s shotgun before he confronted Brian O’Conner on his driveway, but disarmed himself of the weapon when Jesse arrived.

Dominic “Dom” Toretto is the brother of Mia Toretto, husband to Letty Ortiz, father of

Brian Marcos and the uncle of Jack. The protagonist in The Fast and the Furious franchise, Dominic is an elite street racer and auto mechanic. A man with a strong moral code and family values, Dominic began as a career criminal who robbed trucks to support his family. Banned from the professional circuit, Dominic relied on illegal quarter mile races to satisfy his passion for racing. When he meets Brian O’Conner, his family is torn apart by the revelation that Brian is an undercover cop. Dominic escapes the United States and reestablishes a new crew, running several jobs around Central and South America. He joins forces with Brian again after returning to Los Angeles to avenge the apparent death of his wife Letty Ortiz. He is sentenced to prison for twenty five to life before escaping the law and fleeing to South America once more. Dominic earned his freedom after he and his crew helped Diplomatic Security Service agent, Luke Hobbs, take down former British Special Forces soldier Owen Shaw, while rescuing an amnesiac Letty. He settles the score with the Shaw family after defeating Deckard Shaw, the man responsible for killing his friend, Han Seoul-Oh. He is later forced to betray his team due to Cipher threatening his son, but with the help of the Shaw brothers, he rescues his son and rejoins his team.

 

Early Life

Dominic Toretto was born August 29, 1976. His father was a professional stock car driver who earned a reputation on the track and his family owned and ran a market and cafe shop. As a child, Dominic befriended the likes of Vince during the third grade. At some point he also befriended Letty, a neighborhood local, around the time she was ten years old, based on their shared interest in cars. However, he never took a romantic interest in her until she was sixteen years old.

Dominic’s father

Dominic’s father was a proactive figure in his life. He helped Mia with her homework, reading ahead of chapters to help her the following day. The Toretto’s also attended church and held family barbecues for their neighbors. Dominic helped his father build what would become the 1970 Dodge Charger R/T, “900 horses of Detroit muscle”. His father used the Charger to participate in the Los Angeles County Raceway in nine seconds.

During the last stock car race of the season of an unknown year, Dominic watched as his father was run off the track by another racer, Kenny Linder, when Linder’s car clipped his bumper. Dominic’s father was killed instantly when his stock car crashed into the wall at 120 miles per hour and burst into flames. Dominic remembered hearing his father screaming, but the people who witnessed the accident explained that his father had died before his car exploded. Dominic had been the one screaming.

A week following the accident, Dominic encountered Linder and when given the opportunity, Dominic attacked Linder, beating him with a wrench. Dominic only intended to hit him once but lost control and kept attacking Linder it until he couldn’t lift his arm anymore. The result of Linder injuries rendered him unable to race, Dominic was banned for life from the tracks.

Criminal Activity

Dominic was sent to Lompoc Prison for assaulting Linder. In addition to keeping up his family’s business, Dominic also engaged in major crimes with his friends, such as stealing major appliances from transporting trucks using their cars. Dominic also participated in illegal street races for money and to sustain his passion for racing.

The Fast and The Furious

Since Dominic’s release from prison, he continued running his family’s market with Mia. In addition he established a local automotive shop, which doubled as a front for his illegal street racing ventures at night. Dominic and his friends remained tied to the criminal life. In order to make more money on the side to support their livelihoods, they committed a series of highway robberies. Using black Honda Civics, Dominic, Jesse, Vince, Leon and Letty attacked four trucks and stole $1.6 million worth of major electronics. The only identifiers the truck drivers could give the Los Angeles Police Department were the neon-green lights on the underbelly of the Coupes.

Brian O’Conner, a undercover LAPD officer under the alias “Brian Earl Spilner”, is he assigned to find out who is stealing the merchandise. Three weeks into his undercover assignment, he visits Toretto’s Market & Café to speak with Mia and order a tuna sandwich. Dominic, inside the market at the time, remains at the back of the store and listens in on their conversation. Following the arrival of his friends, Vince and Brian get into a fight about the number of times he’s visited the market.

Mia and Letty demanded that Dominic break up the fight. Reluctantly, Dominic leaves the market and intervenes in Vince’s fight with Brian. He questions the false name on Brian’s license and tells him to never visit their market again. When Brian protests, Dominic doubly fires him Harry’s store, The Racer’s Edge.

Later that night, Dominic and the others congregate at a local street race. Prior to the preparation of the race, Letty catches him flirting with two girls, Camille and Monica. When she doesn’t buy that he was merely speaking with them, he turns his attention to his friend Hector, who announces he accumulated over $2,000 worth of buy ins for the quarter mile race. With no money, Brian offers the pink slip to his 1995 Mitsubishi Eclipse.

If he loses, the winner of the race gets his car. Dominic and the other racers oblige his terms. During the quarter mile, Dominic, driving a 1993 Mazda RX-7 is able to beat everyone, winning the money and Brian’s car. Brian, who comes in dead last, proudly claimed that he almost had Dominic. Unimpressed, Dominic relays that Brian never had him and was guaranteed to lose his car.

Leon warns Dominic and the other racers of the police’s arrival. Dominic runs with the rest of them. Driving into a parking garage, Dominic hides his Mazda and continues his escape on foot. When he is caught by the police, he runs down an alley. Brian appears in time and gives him a ride. Brian evades the police with little incident. Dominic assures Brian that he’s gained his trust, but wasn’t keeping his car.

When he asks if Brian ever committed any felonies, Brian downplays his offenses. Using the information he was given by Jesse (who ascertained Brian’s falsified records online), Dominic brings up his history of grand theft auto. Brian shifts the conversation to Dominic and asks if he ever did time in prison. Dominic mentions his two year stint Lompoc, a place he would die to avoid.

Dominic and Brian are surrounded by Johnny Tran and his crew. Dominic, realizing too late that they’ve strayed into Tran’s territory, tries to explain that it was an unavoidable mistake made by his “new mechanic”, Brian. Tran questions the ownership of the Mitsubishi. Dominic deflects Brian’s immediate association to the Mitsubishi and tells him that he doesn’t own it on account not taking delivery. Tran declares the car belongs to no one and appears to leave. However, he doubles back and destroys the Mitsubishi. During the beginning of their hike back to the city, Dominic explains that bad blood between himself and Tran was the result of a business deal gone sour and sleeping with his sister.

They catch taxi back to the Toretto House. When Brian returns, Dominic decides to invite him. He uses Brian’s presence against his crew to remind them that none of them thought to look for him when they escaped the street race and returned to his house. Dominic creates more discord between Vince and Brian by offering Brian the Corona he takes from Vince. Dominic is forced to leave the first floor of the house to entertain Letty, who wanted a message. Before heading upstairs, Dominic reminds Brian that he owes him a ten second car.

The following day, Brian arrives to Dominic’s garage with a rusted 1994 Toyota Supra MK IV. While Dominic is unimpressed with the state of the car, Jesse is confident it can be restored. During the repairs of the Supra, Brian slowly gains Dominic’s trust. His cover is nearly blown by Vince, who correctly assumes that Brian is a cop when he and Dominic catch him leaving Hector’s garage. An uncertain Dominic chooses to believe that Brian was trying to figure out what Hector and Johnny Tran were going to use on their cars for the Race Wars event. Brian takes them to Tran’s garage, where they find several electronics similar to the ones stolen from the four truck robberies and cars without engines.

When Dominic learns that Brian has begun seeing his sister, Mia, Dominic warns Brian he’ll break his neck if he breaks her heart. Brian’s confidence that he wouldn’t hurt Mia lead to Dominic showing him his father’s 1970 Dodge Charger. Dominic explains the history of the car he built with his father and the regrettable actions that led to his attacking a stock car racer, Kenny Linder, who he believed was responsible for the stock car accident that killed his father.

With only thirty six hours to pin the truck thefts on Dominic, Brian becomes aggressive with his attempts to earn Dominic’s trust. Following a brief race with a Ferrari owner, Dominic and Brian have lunch at a grill. Brian comes forward with his assumptions, that Dominic was earning more money than the market and garage could get him and asked for an in on Dominic’s side business. Instead of giving him an in, Dominic gives Brian the directions to the Race Wars.

