The characters say family 76 times in the Fast and Furious movie franchise. Fast X includes the magical word 22 times in total.

Fast and Furious franchise is known for "Family" instead of cars, action, or the seemingly impossible heists the characters pull off in pop culture lately.

Fast X became the film with the most mention of the word 22 times, which is six times more than the second-standing film 'The Fate of the Furious' (popularly known as F8).

While the fans of the series know the reason behind Fast and Furious movies centering around family is not because of the actual family-related storylines, let me clarify for others, it is because of the excessive use of the term.

Here is a complete breakdown of the use of the word family in the Fast and Furious films in order of the movie.

1. The Fast and the Furious (2001): 2 Times.
2. 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003): No Vin, No Family.
3. The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006): 2 Times.
4. Fast & Furious (2009): 2 Times.
5. Fast Five (2011): 5 Times (scriptwriters maintaining consistency)

8. The Fate of the Furious (2017): 16 Times.
9. F9 (2021): 7 Times
10. Fast X (2023): 22 Times (the highest of all).

Momoa Topped Vin Diesel By Saying Family Multiple Times

Jason Momoa said the word family 9 times in Fast X, which is 8 times more than Vin Diesel. Momoa is stealing the show by topping him.

Momoa portrays the character of Dante Reyes, the son of Drug Lord Hernan Reyes.

The character is seeking vengeance for the death of his father in the events of Fast Five (2011) where Reyes also lost most of his fortune in the heist where Dom and Brian stole an entire safe.

Although you will need to find out if Dante was successful in getting his vengeance on Dom at the theater, we can tell you one thing Dante uses the word family 9 times. It may be ten but the tenth one is unclear.

He becomes the character to use the word most times in Fast X putting Dante just behind Dominic Toretto by two families. As the sequel of Fast X has already been announced Dante may actually break the record in the next film.

Nevertheless, Momoa topped Vin Diesel by 8 times in using the word Family in Fast X.
