Presumably , the emojis here present six of the characters that are give back inFast & Furious 9 . The bald - headed figure understandably bear on to Diesel as Dom , while the following three likely represent Rodriguez as Letty , Tyrese Gibson as Roman Pearce ( hencehisbald head ) , and Jordana Brewster as Dom ’s sis Mia . While Mia ’s husband Brian O’Connor was " retired " inFurious Sevenafter Paul Walker ’s destruction , Diesel previously confirmed that Brewster would returninFast & Furious 9 , after being left out ofThe Fate of the Furious . Finally , the two emojis with laptops no doubt comprise the two technical school - savvy members of Dom ’s family unit , e.g. Ramsey and Tej Parker ( Chris " Ludacris " Bridges ) .
With a production team that include both the series ' first distaff author and director Justin Lin ( who was responsible for helming some of the most acclaimedFast & Furiousfilms to escort , likeFast Five),Fast & Furious 9seems to be in jolly good figure justly now .

Among other thing , Fast & Furious 9was delayed by a year in 2017 and made headlines for the incorrect reasons whenGibson subsequently lashed out publicly at Johnson , find fault him andHobbs & Shawfor the escort alteration . And not long before that , Rodriguez called the franchise out on social medium for not treat its female characters well - something that Diesel supported and also helped to get development going ona women - ledFast & Furiousspinoff .