At the event, Dominic and his crew set up and prepare for the races. Jesse loses his Volkswagen Jetta to Johnny Tran in a race, he flees the scene with Johnny’s car. Angry, Tran accuses Dominic of selling him out to the police. Dominic attacks Tran, declaring that he would never sell anyone out to the police. When he is pulled away from Tran, Dominic and Vince appear to leave the event. Later that night, Dominic gets into a fight with Mia, who tries to stop him from committing the fifth truck theft with Letty, Vince and Leon.

He refuses to listen to her and leaves with the others. They meet at a lookout outside of Thermal where the Honda Civics was hidden. Letty, Vince and Leon express uncertainty about trying to attack another truck without Jesse. Dominic assures the crew that they would be taking a “long vacation” after the fourth truck score and tells Letty that he had a dream about their being in Mexico together.

On the road, Dominic and Vince position themselves in front of the truck. When Vince is able board the front of the truck, the driver fires on him with a shotgun. The crew’ plans fall apart when Vince is tangled into the harpoon wire and stuck on the side of the truck. Letty is driven off the road and Dominic’s Civic is damaged by shotgun fire.

Dominic is unable to reach Vince and is forced to stop. He is later picked up by Leon, who helped Letty after her car was run off the road. He helps Mia and Brian try to stabilize Vince, who was critically wounded. Brian exposes his identity was a cop in order to get Vince immediate help from a hospital. When Vince was airlifted out of the desert, Dominic and Mia join Leon and Letty and leave Brian behind.

Back at the house, Dominic prepares to search for Jesse when Brian arrives at the house in his Supra. He tries to get Dominic to surrender himself to the authorities. Dominic angrily refuses, explaining that he had to find Jesse before Tran did. When Brian offers to call in the plates on the Volkswagen when Jesse returns to Dominic’s house and apologies for his actions. Moments after he arrives, Tran and his cousin, Lance Nguyen arrives on their motorcycles and fire on the house. Jesse is killed in their drive by. Dominic follows after Brian, who pursued Tran and Lance immediately after their shooting. Dominic manages to catch up with them in time to force Lance off the road. When catches up with Brian, he has shot and killed Tran. He leaves immediately afterward and stops at an intersection.

Without saying it, Dominic tells Brian that he intends on escaping when he makes a run for the train tracks. Brian pursues Dom in quarter mile race. As a train approaches, Dominic’s car begins to malfunction. He and Brian are able to pass the tracks, narrowly missing the train as it barreled toward them. Dominic fails to pay attention to the road afterward and is side swiped by an unexpected truck and his car flips over. Dominic survives the roll the Dodge makes, but the car is too damaged to use. With the police on the approach, Brian gives Dominic the keys to his Supra, stating that he still owed him a ten-second car. Dominic takes the keys and escapes.

Baja, Mexico

Following Dominic’s escape from Los Angeles, he relocates to Baja, Mexico. During Dominic’s time in Mexico, he meets Han Seoul-Oh. The two establish a relationship and begin traveling. When the two relocate to the Dominican Republic, they meet a man named Armando and form a friendship. Han would later become a member of Dominic’s crew.^[4]

2 Fast 2 Furious

Dominic is mentioned several times by Agent Bilkins and U.S Customs Agent, Markham. Roman Pearce, Brian’s childhood friend, often questioned the history he had with Dominic, considering it led to his then present life as an ex-LAPD officer on the run. Brian confesses to Roman that he let Dominic go because he felt responsible for not being to help him when Roman was arrested and imprisoned for three years for harboring stolen cars.

Los Bandoleros

Dominic has since left Mexico and relocated to the Dominican Republic. He has befriended the likes of fellow locals, Tego Leo and Rico Santos, Cara Mirtha, and Malo. He appeared to live at Santos’ residence with this family. At some point Leo was arrested. Upon Han’s arrival in the Dominic Republic, Dominic and Santos are preparing to break Leo out of prison. They enjoy a brief dinner with Santos’ family before heading out.

When Leo is freed, they head to a local club to meet with wealthy local, Elvis. Elvis informs them of a window of opportunity to hijack a gas shipment on a tanker. Dominic makes a deal with the man to be ready to steal the gas and give it to the people, so long as he honors his word. While relaxing at the club afterwards, Dominic is reunited with Letty Ortiz, who tracked him from Mexico. The two drive together to the beach, where they rekindle their relationship.

Marriage Vows

During their time in the Dominican Republic, Dominic and Letty decide to get married. The two head to a church on their own and use the cross They often wore as their wedding wing. Letty and Dominic swear each other their lives, sealing their marriage vows with a kiss.

Fast & Furious

Dominic and his new crew planned a score where they would steal fuel from a tanker in the Dominican Republic. Despite minor complications, they are able to make off with the gas. At a party, celebrating their theft, the crew decides to go their separate ways with their share of the money made off the score. Han informs Dominic that the police shut down their garage in Baracoa. Dominic, knowing that it would only be a matter of time that he would be caught, Dominic and Han bid each other farewell.

When Dominic tries to break away from Letty, she reminds him of their vow to “ride or die” together. However, despite their conversation, Dominic decides to go off on his own, leaving his share of the money and the cross to Letty.

In Panama, Dominic gets a call from his sister, Mia, who tells him that Letty has been murdered in a fatal car accident. Dominic returns to Los Angeles and reunites with Mia, who takes him the scene of Letty’s murder.

Dominic finds traces of nitromethane at the scene. He visits the only car mechanic that uses nitromethane and “coerces” him into giving him the name David Park, the man who ordered the fuel. Meanwhile, the now FBI agent Brian O’Conner is trying to track down a drug dealer named Arturo Braga, and the search leads him to Park as well. Dominic arrives at Park’s apartment first and hangs him out of the window by his ankles before letting go. Brian, who was also on his way to Park’s place, saves Park.

Dominic and Brian later meet at street race in Los Angeles and compete to become Arturo Braga’s new drivers. The winner will become the last driver on a team that traffics heroin between the United States-Mexico borders. Dominic wins the race after causes Brian to lose control of his 2002 Nissan Skyline GT-R R34. However, Brian is able to become one of Braga’s drivers after he arrests another driver and takes his place on the team.

The following day, at a party, Dom and Brian talk to Campos, one of Braga’s men, while teasing each other on how their past ventures and profiles could get in the way of their job. Afterwards, Dominic examines the garage under the club, and is approached by Gisele Yashar, a woman working for Braga, who develops feelings for Dominic, who does not reciprocate.

Dominic and Brian later meet Fenix Calderon, another one of Braga’s men. Dominic learns that Fenix is responsible for Letty’s murder. They drive across the border using underground tunnels to avoid detection. Brian had prior knowledge that after the heroin was delivered, Braga ordered the drivers to be killed. After a tense stand-off, Dominic detonates his car with nitrous to distract Braga’s men and Brian hijacks a Hummer with US$60 million worth of heroin, taking a gunshot-wounded Dominic with him.

Both Dominic and Brian drive back to Los Angeles and hide the heroin in a police impound lot where Dom “gives” a modified 2009 Subaru Impreza WRX STi GH to Brian to pay for his car. They reunite with Mia at Brian’s house, where they have dinner and Brian tells his superiors that in exchange for Dominic’s pardon, he would lure Braga into a trap. The trap would force him to show up to exchange money for the heroin. At the drop site, however, the man who claims to be Braga is a decoy and Campos, the real Braga, escapes and flees to Mexico, almost running over Gisele. Dominic saves Gisele from being hit by Braga.

Afterward, Gisele decides to help Dominic and Brian catch Braga. Brian and Dominic travel to Mexico on their own to catch Braga. Gisele thanks Dominic by giving the location of Braga’s hideout. They find him at a church and apprehend him. As Braga’s men, led by Fenix, pursue Dominic and Brian across Mexico. Dominic and Brian drive through the underground tunnels back to the United States. When some of Braga’s men are killed, Brian crashes his car and is injured after being T-boned by Fenix at the end of the tunnel.

Dominic survived the explosion inside the tunnel, exchanged his 1970 Dodge Charger with a 1973 Chevrolet Camaro F-Bomb. Emerging from the tunnel, he approaches Fenix and Brian at high speed. Brian grabbed Fenix by the ankles and prevents him from escaping. Dominic rams Fenix with the Camaro and kills him, pinning him against the wreck of another car. The police begin to arrive on the scene.

