Will Gisele Yashar be back in the 10th Fast & Furious? That’s what it seems…
Warning, spoilers. The following article reveals key plot elements of “Fast & Furious 6” and “Fast & Furious 9”.
As reported by The Direct and ComingSoon, Gal Gadot has filmed a scene for Fast X which could mark the return of her character, Gisele Yashar, to the franchise. It remains to be seen now whether the scene will be part of the final cut of the 10th installment of Fast & Furious.
This is therefore a big surprise for fans of the saga since the character was killed while trying to save Han Lue (Sung Kang) in Fast & Furious 6 (2013). However, given that Han Lue’s death was faked and the character made his own return from the dead in the franchise’s 9th installment in 2021, it’s clear that anything is possible in the mad world. from Fast & Furious.

During the promotion of Fast & Furious 9, actor Sung Kang, meanwhile, had publicly supported the return of Gal Gadot in the franchise, thus confiding in Insider on the subject.
I think we need Gisele back… in every way. I think the fans want that. We have to make it happen somehow.
Additional details have been revealed via the always-reliable BigScreenLeaks Twitter account which reported that Gal Gadot was only in a version of Fast X which screened on December 21st. The actress of Wonder Woman therefore appears in a single scene at the end of the film. An alternate cut that was screened the previous week didn’t include the actress, so her cameo might not be a sure thing for the final film.
However, the scene apparently did not go down very well with the audience present as the exchange below indicates.
BigScreenLeaks also points out that the situation is similar to Barry Keoghan’s Joker in The Batman, where the studio was curious to see how audiences would react. In Keoghan’s case, the scene wasn’t included in the theatrical release, so we’ll have to wait and see what happens in Gal Gadot’s.
Directed by Louis Leterrier, Fast X should be released on our screens on May 17, 2023. In the meantime, you can find the first 7 installments of the Fast & Furious saga streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
