The Agency

    Mr. Nobody 

Frank Petty A.K.A. Mr. Nobody

Played By: Kurt Russell Other Languages

Appearances: Furious 7 | The Fate of the Furious | F9 | Fast X note 

Frank Petty, also known as Mr. Nobody is a government agent and the leader of a covert ops team wanting to capture Mose Jakande, a mercenary coveting the God's Eye, a program capable of tracking a specific individual through digital service.


  • Asskicking Leads to Leadership: He isn't a head of an elite covert ops team for nothing. Even as his team got mowed down all around him during Deckard and Jakande's ambush, he remained in his calm persona and goes all Guns Akimbo on Jakande's men until Kiet shot him and, despite being heavily injured, ultimately survived.
  • Big Good: As of Furious 7. While Dom's crew work on the field to thwart the bad guys, it's Mr. Nobody who conceives the operations to capture them behind the scenes.
  • Cool Old Guy: He's in his sixties, but he still goes into the field himself and holds his own better than most. When he's off duty, he's the type of guy you would definitely want to buy a Belgian Ale for him at the bar.
  • Crazy-Prepared: As revealed after the failed assault against Deckard Shaw, he was wearing a bulletproof vest underneath his coat, and has a medical team at his disposal in case things went to pot.
  • Deadpan Snarker: He has his moments, particularly regarding Dom's crews and their...devastating operation procedure.
    (After knowing the result of the crew's mission in Abu Dhabi) "I gotta say, you have an interesting interpretation of 'low-key'."
  • Faking the Dead: He helped falsify Han's death, so the latter could raise Elle in secrecy.
  • Idiot Ball: He picks it up when he takes only 12 men to help Dom and Brian take down Deckard, not realizing that Jakande might go back at Dom and his crew for rescuing Ramsey.
  • Offscreen Moment of Awesome: In F9, it's casually mentioned that he and his team managed to capture Cipher, the world's most talented and dangerous hacker, in an offscreen operation, although he lost her afterwards.
  • Red Herring: There's a moment when Dom's crew prepares to exchange the God's Eye with him and it appears that he'll pull a You Have Outlived Your Usefulness on the crew. He doesn't, and instead fulfills his end of the bargain by giving full support of his team to Dom's crew and Ramsey to track down Deckard, remaining as one of the good guys.
  • Sunglasses at Night: He's fond of wearing sunglasses, even inexplicably putting them on during the nighttime operation against Shaw that goes bad. Then it's revealed that said shades have night-vision, and he proceeds to mow down a half-dozen of Jakande's mooks before being injured.
  • Trademark Favorite Drink: Beer brewed by Belgian monks.
  • Uncertain Doom: It's ultimately unknown what happens to him in F9, as he is nowhere to be found by Dom's crew when they visit the site of his plane crash. It's rather strange since he is otherwise a constant presence in the flashbacks, and is mentioned a lot of times in the present. As of Fast X his status and whereabouts remain unknown.

    Little Nobody 

Little Nobody

Played By: Scott Eastwood Other Languages

Appearances: The Fate of the Furious | Fast X

Mr. Nobody's protegee, he is put in charge of running the team in The Fate of the Furious, to mixed results.


  • Butt-Monkey: This guy doesn't get any respect for most of the eighth movie, starting with Hobbs ragdolling him in his introductory scene.
  • By-the-Book Cop: He takes his job very seriously, which proves to be more trouble than it's worth when his blunt statement to Hobbs ends up pushing his Berserk Button and leaves a bad impression on Dom's crew when he's implied to forcibly take them in to recruit them to track Dom and Cipher down. This is, however, mostly due to inexperience rather than firmly believing in protocol, and he grows out of it by the time of the climax, with some encouragement from Hobbs.
  • Demoted to Extra: He has a much smaller role in Fast X than he does in Fate, only appearing in two scenes before being sidelined for the rest of the movie.
  • Ensign Newbie: He is essentially a fresh-out-of-Langley note  graduate and clearly still learning the ropes of undercover work, but Mr. Nobody still throws him to the deep end of the pool by having him run Team Torreto.
  • Leeroy Jenkins: During the New York chase, he's the first one to be taken out of commission by Dom when he rushes in first ahead of the crew and Dom tricks him into crashing into a shop, and later a scaffolding.
  • Only Known by Their Nickname: His real name is never brought up. He is only ever referred to by the nickname "Little Nobody", which he doesn't appreciate.
  • Pretty Boy: Hobbs lampshades this by asking why Mr. Nobody would want a boy band member as his assistant.
  • Strawman Has a Point:
    • His by-the-book approach naturally gets him a lot of flak from the rest of the team, but a few of points he brings up do have some practical base to them, particularly in the "toy shop."
    • He makes it clear to Tej that the prototype military vehicle does not go on public streets, which is an understandable restriction. He also stresses to Roman that a neon orange Lamborghini would attract too much attention. This claim is later validated during the final drive in Russia where Roman, in the aforementioned Lambo, is taking the bulk of the gunfire because his car was such a visible target and poorly suited for artic environments.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Seems to be one for Brian in his early police days. He's working on the force and prefers driving Japanese tuners (Subaru BRZ in New York, Subaru WRX in Russia) like Brian. And again, he's explicitly called a pretty boy, which is also what Brian used to be called back in the days.
  • What Happened to the Mouse?: In Fast X, it's unknown what happened to him after the chaos in Rome. Aimes only mentions he's been put "out of commission."