Brian tries to get Dominic to escape before they can catch him. Dominic refuses to leave Brian’s side, saying he’s tired of running. Following Dominic’s arrest he is brought to court. Despite Brian’s request for clemency, the judge sentences Dominic to twenty five years to life in Lompoc with no possibility of parole.

Dominic is herded onto the prison transport to Lompoc. During his transit, he is pursued by Mia, Leo, Santos and Brian, who intend on breaking him out. Dominic catches sight of their cars as they prepare to crash the bus.

Fast Five

Brian, Mia, Leo and Rico crash the prison bus that was taking Dominic back to Lompoc. Following their escape, the three become wanted felons. Dominic separates himself from Brian and Mia and travels to Ecuador. During his time in the country, he reestablishes contact with Vince, who is living in Rio de Janeiro. Dominic presumably agrees to Vince’s plan to steal several cars from a train traveling outside of the city. His arrival to Rio is delayed.

When he arrives at the train with Vince, they are accompanied by a man named Zizi and one other accomplice. Dominic grows suspicious of Zizi’s intentions when the man announces he is taking the Ford GT40. He tells Mia to take the GT40, despite the disagreement voiced by Zizi and his man. Dominic supersedes Zizi’s orders to meet at the “same place” where Vince went and told Mia to wait for his call.

When Mia veers off Zizi’s planned course, he tries to shoot her. Brian and Dominic fight Zizi and his men off long enough to escape 1963 Chevrolet Sting Ray Grand Sport. They drive the vehicle over the cliff and free fall into the water below the train’s bridge. When they surface, they are taken hostage by Zizi and his men.

Inside of a warehouse, Dominic and Brian meet Hernan Reyes, the man who arranged for the theft of the cars; he asks them to give up the location of the GT40 in exchange for their freedom. When they fail to cooperate, Reyes promises to hurt Mia when his men find her and the GT40. When Reyes and Zizi escape, Dominic and Brian overpower their captors and escape.

When regroup with Mia at their “safe house” and learn that they’ve been framed for the murder of the DEA agents that were aboard the train. When Vince arrives at their safe house, Brian immediately accuses him of setting them up. Dominic breaks up the fight, choosing to believe Vince is telling them the truth.

Later that night Dominic observes Vince and watches him take the computer chip that was hidden within the GT40. Feeling his trust was betrayed, Dominic refuses to listen to Vince, who tried to explain that Reyes merely wanted the chip, and exiled his friend. Before he leaves, Vince reminds Dominic that his refusal to listen to him before back in Los Angeles led to the destruction of life and family, Letty’s death included.

The following day, their safe house is ambushed by Zizi and his men. Dominic, Mia and Brian are forced run. Dominic separates himself from Brian and Mia, leading Zizi and most of his men away from them. Running through the favelas, Dominic is pursued by DSS Agent, Luke Hobbs. During his escape, he encounters police local, Elena Neves, who holds him at gunpoint before he saves her from Reyes’ men.

Dominic escapes before Hobbs’s team can catch him, but loses his cross necklace. When they reunite, Dominic tells Brian and Mia to go to the south while he takes care of Reyes’ men. Brian agrees with Dominic’s plan until Mia announces her pregnancy. Elated, Dominic remains with his sister and Brian. Switching gears, the three of them decide to organize a crew to steal the $100 million dollars’ worth of laundered money from Reyes.

Dominic calls in Han, Santos and Giselle, who join Roman Pearce and Tej Parker as the crew to take down Reyes. Dominic and the others ambush one of Reyes’ laundering houses and burn the money, threatening to do the same thing to all other houses. As Dominic predicted, Reyes secures the rest of his money into a single place in a local police department. Dominic and Han call in a favor from his friend, Armando, who manages to deliver an identical bank vault to the one Reyes was using to keep his money safe.

Dominic makes plans to secure cars for their heist. However, because Dominic and Han were caught on CCTV cameras in the city, the entire crew is identified by Luke Hobbs’ team. At a local street race, Dominic and the others are cornered by Hobbs who intends to arrest all of them. However, Dominic uses the local’s resentment of authority to his advantage with several armed men, who refuse to allow Hobbs to arrest them.

Hobbs and his team retreat. Dominic and the others use the tracking device Tej placed on Hobbs’ vehicle to maintain vigilance on whereabouts. Dominic, realizing that Elena still had his cross, breaks into to Elena’s house to recover his cross. He waited until Elena entered her house and disarmed herself. He attacks her, slamming her up against the wall. He waits until he’s sure she won’t scream.

When he removes his hand takes the cross from around her neck. Elena demand to know why he would risk exposing himself to her for “$20 worth of silver”. Dominic merely tells her the cross was worth it. Before he leaves, Elena inquires if Letty was special. Dominic answers in the affirmative, knowing that she understood his loss.

The following night, Dominic, Brian, Roman and Han head for police department parking lot and steal four police cruisers for the heist. They decide to have a quarter mile race for a million dollars. Dominic purposely forfeits the race at the last second to let Brian win as a present for his nephew.

When Vince saves Mia from Reyes’ men at a street market, he earns Dominic’s trust back. During dinner, Brian and Mia officially announce the pregnancy to the crew. Dominic proposes a toast to important thing in their lives: Family.

When they locate Hobbs’s hummer, Dominic and the others set their plans in motion. However, Hobbs’ team raids the safe house. Hobbs destroys Dominic’s charger and reveals that he planted a tracking device on one of their cars. Dominic engages Hobbs in a fight. The two are locked in a struggle for a time until Dominic overpowers Hobbs and almost hits him with a wrench. Mia demands that Dominic stop fighting and he misses Hobbs’ face by an inch. Following their fight, Dominic and the others are arrested. While transporting them to an airport for extradition to the United States, the convoy is attacked by Reyes’ men.

Dominic and the others are released by Elena and aid Hobbs in fighting back against Zizi and their men. They kill every man except Zizi and escape. On the way back to their safe house, Dominic learns that Vince was fatally wounded. Before he dies, Vince tells Dominic that he named his son, Nico, after him. Dominic, fueled by revenge and regret, aligns himself with Hobbs, who wants revenge for his teammates who were murdered by Reyes’ men.

The heist begins the following day. Hobbs and Elena smash the hummer through the police station, allowing Dominic and Brian access to the vault. Using the wire tethers, they attach the vault to their cars and pull it out of the station. Dominic and Brian led the police through the city, destroying buildings and cars with the vault dragging behind them. When the two meet the others under the bridge, they switch vaults.

Han, Gisele and Leo take the vault with the money and hide it using a dump truck. Dominic and Brian resume their chase and leads the police to the bridge outside of the city. On the bridge, Dominic attempts to sacrifice himself, and tells Brian to escape with Mia. Despite his sister’s protests, he releases Brian’s car off the vault, and turns back.

He accelerates and uses the vault to take out the remaining police cars. Dominic abandons his car, letting the vault crash into Reyes’ car. Dominic is almost shot by Zizi. However, Brian shows up and kills Zizi. Hobbs and Elena arrive soon after and Hobbs shoots Reyes in the heart.

Hobbs refuses to let Dom go free. However, unwilling to arrest him, agrees to give Dominic and the others a 24-hour head start, but without the money. Dominic and Brian leave before Hobbs discovers the empty vault, and returns to the safe house. After taking their share of Reyes’s $100 million, the group part ways to start new lives outside of the United States. Dominic leaves Vince’s share of the money with his wife Rosa and his son Nico, along with a letter saying “See you soon – Uncle Dom”.

Some time later, Dominic and his sister have relocated to the Canary Islands in Spain. Brian and a pregnant Mia relax on a beach where they are met by Dominic and Elena, who began a relationship. Dominic watches his sister speak with Elena, relieved to see her happy. Brian challenges Dominic to a final, no-stakes race to prove who the better driver is.

Fast & Furious 6

Dominic and Brian race to the local church where Mia is giving birth to her son, Jack. Before Brian enters the church, Dominic tells him that nothing else except Mia’s child is important and their old lives would be left behind. Some time later, Hobbs appears at Dominic’s house and tries to recruit him in his effort to catch an ex-British Special Forces soldier named Owen Shaw. A skeptical Dom demanded to know what he would gain from helping Hobbs. Hobbs reveals the information on Letty provided him by Monica Fuentes. Elena encourages Dominic to help Hobbs, explaining that she would do the same if it were her husband.

