It reframes the job as a Robin Hood-esque caper, in which Dom and his buds steal the gas to give to people they know who desperately need the fuel. The short gives some context to the opening sequence of “Fast & Furious,” when Dom and his crew hijack a gasoline tanker truck. “Los Bandoleros” fills in backstory about how Dom knows those guys, who then show up in his crew at the start of “Fast & Furious.” It finds Dom Toretto (Diesel) in the Dominican Republic, where he meets up with characters who would go on to return in later movies, including Han (Sung Kang), Tego (Tego Calderon) and Santos (Don Omar). “Los Bandoleros” bridges some of the gap.

Diesel exited the series before the second movie, “2 Fast 2 Furious,” which starred Paul Walker, Tyrese Gibson and Chris “Ludacris” Bridges. That would be “Los Bandoleros.” The 20-minute short film was written and directed by franchise star and producer Vin Diesel, and it adds a bit of key context to the series by introducing characters and bridging the gap between the events of “The Fast and the Furious” and “Fast & Furious,” the fourth movie in the franchise.īefore “Fast & Furious,” the franchise continuity was kind of a mess. “Fate of the Furious” is officially the eighth “Fast & Furious” movie - but there’s probably at least one film in the canon that many fans have never seen before.
