Elena M Reyes Biography & Facts

Fast & Furious (also known as The Fast and the Furious) is an American action film series centered on street racing, heists, spies, and family. The following is a list of characters from the film franchise. Overview Main characters Dominic Toretto Dominic "Dom" Toretto, played by Vin Diesel, appears in most of the films in the series. An elite street racer, auto mechanic, and an ex-convict, Dominic is the brother of Jakob and Mia, son of Jack, husband of Letty Ortiz, cousin of Tony and Fernando, uncle of Jack O'Conner and Jack's younger sister, and father of Brian Marcos Toretto. In The Fast and the Furious, Dom leads a double life in Los Angeles with his sister Mia, his girlfriend Letty, best friend Vince, and teammates Leon and Jesse. During the day, he tunes performance vehicles out of the auto shop behind his family's grocery store (which is run by Mia). At night, Dom and his team participate in illegal street racing in and around downtown LA. When they are not racing or working in the garage, the team performs precision hijackings out of three black high-performance Honda Civics, targeting container semi-trucks on LA freeways transporting electronic merchandise valued at hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. LAPD police officer Brian O'Connor infiltrates the group while working undercover, using the alias of Brian Spilner and the guise of a new racer eager to participate in high-stakes matches. On his first night, he challenges Dom by buying into a race using the pink slip for his Mitsubishi Eclipse (later said to be valued at $80,000). Brian ultimately loses the race, and a subsequent run-in with Dom's rival Johnny Tran leads to the Eclipse's destruction. The result places Brian in debt to Dom for an equally capable vehicle that can run a quarter-mile in ten seconds. Over the following weeks and months, and much to the chagrin of Vince, Brian works closely with Dom and his team to restore a Toyota Supra in time to participate in Race Wars, a legal racing event held in the desert outside of LA that attracts hundreds of participants. Dom ultimately discovers Brian's identity when Brian is forced to expose himself to save Vince after their final daytime hijacking goes awry. Vince, having sustained physical trauma from the endeavor, is bleeding out, forcing Brian to call for medevac and announce himself as an LAPD officer. This deception infuriates Dom, who immediately departs with Mia, Leon and Letty. By the time Vince is loaded onto the medevac, Dom is speeding away in the last remaining Civic with the remnants of Dom's team. Brian catches up to Dom at his home in LA; Leon and Letty having already fled to avoid arrest. When Tran and his cousin Lance attempt a drive-by shooting on dirt bikes as revenge for an earlier dispute, Brian and Dom pursue them in separate cars. Dom, in his late father's 1970 Dodge Charger, manages to incapacitate Lance while Brian pursues Tran in his Supra and kills him after shooting him in the side, causing him to crash at high speed on his motorcycle. Dom then challenges Brian to a race, pitting the Charger vs. the Supra on a quarter-mile strip with a railroad crossing as the finish line. The two engage in the high-speed drag race ultimately against an oncoming train. Barely surviving the train, Dom immediately collides with a semi-truck pulling out of a side street causing the Charger to flip multiple times. Brian, rushing to his aid, understands Dom's plight and fulfilling his commitment to give Dom a ten-second car, hands over the keys to his Supra. Dom departs as the sound of police sirens approaches, leaving Brian to answer for his failure. In a post-credits scene, Dom is seen driving a Chevrolet Chevelle in Baja California, having eluded capture. Although Dom is not in 2 Fast 2 Furious, he is referred to a couple of times. In Los Bandoleros, Dom remains on the run from the law in the Dominican Republic, putting together a new team to pull off heists: Han, Cara, Tego Leo, and Rico Santos. After breaking Tego out of prison, Letty returns and rekindles her romance with Dom. Sometime after this (as revealed in Furious 7), Dom and Letty marry. In Fast & Furious, Dominic and his team pull off another heist in the Dominican Republic but have become so infamous with the law that doing so puts them at risk. Dom decides to disband the team, allowing them to move on. Despite Letty wanting to remain with him, Dom leaves in order to protect her. But months later, he is forced to return to the United States upon learning of Letty's apparent death. He reunites with Brian and teams up with him to stop drug lord Arturo Braga in order to avenge Letty. By the end, Dom gives himself up to the law to face the consequences of his actions but the transport taking him to prison is intercepted by Brian, Mia, Tego, and Rico to free him. In Fast Five, Dominic, Brian, and Mia are now on the run, finding refuge in Rio de Janeiro. In order to escape the authorities and from drug kingpin Hernan Reyes, their newest enemy, they plot to steal Reyes's money in an attempt to buy their freedom. During a talk with Brian, Dominic recalls his happy childhood with his father and Mia. Dominic, Brian, and Mia put together new team to pull off a heist, made of Roman, Tej, Gisele, Han, Rico, and Tego. They also try to evade capture by the DSS agent Luke Hobbs and Rio police officer Elena Neves. Hobbs and Elena become allies to Dominic after his team saves them from Reyes's men. With the help of his team, Dominic's heist is successful, and goes into hiding with Mia and Brian, while starting a relationship with Elena, who falls in love with him. In Fast & Furious 6, Dominic lives peacefully with Elena. He is approached by Hobbs, who asks him to help take down Owen Shaw and his rogue team in exchange for their freedom to be granted. Hobbs also reveals that Shaw's second-in-command is an amnesiac but still-alive Letty. With Elena's support, Dominic regroups with his team and tries to talk to Letty to remember him and her former friends. Through numerous actions, he eventually gains Letty's trust, and defeats Shaw. His group is given full pardons from their crimes, and they return to the United States. Elena becomes Hobbs's new partner so that Dominic can be with Letty and start anew. In a post credit scene, he would later get a call with a threatening message from a man related to Owen Shaw, who has apparently killed Han. In The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, he makes a cameo appearance at the end of the film as an old friend of Han's, who has been apparently killed in a car crash, challenging the new Drift King, Sean Boswell, to a drift race. In Furious 7, Dominic and his team returns to LA as free people leading their own personal lives until they are recruited by mysterious government agent Mr Nobody to rescue Ramsey, a hacker with a device known as God's Eye which is capable to locate anyone on Earth, who has been captured by mercenary....
