Jason Momoa says his Fast X villain has “daddy issues”

Jason Momoa has given us a flavor of what to expect from his Fast X villain: he’s “very sadistic” and has “daddy issues.”

You’d be forgiven for not remembering most of the villains in theFast & Furiousfranchise. In the first film, Vince (Matt Schulze) butts heads with Brian (Paul Walker), and Dom (Vin Diesel) clashes with Johnny Tran (Rick Yune), but they’re mostly side fodder to the flourishing bromance.

Thereafter, we had Carter Verone (Cole Hauser) and Arturo Braga (John Ortiz). Don’t forget, Dwayne Johnson’s Agent Hobbs was first introduced as a baddie of sorts, followed by the Shaw brothers (Luke Evans and Jason Statham), Cipher (Charlize Theron) and Jakob Toretto (John Cena).

Alas, the Fast Saga is coming to an end, withFast Xset to be the first part of an epic finale. Momoa has been enlisted to go up againstla familia– and he’s really excited.

“Time of my life. I get to be the bad guy finally. I’ve been the good guy for a while,” he said.

“He’s very sadistic and androgynous and he’s a bit of a peacock… he’s got a lot of issues, this guy. He’s definitely got some daddy issues.”

There aren’t any plot details for Fast X, but Theron will also return as Cipher, so perhaps Momoa’s bad guy is her latest accomplice after Jakob ditched her in Fast & Furious 9.