Dominic agrees to help, but without his team. Hobbs rejects Dominic’s terms, explaining that Shaw’s team was too dangerous and the entire group was required to taken him down. Reluctantly, Dominic contacts Roman, Tej, Han and Gisele. Afterwards, Dominic visits Brian, Mia and Jack. He gifts his nephew with a replica 1970 Dodge Charger toy, assured that he would take more after the Toretto family’s taste in cars than Brian and his love for imports.

Later, Dominic reveals to Brian Hobbs’s information on Letty, who is running with Owen Shaw’s team in London, England. Brian believed Hobbs was trying to manipulate Dominic into helping him, confident that Letty was dead despite the lack of a body. Dominic, however, needed to know for certain that his wife was dead. Mia asks them both to bring Letty home to reunite the family.

In London, Dominic and the others reunite at a headquarters. Hobbs explains the situation with Shaw, who was attempting to construct a device known as “Nightshade”, capable of disabling an entire country’s power for 24 hours, and sell it for billions. Dominic and the others agree to help Hobbs on the stipulation that they are all given full pardons, their criminal records erased. Hobbs obliges the terms. Dominic follows Hobbs and Riley Hicks, to Shaw’s hideout while Brian and the other head for Interpol to prevent the theft of a databank containing information on the locations of the missing components of the Nightshade.

Shaw escapes the police in his Flip Car, while destroying the garage. Dominic and Hobbs pursue Shaw through the city and meet up with the rest of the team, who are pursuing the rest of Shaw’s team. Traveling through a tunnel, Dominic and Hobbs go after Shaw. During the pursuit, Dominic is led away from Shaw by Letty, who Dominic immediately recognizes. Dominic pursues Letty until he manages to force her car to stop by bumping its rear. When Dominic steps out of his car he is shot in the shoulder by Letty, who flees immediately after.

The following day, Brian tracks the origin of Letty’s PSM pistol. Dominic and Brian visit the pawn shop where she and Dominic interrogated the owner. Dominic learns that Letty attended local street races in the city. When the team returns to the safe house, Gisele informs them that Shaw is working with Braga. Dominic agrees with Brian’s plan to visit Braga in prison as a prisoner in order to interrogate him.

After having Han ask around, Dominic heads for the street race Letty was attending. The two exchange words, Letty was impressed that Dominic would show his face after she shot him. Before the race begins proper, Dominic uses her words, “ride or die”, in the hopes of triggering her memories. Near the end of their race, Letty signals Dominic to pull over. After they stop, the two talk. Dominic reveals little bits of information about Letty’s past with him when she refuses to believe that he knows her.

He uses the scars she earned before and after she “died” as a talking point. Dominic mentions the night she saved him after they first raced each other, the time she crashed her Ford Torino Cobra when she was in Boyle Heights with his sister, Mia. He mentions the scar below her pants line was earned when they were in the Dominican Republic together.

Before Letty leaves, Dominic gives her the cross necklace. Soon after, Shaw arrives in an Aston Martin DB9 to confront Dominic about Letty. Shaw threatens to use Letty against him, knowing that his loyalty to Letty and his code makes him vulnerable. Dominic is targeted by Adolfson with a sniper-rifle, after Dominic refuses to cease in his effort to bring Shaw to justice. Shaw is forced to back down when Hobbs reveals himself and targets him with his own sniper rifle. When Shaw departs, Hobbs tells Dominic that he planted a tracking device on Dominic. Dominic, aware of the fact, returns the tracking device to Hobbs.

Shaw’s next operation involved getting hold of a powerful Computer Processing Unit, which meant having to steal a tank from a military base in Spain. Dominic and the others follow after Shaw, who hijacked a tank in a military convoy. Following the destruction of Roman’s 1969 Ford Mustang Fastback, Dominic tells Brian to use the crushed vehicle as an anchor to stop Shaw’s tank. Brian in the Ford Escort MK I, follows Dominic’s order and uses Roman’s car, tied to the nose of the tank by Roman, as an anchor and stop the tank.

Letty is ordered by Shaw to remove the wire from around the nose of the tank. Dominic, realizing that Letty was in danger, crashes his 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona into the wall of the opposite side of the highway and launches himself across the gap when Letty is thrown off the top of the tank. Dominic catches Letty and they land on top of a car on the other side of the highway bridge.

Following the failure of Owen’s tank operation, Shaw is apprehended along with the members of the team that were with him. However, Shaw revealed to Dominic and the others that his team had kidnapped Mia. They use her as a bargaining chip, forcing Dominic and Hobbs to allow Owen and his team to leave with the billion-pound CPU. Riley reveals herself as a double agent working with Owen Shaw and leaves with Shaw’s team. Letty, remains with Dominic and his team.

The team race to catch Shaw on an airstrip. Shaw gets aboard an aircraft. Letty, Dominic, Brian and Hobbs board on the airplane to save Mia, while the others attempt to stop the air plane from taking off. Dominic fights Klaus and Shaw with Hobbs. When Klaus is defeated and Mia secured, Hobbs, Letty, Brian and Mia escape the plane using the cars in the cargo plane. Dominic continues to fight. When Shaw tries to escape in his Humvee, Dominic pursues him. Dominic is able to grab the Nightshade device and jumps out of the Humvee. Shaw is launched from the car and falls off the airplane to an apparent death.

The plane crashes and explodes. Dominic uses one of the Dodge Chargers to escape the plane before he is killed. The Charger flips when it loses traction on the air strip and rolls, crashing nearby the burning wreckage. While the crew fears the worst has happened to Dominic, he emerges from the wreckage, relatively unharmed. Following the incident in London, Dominic and the others return to Los Angeles to the Toretto House.

During their family barbecue, Elena and Hobbs visit the Toretto House with news that their criminal records were wiped clean. Elena and Dominic talk. Elena, acknowledging that their relationship is over, tells him that she is fine that he chose Letty over her. The team enjoys their freedom back in Los Angeles.

The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift

Dominic travels to Tokyo to bring the remains of Han back to the United States after he’s killed by Deckard Shaw, Owen Shaw’s older brother. Beforehand, he asks Twinkie to speak with Sean Boswell, the Drift King of Tokyo following the defeat of Takashi. Prior to the race, Dominic reveals to Sean that he won his a 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner from Han in a race. He then proceeds to race Sean who drives his Nissan Silvia S15.

Furious 7

At the beginning of Furious 7, Dom is first seen driving a 1970 Plymouth Barracuda with Letty through the desert trying to help her regain her memories. It is revealed that he is driving to Race Wars (the event from the first film). After seeing Letty win a race, he tries to congratulate her but she has a memory attack, punches Hector, one of the first film’s characters, and then drives off. After that Dom reunites with Hector. Dom later finds Letty in a graveyard where she was presumably buried. He tries to destroy the grave with a sledgehammer but Letty stops him, saying it’s the truth and she has to find herself. After that, she kisses Dom goodbye and leaves him.

Dom later visits Mia, Brian, and his nephew Jack at the old Toretto home, with a package from Tokyo out on the front porch. As Brian puts Jack in his minivan, Mia explains to Dom that he is struggling with his life and she is pregnant again, with a little girl. Dom tells Mia that she is the best thing that has ever happened to Brian. As Mia walks down the front walkway, he gets a call from Deckard Shaw, older brother of Owen Shaw saying, “Dominic Toretto, you don’t know me. You’re about to.” As he hangs up, he realizes the package is actually a bomb. Yelling “get down!”, he grabs Mia and holds her down as the bomb explodes, destroying the Toretto home. As Mia gets up running towards Brian and Jack, Dom looks at the burnt remains of the demolished Toretto home.

Dom later learns Luke Hobbs was put in the Hospital (caused by Shaw after setting off a bomb at his headquarters after engaging in a brutal fight with him) and visits him. After briefly meeting his daughter, Samantha Hobbs, Dom learns from Hobbs that Shaw is a lethal British special forces assassin seeking to avenge his brother. After finding out that Shaw is the one that killed his friend Han in Tokyo and sent the bomb that destroyed his home, Hobbs asks him one favor when he finds Shaw; “don’t miss”.

