F9: What To Remember About Every Fast & Furious Character Before The Sequel

Han Lue (Sung Kang)

If you are watching the Fast and Furious movies by their release order, then The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift, released in 2006, is your introduction to Han Lue (Sung Kang). But, if you go by the franchise’s timeline, then Fast and Furious, released in 2009, is the first time the fan-favorite character showed up as a member of the Toretto crew. Confusing, right?

Chronologically, the last time we saw Han was when his character was killed off during a street race in Tokyo Drift, but as we learned in Furious 7, it was no accident, but instead the doing of Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham). Despite this violent death, a funeral, and all sorts of tributes, Han appears to be alive and well in F9, where, hopefully, his return is explained.