    Tess 

Tess

Played By: Brie Larson Other Languages

Appearances: Fast X

Tess is Mr. Nobody's daughter who also works as part of the Agency.


  • Action Girl: Par for the course of the series.
  • Defector from Decadence: She disagrees with Aimes' decision to turn the Agency against Dom, discreetly taking over the God's Eye and helping Letty escape.
  • Foil: Of Aimes. Both of them are highly ranked Agency members who can hold their own in fights, but they are exact opposites when it comes to the Torettos. While Tess abandons the Agency to do the right thing and help Dom, Aimes is a traitor helping Dante get his revenge. Tess even pretends to attack Letty as part of her plan, contrasting Aimes pretending to help Dom.
  • Following in Relative's Footsteps: She followed her father to become an Agency member.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!
  • Uncertain Doom: Her last scene in Fast X has her get shot in the shoulder. Although Isabel drives her to a hospital and Dom is optimistic of her survival, it is unknown what becomes of her after that.

    Aimes 

Aimes

Played By: Alan Ritchson Other Languages

Appearances: Fast X

The interim director of the Agency following Mr. Nobody's disappearance in F9 and Little Nobody's incapacitation in Rome. Aimes is Mr. Nobody's successor and the current leader of the CIA.


  • Deadpan Snarker: He has a very dry wit.
  • The Dragon: Revealed to be this for Dante.
  • Evil Counterpart: The reveal of his status as The Mole turns his status as a Suspiciously Similar Substitute of Hobbs into this.
  • Hate Sink: Aimes has NO redeeming characteristics throughout the film, as he not only antagonizes Dom and his crew, but when he seemingly pulls a Heel-Face Turn as a result of the attack launched by Dante, it was revealed that he was a mole working for the man the entire time. Because of this, those traits make him very unsympathetic.
  • Hypocrite: Aimes denounces Dom and his team as nothing but criminals and acts as though it was inevitable they would do something like the Rome attack on their own rather than entertain the notion that they were framed. He subsequently encourages the use of criminal informants to find the team, essentially condoning the very acts he allegedly condemned Nobody for. Then the ending reveals that he has been Dante's mole all along, working for an even worse criminal.
  • Inspector Javert: Unrelentingly pursues the Toretto clan, believing them to be dangerous terrorists. Or at least that's what he wants everyone else to think...
  • Jerkass: His default mode seems to be smirking, snarky asshole to ally and enemy alike.
  • Mole in Charge: Ultimately is revealed to have been on the payroll of the Reyes family since shortly before the events of Fast Five.
  • Rank Scales with Asskicking: The acting Director of the Agency, he also happens to be 6'2", built like a brick shithouse and good enough in hand-to-hand combat to demolish half a dozen Rio street thugs with his bare hands.
  • Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Considering all of Fast X's homages to Fast Five, Aimes pretty much retreads all of Hobbs' character traits and interactions from that film with regards to Dom, being a large and intimidating government agent that initially treats them as hostile criminals that need to be taken care of, going to great lengths to track Dom down, only to join his side when he's ambushed by the real villain of the movie. And then the whole thing is cruelly subverted when it turns out that all that talk about the crew being terrorists that need to be taken down was all a big pretense, and he's actually been Dante's mole and collaborator the entire time.
  • Villainous Friendship: With Dante.

FBI

    Bilkins 

Agent Bilkins

Played By: Thom Barry Other Languages

Appearances: The Fast and The Furious | 2 Fast 2 Furious

Bilkins is an FBI agent. As the agent in charge of the investigation into the truck heists, he was Brian's superior in the first film. In the second film he recruits Brian to participate in the operation to bring down Miami drug kingpin Carter Verone.