As Dom leaves the Hospital, he calls his sister, who is in the Dominican Republic for safety held by Dom’s friend, Armando and tells her it looks like the sins of London have followed them home. He then tells her to tell Brian he’ll see him in LA in two days because he is going to Tokyo to bring Han’s body home. As he arrives in Tokyo, he meets and races Sean Boswell, the new drift king. After the race (it is revealed that Dom won), Sean gives Dom a couple things he found in Han’s car after the crash. He gives him a picture of Gisele Yashar, and Dom’s cross necklace. After that Sean asks when he finds Shaw, what will he do. Dom responds by saying, “Words haven’t been invented yet.”

At Han’s funeral, Dom puts the picture of Gisele right next to the picture of Han on top of his grave. After that, Dom sees a car nearby spying on him, Brian, Tej, and Roman. Learning it is Shaw, he gets in his Plymouth Road Runner and chases the car out of the graveyard and throughout the streets of LA. As Shaw lures him into an underground tunnel with his Maserati Ghibli, The two play a game of chicken and both damage their cars as they charge toward each other. As they both get out of their vehicles face-to-face for the first time, Shaw tells him that their from different worlds and that he has seen a lot meaner streets than the ones Dom is used to. After that Dom pulls out his sledgehammer he had earlier and tells him it is gonna get a lot meaner. Although Shaw pulls a gun on him and says, “You thought this was gonna be a street fight.” But before Shaw can shoot Dom, a team of covert ops soldiers appear and shoot at Shaw, forcing him to flee. As the soldiers force Dom on the ground, Dom attacks one of them and strangles him. When the soldiers demand Dom to let him go, their leader, an unknown agent referred to as “Mr. Nobody“, tells them to back off since they are on the same team. Mr. Nobody informs Dom that he can help get Shaw.

Dom is brought with him to a convert ops command center and is told by Mr. Nobody that they can help each other get what they both need. Mr. Nobody later informs him that a hacker known only as Ramsey has been captured by a wanted terrorist named Mose Jakande because he is pursuing something Ramsey helped develop called God’s Eye, which is a surveillance system that can spot anybody from anywhere in the world. Using this, Dom can locate Shaw and take him down. As Dom accepts this offer, he is joined by Brian, Tej, Roman, and later Letty, who came back. After discussing how to get to their location, the guys come up with a plan to infiltrate the bus that is carrying Ramsey, while Dom asks Tej to help him put armor on one car.

The plan involves the five dropping from a jet in their cars and carefully land close to their target. Roman gets cold feet, prompting Tej to pull the chute out on him and sucking him out of the plane. The other four land close to the bus and break in. As the four cars ride through the Caucasus Mountains in Azerbaijan, they find the convoy but are spotted by Jakande’s men, who then shoot at the team. Brian hops on the bus and fights off the guards. He finds Ramsey in her cell and has her jump off the bus and onto the hood of Dom’s car for safety. As Dom is able to get Ramsey in his car, he is attacked by a fast attack vehicle and the driver is revealed to be Shaw, who followed them and leads them both through the woods and right next to a steep cliff. As Shaw attempts to knock Dom’s car off the cliff, Roman appears and knocks Shaw off the road. However, Jakande himself and his team find Dom. Before they can get him, he drives his car off a cliff, yet he and Ramsey miraculously survive.

Later, Dom and the team revive Ramsey, who tells them that she gave God’s Eye to a friend of hers in Abu Dhabi. They all travel there and meet this person, Safar, who says he sold God’s Eye to a prince. The team goes undercover to a party that the prince is throwing. Dom and Brian find that God’s Eye is in a car. Letty ends up fighting three guards and the prince’s head bodyguard Kara. Kara alerts the guards that there are intruders, keeping Tej and Ramsey out of their systems. Dom and Brian drive the car out of there before the gates shut the place down. Shaw comes out and tries to shoot at Dom, until he drives out of the building and through the next one. Dom discovers that the breaks are out, forcing him and Brian to jump to the next building. The two jump out of the car and pull God’s Eye out before the car slides out and crashes to the ground below.

With God’s Eye and the arrival of Mr. Nobody, Ramsey is able to track Shaw, who drove a Lamborghini Aventador outside Abu Dhabi to an abandoned factory. Dominic, Brian, Mr. Nobody, his right-hand man Sheppard, and the rest of his team track Shaw down and attempt to capture him. But it is revealed that Shaw is not alone. They are ambushed by Jakande and his militants, who Shaw joined forces with. During the gunfight, Sheppard is killed by Jakande, Mr. Nobody is shot and wounded by Jakande’s right-hand man, Kiet. Dom carries him out of there with Brian, and Jakande gets his hands on God’s Eye, which Brian and Dom are forced to leave. After they leave the factory, Mr. Nobody calls for medical assistance, and tells Dom that he will be leaving him from there, but not before telling hims to take down Shaw and protect Ramsey from Jakande since they will be coming for her because they know she can lock them out of God’s Eye.

After leaving Mr. Nobody in the desert to be evacuated by a helicopter, the team decides to return to their hometown, Los Angeles to fight Shaw and Jakande as they are left with no other choice. Upon arriving in LA, Brian and the rest of the team decide to deal with Jakande, while Dom will deal with Shaw. Letty tells Dom that it feels like she’s not going to see him again. Dom then puts his necklace on her, promising he will return for it. Dom later goes to the garage right by his destroyed home. Inside, he uncovers his old 1970s Dodge Charger and prepares for later that night.

While the others are dealing with Jakande, Dom finds Shaw in the streets driving an Aston Martin, and lures him to a parking lot where they have their final showdown. They attempt to play another game of chicken, but as they charge toward each other, Dom is able to lift the front of his car up at full speed and it crushes the front part of Shaw’s car. After backing out, Shaw gets out of his crushed vehicle, drops his firearm and pulls out an unknown metal stick from his car, but Dom pulls a shotgun on him saying, “You thought this was gonna be a street fight?” referring to what Shaw said earlier. As Shaw grins, Dom shoots his shotgun away from him, throws it back into his car and pulls out a pipe and a wrench, saying, “You’re goddamn right it is.” As Shaw rips off another unknown metal stick from his vehicle, the two engage in an epic one-on-one brawl all over the roof of the parking garage.

During the fight, Shaw manages to gain the upper hand, but after he kicks Dom toward his car, he sees a pack of grenades in Shaw’s car and as Shaw strikes him again, Dom starts to throw him around. Shaw hits Dom with one of his sticks after Dom body slammed him, before Jakande intervenes and attacks them both thinking Shaw is no longer useful to him, and Shaw is defeated when part of the parking garage collapses beneath him, which Dom stomps.

As Jakande prepares to kill Dom, Hobbs, who broke out of the hospital, attacks Jakande’s helicopter with a mini-gun. With the distraction from Hobbs, Dom grabs the grenades from Shaw’s crushed vehicle and drives away through the parking garage, but Jakande’s pilot fires missiles at him, destroying the parking garage. As Dom sees a ramp ahead of him, he then launches his vehicle at Jakande’s helicopter, tossing Shaw’s bag of grenades onto its skids, before injuring himself when his car lands and crashes. Hobbs then shoots the bag of grenades from ground level, destroying the helicopter and killing Jakande. When Dom remains unconscious, the team fears that he is dead. As Letty cradles Dom’s body in her arms, she reveals that she has regained her memories, and that she remembers their wedding. Dom regains consciousness soon after, remarking, “It’s about time”.

After Shaw is locked up in a CIA black site prison by Hobbs, Dom and his team are later seen on a beach with Mia and Jack. As He, Letty, Roman, Tej, and Ramsey watch Brian play with his family, they acknowledge that Brian is better off retired with his family. They realize this is where he belongs, and they look at them lovingly. Dom gets up to leave. Ramsey asks if he’s gonna say goodbye. Dom says, “It’s never goodbye.” He drives away, but Brian catches up with him at a crossroad. As Dom remembers the times that he had had with Brian, they smile and bid each other farewell and drive off in separate directions.

The Fate of the Furious

In this film, he is coerced by criminal mastermind Cipher into betraying his family until she threatens to have his child and Elena (who happens to be the mother) killed; enabling him to reconcile with the team upon foiling her terroristic scheme and then settle in with his son peacefully.

Characteristics

Personality

Dominic has been described as “a gruff but affectionate father to his loyal pack of renegades, providing them with barbecue, protection, and a rough moral code to live by.” Dominic is a “caretaker”, defined largely by his emotional ties. In contrast to Brian’s estranged relationship with his father, Dom puts family first. Dominic is very protective of Mia and extremely loyal to anyone he considers family. He will do anything he can for them, even traveling to a foreign country to retrieve their body for a proper burial.Dominic is a religious man on account of his upbringing, attending church as a child with his father and sister.

