The Real-Life Inspiration Behind The Fast & Furious Franchise
The Fast & Furious saga has grown steadily grown into one of the biggest movie franchises of all time, but its story and characters were actually inspired by a little-known article about real-life street racers. Beginning in 2001 with Rob Cohen's The Fast & the Furious, thefranchise has ballooned in size and scope over more than two decades, with Fast X teased to be the biggest entry yet. The majority of the films follow Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and an ever-shifting ensemble cast of heroes and villains as they engage in what appears to be a perpetually escalating series of high-octane stunts.