While not overtly religious, Dominic relies largely on the faith he places in people. He requires everyone at the table wait until the food is blessed before eating, or bless the table when they eat before the blessing takes place.He uses the cross he wears around his neck representation of his love for wife, Letty Ortiz, who has known since childhood. Dominic recalls his father’s influence on him and the things he did for Mia as as child as the reason he considers family as most important.

Dominic is impulsive and has little control over his temper. He tends to attack people whenever they insult him, or when he sees something he doesn’t like. Dominic doesn’t even bother asking for the full story and attacks the offender before an explanation, as seen when he attacked Kenny Linder following his father’s death, and Brian, when he assumed Brian’s actions resulted in Letty’s death at the hands of Braga’s cartel. His lack of control has often resulted in grievous consequences for the one attacked.

During his time on the run in Rio and onward, after hearing about Mia’s pregnancy, Dominic develops a better impulse control, possibly wanting to set a good example for Mia’s unborn child. He doesn’t attack Owen Shaw following his meeting with Letty, something he would’ve normally done in the past. Instead he speaks with Owen, who is confident that Dominic’s moral code and familial ties makes him vulnerable to attack.Dominic holds himself a strong sense of pride. While not arrogant, he is self-assured in his abilities as a driver and fighter.

His moral code often restricts him from using dirty tactics when disadvantaged, but he is not above using them when cornered. In at least one instance, he attempted to fight Deckard Shaw in without weapons on assumption that that elder Shaw brother operated on a similar moral code. Dominic refused to kill Deckard the same way when he had the same opportunity and favored melee combat.

Dominic’s passion for racing was sustained by illegal street racing on account of being banned from the professional circuit. He considered little of his life in-between the quarter miles races and considered them his true freedom. Following the reformation of his crew in South American, his desires were refocused on his desire to uphold his family unit. His criminal activity was primarily motivated by the desire support his family financially. Following the theft of Reyes’s $100 million dollars, Dominic, Mia and Brian retire from to leave the life of theft.

Dominic is frequently mistaken by his opponents as ignorant or lacking intelligence. However, Dominic is mindful of his surroundings and often plans ahead when the situation calls for it. His desire to protect his family boarders on self-sacrifice. He was willing to risk his livelihood to steal back the military satellite CPU from Owen Shaw as Shaw’s plane began to crash. In extreme instances, Dominic often tries to sacrifice himself for the advance of his friends and family’s survival even it means he’ll die in the process.

Abilities

Dominic is career racer and proficient driver, adept at driving various vehicles. Dominic is skilled in varying race and street sports, such as cornering and drifting, but prefers quarter mile races. Dominic is often reckless, using extreme measures to resolve equally extreme situations. In two different occasions, Dominic drove his Dodge Charger R/T off the cliff and smashed it in order to escape from Mose Jakande and his men, and twice he smashed directly in a head-on collision with Deckard Shaw.

Dominic is adept at fixing and tuning cars, rivaled only by Tej Parker in experience. He built the Dodge Charger R/T with his father. He built and tuned several vehicles that he owned, including two 1970 Plymouth Road Runners and a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle from an audition race for Braga’s crew membership.

As a street fighter, Dominic uses unorthodox methods to fight his opponents. He is not afraid to use blunt weapons, such as wrenches and pipes. Despite being less skilled than trained fighters such as Brian, Luke Hobbs, Owen Shaw or Deckard Shaw, he resorts to his strength to win. His impulsiveness and aggression is often a driving force in winning fights, but as he matured, he learned to keep his head and resort to more tactical methods. Unlike many of his opponents, Dominic rarely resorts to using firearms. When he does use firearms, his preference is often the shotgun.

Even though Dominic prefers fists over firearms, he is adept at using them. He mainly prefers using shotguns, and once, he made a sawn-off. While he was under attack from Reyes’s men, he saved Hobbs’s life and killed several attacking men using a shotgun from Hobbs’s armored truck.

Dominic is rather intelligent and uses his opponent’s presumption to regard him as ignorant to his advantage. He perchance of elaborate heists, such as the 2004 truck hijackings, and the 2009 fuel thefts, saw him and his given teams incorporate high end and luxury vehicles into his plans. When collaborating with Brian in 2009, he devised a plan to hijack 100 million dollars in Rio from Hernan Reyes, a Brazilian drug lord, and also aided Luke Hobbs to capture Owen Shaw.

After escaping capture in the U.S for hijacking cars, he was able to escape from the county. He managed to remain in hiding for five years from the U.S government, travelling across Central and South America, such as Mexico, Dominican Republic, Panama, Ecuador and Brasil. After stealing 100 million dollars from Hernan Reyes, he hid in the Canary Island in Spain mainly because there was no extradition clause

Домини́к Торе́тто (англ. Dominic Toretto) —  вымышленный персонаж, главный протагонист знаменитой серии фильмов «Форсаж» (2001-2011), сыгранный Вином Дизелем.

Биография

Форсаж

В первой части Доминик Торетто вместе со своей командой грабит грузовики с техникой. Для того чтобы разобраться с этим делом, полиция поручает Брайну О’Коннеру внедриться в его команду и раздобыть информацию о грабителях. Ценой своей тачки (Mitsubishi Eclipse RS) ему удаётся попасть на гонку с участием Доминика, а затем и к нему в дом на вечеринку после погони и встречи с Треном. Позже Доминик рассказывает Брайну о своём детстве и о смерти отца во время гонок, о том, как он избил виновного, что стало причиной его первой ходки и отстранения от гонок на всю жизнь. Так Торетто встаёт на преступный путь. Но он, как старший в семье, должен заботиться о своей младшей сестре Мии. Ей некуда идти, и она встает на сторону брата, понимая, что его жизненное кредо противоречит её нравам. Вскоре выясняется, что Брайн —  коп. Предупредив Мию об опасности для её брата, он вместе с ней отправляется искать Дона, когда тот проворачивал очередное дело. В конце фильма Брайн отпускает Дона, Мию, Леноа и Летти.

Форсаж 4

В четвертой части Доминик переезжает в Доминиканскую республику и продолжает нападения на трейлеры вместе с Летти Ортис и своими новыми друзьями: Ханом Лю, Рико и Тего. После очередного дела Хан сообщает ему, что легавые взяли след. Опасаясь ареста, Дом оставляет группу и свою подругу Летти и перебирается в Панаму. Но звонок Мии заставляет Доминика вернуться в Лос-Анджелес: оказывается, что его подруга была убита на дороге при загадочных обстоятельствах. Вернувшись в город, Доминик узнаёт, что за убийством стоит некто Феникс, правая рука Артуро Брага —  крупного наркодилера. Федерал Брайн О’Коннер тоже расследует дело, где фигурирует Брага. После недолгого соперничества Доминик и Брайн решают объединиться. В конце фильма Брага арестовывают, а виновного в смерти Летти Феникса убивает сам Доминик, раздавив машиной. Сам он, несмотря на прошение Брайна и личные заслуги в поимке преступника, приговаривается к 25 годам заключения в тюрьме строгого режима «Ломпак». Но Брайн и Миа освобождают его во время перевозки заключенных в тюрьму.

Форсаж 5

Освободив Дома, в пятой части, Брайн О’Коннер и Миа вынуждены скрываться от властей, пересекая границу за границей. Приезжая в Рио-де-Жанейро (Бразилия), они принимают работу, предложенную их старым другом Винсом, у которого они остановились для ожидания прибытия Дома. Их задачей становится угон трёх охраняемых автомобилей из идущего поезда. Все планы рушатся из-за людей коррумпированного бизнесмена Эрнана Рейса, которым нужна одна из машин — Ford GT40, а точнее чип, находящийся в ней. Охоту за командой грабителей затеял и специально присланный агент Хоббс. Дом выгоняет Винса за «предательство», но позже прощает его и снова пускает в команду. Доминик решает отомстить Рейсу — украсть у него 100 миллионов долларов, спрятанные в тайниках. Собрав команду, Доминик похищает деньги, которые поровну делит между всеми членами команды. В ограблении ему помогли агент Хоббс и офицер Елена Нивес, которая стала новой подругой Торетто.

Токийский дрифт

В третьей части «Форсажа» Доминик появляется лишь в конце, когда он вызывает на гонку главного героя третьего фильма —  Шона. Шон соглашается на гонку только потому, что Доминик знал Хана, убитого ДиКеем. Финал гонки не показан.

Dominic «Dom» Toretto is a fictional character and one of the two main protagonists of the Fast & Furious franchise. He is portrayed by Vin Diesel and first appeared on film, alongside the other protagonist Brian O’Conner, in The Fast and the Furious (2001). Dominic was created by screenwriter Gary Scott Thompson, who was inspired by an article on street racing that was published in the May 1998 issue of Vibe magazine, while Diesel was heavily sought after to play the character.^[2]

As the patriarch of a group of street racers, Dom acts as an influential voice, being forced into the role as primary caregiver following his father’s untimely passing. As the leader, he initially worked as an auto mechanic, but eventually progressed to orchestrating carjackings, a multi-million dollar heist, and illicit jobs for government agencies.

Dominic is gruff, strong, and possesses a volatile temper, especially when his family is in danger. He preaches morality and loyalty, and in many cases is also seen to be affectionate and religious. He is married to Letty Ortiz, with whom he raises a son.^[3] He is also implied to be the group’s strongest and most skilled racer, a title that is challenged persistently by Brian.

The role propelled Diesel to become a bankable Hollywood star. He won the 2002 and 2014 MTV Movie Awards for Best On-Screen Team with Paul Walker for his performances.^[3] Diesel has served as executive producer for the franchise’s later installments.^[4]

Development[edit]

The Fast and the Furious film series was inspired by an article on street racing, «Racer X», that appeared in the May 1998 issue of Vibe magazine.^[5] Having witnessed his father’s death in a stock car race, Dom is left with the responsibility of taking care of his younger sister, Mia Toretto, and leading the racers dependent on him.^[6] Vin Diesel was reportedly paid $2.5 million to star in The Fast and the Furious and $15 million to star in and produce Fast Five.^[3][7]

Appearances[edit]

Dominic Toretto is a fearless street racer, auto mechanic, and ex-convict. The character is the older brother of Jakob and Mia Toretto. Throughout the series, Dom’s crew has perpetrated many high-speed semi hijackings, stealing millions of dollars in merchandise. He has spent most of his life running from the law. He is married to Letty Ortiz, his longtime wife.

The Fast and the Furious[edit]

In the first film, Dom runs his own automotive garage while Mia takes care of the family’s grocery store in Echo Park. He also runs his own street race team, which consists of Letty, Vince, Leon, and Jesse. Dominic has a feud with his Vietnamese-American rival Johnny Tran due to a business deal that went sour and Tran catching Dom sleeping with his sister. Unknown to the public, he and his team drive black Honda Civic coupes and stage daring semi hijackings on the freeways, taking home millions of dollars in electronic appliances. He forms a friendship with rookie racer Brian Earl Spilner (Brian O’Conner), who saves him from arrest when the LAPD raid a street race gathering. When showing Brian the 1970 Dodge Charger he had been working with his father before he died, he reveals what happened to the latter: During the last stock car race of the season in 1989, Dominic watched as his father Jack was run off the track by another racer, Kenny Linder, when Linder’s car clipped his bumper. Jack was killed instantly when his stock car crashed into the wall at 120 miles per hour and burst into flames. Dominic remembered hearing his father screaming as he burned to death, but the people who witnessed the accident explained that his father had died before his car exploded. Dominic had been the one screaming. A week following the accident, Dominic encountered Linder and when given the opportunity, Dominic attacked Linder, beating him with a wrench. Dominic only intended to hit him once but lost control and kept attacking Linder it until he couldn’t lift his arm anymore. The result of Linder’s injuries rendered him unable to race, and Dominic was banned for life from the tracks. During the Race Wars, Johnny Tran blames Dominic for a raid by SWAT forces; the SWAT team came into his house, causing disrespect to his family. Dom then attacks him and is promptly led away by Vince, who tells him to «chill out».^{[clarification needed]} During a hijacking job gone wrong, Dominic discovers Brian’s true identity as undercover LAPD officer named Brian O’Conner. Following a drag race that ends with Dominic’s 1970 Dodge Charger getting totalled, Brian hands him the keys to his Toyota Supra, as law enforcement have found out that Toretto has stolen millions in electronics with his crew. Dom ends up escaping to Mexico, while Brian, now a wanted man himself for aiding a known felon, flees the state.

2 Fast 2 Furious[edit]

Dom plays no role in the second film’s events, but is only referenced when Brian tells Roman Pearce about him.

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift[edit]

Dom makes a cameo appearance at the end of the film challenging Sean Boswell in a drift race with his gunmetal silver 1970 Plymouth Road Runner, which he won from his late friend Han.
This film takes place after the events of Fast & Furious 6 and before Furious 7.

Fast & Furious[edit]

In Fast & Furious, Dominic, Letty, and their gang lead a successful hijacking of a gasoline tanker in the Dominican Republic, but he abandons them shortly after to keep the authorities away from them. Dominic returns to L.A. upon hearing of Letty’s death at the hands of Fenix Calderon. He and Brian once again team up to take down Mexican drug dealer Arturo Braga, who had ordered Letty’s execution following a drug run. He later finds out Brian was the last person who had contact with Letty; this enrages him, and he attacks Brian before the latter explains that Letty came to him for help in clearing Dom’s name so he could return to Los Angeles. After successfully extraditing Braga back to the U.S., Dom turns himself in to the authorities and is sentenced to 25 years to life in prison without possibility of early parole. However, the bus carrying him is ambushed by Brian, Mia, Rico and Tego; once Dom is sprung from the bus wreckage, the group flees the U.S. as fugitives.

Fast Five[edit]

In the fifth, Dominic reunites with Brian, Mia and Vince in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. They quickly make an enemy of drug lord Hernan Reyes, who has them framed for the murder of three DEA agents during a drug run on a train. As a means to get even with Reyes, Dom and Brian form a team with Roman Pearce, Tej Parker, Han, Gisele Yashar, Rico and Tego to stage a bank heist and steal Reyes’ stash of US$100 million in cash. Elite bounty hunter and DSS federal agent Luke Hobbs is sent to Brazil to hunt down and capture Dom and his gang, but when he is ambushed by Reyes’ men, during which all of his team are killed, he forms an unlikely alliance with Dom and helps the gang execute their heist. Vince is badly wounded during the gunfight and later succumbs to his injuries. After killing Reyes, Hobbs allows Dom and his gang to leave Brazil with their stash by giving them a 24-hour window; Dom gives Vince’s share of the money to his wife and son. Hobbs’ partner Elena Neves also leaves the force and becomes Dominic’s new love interest.

Fast & Furious 6[edit]

In the sixth film, Dom once again encounters Hobbs, who offers him a job to help him hunt down mercenary Owen Shaw and his crime syndicate; Hobbs also reveals that Letty is alive and working for Shaw. Dom and Brian reassemble their gang (minus Rico and Tego, both of whom are in Monaco) in London for the mission, in exchange for a full pardon for all members and Letty’s safe return. During the chase, Dom is shot by Letty, and he later discovers that she is suffering from amnesia as a result of the explosion that nearly killed her in Fast & Furious. He saves her from falling to her death while the gang stops Shaw aboard a military tank on a bridge in Spain. Shaw, however, reveals his backup plan of kidnapping Mia, and uses her as leverage in order to be released from custody and allowed to leave with the top-secret microchip that was removed from the tank. Despite the death of Gisele, Dom and his gang defeat Shaw and kill his men while saving Mia and the microchip in a daring chase at a NATO military airfield. Hobbs grants their pardons, and Dom and his gang move back to his home in L.A. Seeing Dom and Letty back together for good, Elena bids him farewell and returns to working with Hobbs. In a post credit scene, Owen Shaw’s elder brother, Deckard Shaw, kills Han in Tokyo and calls Dom with a threatening message.

Furious 7[edit]

In Furious 7, it is revealed that Owen Shaw survived the events of the previous film but is comatose, and his older brother Deckard Shaw has gone rogue and is hunting Dom’s team. Some time after the events of Tokyo Drift and Fast and Furious 6, Dom and Letty have returned to L.A., but Letty later breaks up with Dom in order to find herself again after her memory loss. Meanwhile, Shaw kills Han in Tokyo (bridging the story between this film and Tokyo Drift) and sends a bomb to Dom’s house, blowing it up. After retrieving Han’s body from Sean Boswell in Tokyo, a revenge-driven Dom decides to take Shaw down alone, but is stopped by a Covert Ops leader and Hobbs’ friend Mr. Nobody. Nobody offers Dom a way to hunt Shaw through a software named «God’s Eye»; however he also must save its creator, a hacker named Ramsey, from terrorist leader Mose Jakande and his men. Agreeing to the deal, Dominic, Brian, Letty, Tej and Roman lead a daring rescue through the mountains of Azerbaijan and succeed in liberating Ramsey from her captors. Ramsey tells them that she sent God’s Eye to her friend Zafar in Abu Dhabi. After a successful retrieval of the God’s Eye (that also involved Dom and Brian jumping a vehicle through three buildings), they find Shaw’s hideout, but are ambushed by Jakande’s men; many of Nobody’s men are killed and Nobody himself is gravely injured, while Dom and Brian barely escape. Afterwards, Dom decides to take down Shaw and Jakande on their home turf in L.A. Dom and Shaw end up in an intense fight on the rooftop of a parking garage, while Brian and the others distract Jakande and Ramsey initiates a hack to shut down God’s Eye for good. They succeeded in doing so, and Jakande is killed when Dom hooks a bag of grenades onto his chopper (which Hobbs shoots) before crashing his vehicle, causing his friends to believe that he died in the process. Letty then reveals that she has regained her memories of their relationship (which also reveals that they were married somewhere in between the story of Los Bandoleros and Fast & Furious), and Dom recovers from being unconscious. After this, Brian decides to retire from the crew in order to spend time with his family. Dom leaves without saying goodbye, prompting Brian to catch up to him at an intersection, and the two have one last drive before parting ways.

The final drive scene was done to give Brian’s role a clean retirement and a send-off after the actor who portrays him, Paul Walker, died in a single vehicle accident back in 2013.

The Fate of the Furious[edit]

In the eighth film, Dom and Letty are now living in Cuba, where Dom is approached by a mysterious, seductive woman known as Cipher. After betraying his team during an operation in Berlin to steal an EMP device they were assigned to recover, it is revealed that Cipher — the true mastermind behind both the attempted creation of the Nightshade device in Fast & Furious 6 and the near-theft of the God’s Eye hacking device in Furious 7 — has captured Elena and Dom’s previously-unknown son, using them as blackmail tools to ensure Dom’s cooperation, later letting her right-hand man and second-in-command, Connor Rhodes to kill Elena. Despite Cipher’s dismissal of Dom’s views on family and her access to multiple surveillance systems, Dom manages to use his contacts to pass on a message to Magdalene Shaw, Deckard and Owen’s mother, allowing her to retrieve her sons and send them aboard Cipher’s plane via a tracking device slipped into Dom’s necklace. Once the Shaws retrieve his son, Dom kills Rhodes, avenging Elena’s death before rejoining his team and destroying a Russian nuclear submarine that Cipher was attempting to steal. Although Cipher escapes, Dom vows to Elena to protect their new son, naming the boy Brian after his brother-in-law and best friend.

F9[edit]

A now-retired Dom, who is raising little Brian on a farm with Letty, is called by Mr. Nobody to stop a genocide mission led by Dom’s estranged younger brother Jakob. It is revealed that Dom banished Jakob from the family because he believed that he caused their father’s death by sabotaging the stock car’s engine, causing it to burst into flames when it crashed. Dom and Jakob fight each other several times in the film, with Jakob going as far as to wanting Dom to either live under his shadow or get killed. Jakob reveals to Dom that he tampered with the car’s engine because their father told him to, as he was trying to throw the race to clear some debts, but his plan went wrong when Kenny Linder hit car with his by using his dirty tactics. Towards the end of the film, however, Dom and Jakob reconcile and team up in the film’s final battle in an attempt to defeat Cipher, although she escapes once more. As a way of making amends to Jakob, who had been branded a rogue agent, Dom gives him the keys to his car — just as Brian did for Dom several years ago — allowing him to evade custody.

Characterization[edit]

Dominic has been described as «a gruff but affectionate father to his loyal pack of renegades, providing them with barbecue, protection, and a rough moral code to live by.»^[8] Vin Diesel has described Dominic as «a character who is strong, who is a caretaker.»^[3] In contrast to Brian’s estranged relationship with his father, Dominic is shown to «put family first» and be very protective of Mia. He is also implied to be religious, insisting that all members in a dinner table say grace and that the first person to take a bite must bless the meal.

In The Fast and the Furious, Dominic’s volatile temper stems from a painful incident during his teenage years, when his father, a stock car racer, was killed in a race after a driver named Kenny Linder accidentally sent him to the wall at 120 mph. Distraught by his father’s death, Dominic assaulted Linder a week later with a torque wrench and left him hospitalized with severe head injuries. Dominic served time (2 years) in prison and was banned from racing for the attack. He nearly replicates the action while fighting Hobbs in Fast Five, only to (purposely) miss Hobbs’ head by an inch when Mia begs him to stop.

In Fast Five, Dominic recalls the influence his father had on him. His father would help Mia with her homework everyday and sending her to bed, he would stay up late reading the next chapter, to make sure he could help her the next day. On Sundays, the family would attend church and host a barbecue for the neighborhood; those who did not attend church would not be allowed at the barbecue.

However, Dominic is also obsessed with racing. In the first film, he says: «I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I’m free.» In The Fate of the Furious, Cipher repeats a similar phrase to Dominic to question his loyalty to his family.^[9]
Over the course of the series Dom exhibits the strength, stamina, and reflexes of a world-class athlete. He is also an excellent marksman and hand-to-hand combatant.

Cars[edit]

Dominic’s Charger[edit]

In four of the films, Dom drove his deceased father’s black 1970 Dodge Charger.^[10] In the first film, Dom tells Brian that he and his father built the 900 horsepower car, but that he had never driven it, because it «scares the shit out of [him].»^[11] Dom uses it to help Brian by attacking one of Tran’s henchmen. He later races Brian’s Supra with it; however, he totals it when he collides with a truck.

In Fast & Furious he sees that Letty has rebuilt it for him, as she was hoping that he would return to the United States. Later in the film, Dom takes it to Mexico and shields Brian’s car with it, but destroys it by running into a stack of propane canisters in the tunnels. In the final scene of the film, Brian is shown to have rebuilt it, and Dom recognizes the sound of the engine while riding in a prison bus. In Fast Five, it is shown that Brian brakes in front of the bus, causing the bus to collide with it and flip. Dom uses it throughout the film to win cars to test for their vault heist. Meanwhile, Hobbs uses it to track the location of Dom’s gang by having his men check camera feeds for a 1970 Charger. When Hobbs comes to arrest Dom, he crashes his Gurkha F5 into his Charger, cutting it in half, which triggers a fight between the pair.

In Furious 7, near the end of the movie he goes to his home which was recently blown up by Deckard Shaw, and in the garage is his Charger covered up. He uncovers it revealing the slightly different new look. He takes the Charger to the top of a rooftop where he faces Shaw in a game of chicken. When the parking lot is later collapsing due to missiles, Toretto ramps it off the building destroying it yet again.

The car appears hoodless in F9.

The car goes through some changes. In the first film, it is chrome trimmed, while in the fourth film it is black trimmed, with an extra grill cover. In the fifth film it is matte black, with black wheels and the supercharger removed. In the seventh film, Torretto’s Charger has the supercharger again. The car still has black trim but is no longer matte black but metallic black. Also a different set of rims. In F9, it once again resembles the first film with Silver Trim.

In Fast & Furious 6, Dom gives his nephew Jack a diecast replica of his black Charger, hoping to keep him away from Brian’s habits of favoring imports. Later in the film, Dom drives a maroon Dodge Charger Daytona, which is acquired by Tej Parker at a car auction in London. While it is not the same car as his signature black Charger, it is a direct nod to The Charger.

At the very end of Furious 7, Toretto is seen with the Project Maximus Ultra 1968 Dodge Charger.

In The Fate of the Furious, Toretto drives an armoured version of his usual Charger in the film’s final confrontation.