  • Bald of Authority: Bald and and Brian's former boss.
  • Character Development: Spends the first film firmly in the role of the Jerkass FBI Agent, he questions Brian's competence and is willing to blame the LAPD for the bad bust on Johnny Tran, citing it as a "perk of the job." By the time of the second film, he is much more patient with Brian and Roman and sticks up for them when Markham tries to accost Roman after the incident at the boatyard. Later in the film when Brian and Roman inform him that their mark, the drug lord Carter Verone, plans to kill the two of them after they deliver his drug money, Bilkins tries to call the operation off due to the two's lives being direclty in the line of fire, but is overruled by Markham. By the end of the second film, he demonstrates a deep respect and appreciation for Brian
  • Good Cop/Bad Cop: The good cop to Markham's bad in the second movie.
  • Jerkass: In the first movie, he’s ill-tempered and impatient.
  • Never My Fault: After a bust yields nothing, he shifts the blame to Tanner and Brian despite them warning him not to go through with it.
  • Pass the Popcorn: His initial reaction to Brian and Rome getting into a fight during their first meeting in years.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: Instead of dismissing Brian as a fugitive cop, he seeks out his assistance in the second film and allows Brian to recruit his ex-con friend to take down Verone.
    • Took a Level in Kindness: He's noticeably much nicer to Brian in 2 Fast 2 Furious more than in the first movie to contrast with the new Jerkass Agent Markham.

Agent Michael Stasiak

Played By: Shea Whigham Other Languages

Appearances: Fast & Furious | Fast & Furious 6 | F9

Michael Stasiak is an FBI agent who is at odds with Brian.


  • Butt-Monkey: Things rarely go right for Stasiak. Brian walks all over him, and his attempts to defend himself are dismissed as petulance by their boss.
  • Brick Joke: He first got his nose broken by Brian in 4, then again in 6 when Brian was trying to infiltrate the solitary cell to find Braga. It isn’t in F9, but we do get to see it has been permanently deformed because of the previous films.
  • Jerkass: He's an irritable pessimist.

  • Self-Deprecation: Loeb finishes a joke at the CIA's expense while talking with Shaw.

  • Good Cop/Bad Cop: The bad cop to Bilkins' good in the second movie.
  • Good Is Not Nice
  • Idiot Ball: He nearly blows Brisn and Roman's cover when he thought they were running and later completely blew Monica's cover when he sent the SWAT team in to raid the airstrip, which nearly got her killed.
  • Jerkass: He's really rude and disrespectful to Brian and Roman.
    • Jerkass Has a Point: They are criminals and he was against the deal because he didn't trust them with good reason, but his lack of trust did hinder things somewhat.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure/I Gave My Word: He lets Brian and Roman off the hook at the end of the movie as they held up their end of the deal and wishes them well.

Sergeant Tanner

A DSS agent and the partner of Luke Hobbs during the events of Fast and the Furious 6.


    Dinkley 

Air Marshal Dinkley

Played By: Kevin Hart Other Languages

Appearances: Hobbs & Shaw

An air marshal Hobbs and Shaw meet in transit.


  • Bunny-Ears Lawyer: He's a wacky fast-talker who neither Hobbs nor Shaw have a lot of patience for. Nevertheless, he is able to get them a secretly-charted flight to Samoa on short notice, so he knows how to do his job.
  • Everybody Knew Already: Both Hobbs and Shaw figured out he was an air marshal before he started talking to them, having done a Sherlock Scan on him when he wasn't looking. At the same time, he also had them respectively clocked as a lawman and a spy.
  • In Harm's Way: He's a former Special Ops soldier, and immensely frustrated at how he's been reduced to sitting on planes for extended periods in case something happens to go off.
  • The Team Wannabe: He really wants to join Hobbs and Shaw, but they're not interested.

    Hattie Shaw 

MI6 Agent Hattie Shaw

Played By: Vanessa Kirby Other Languages

Appearances: Hobbs & Shaw

An MI6 agent who also happens to be part of the infamous Shaw family.


  • Action Girl: Although she gets captured due to the Snowflake virus being inside her, she's more than able to deal with her captors via physical violence. Hobbs easily admits to being impressed by her combat skills.
  • Big Brother Worship: Before Deckard went rogue, Hattie thought the world of him. Not anymore, sadly. Part of their character arcs is repairing their fractured relationship.
  • Distress Ball: Holds this during the climax; she needs to be protected by both Hobbs and Shaw, because she's too weak to fight for herself.
  • Fair Cop: For a given value of 'cop'. After seeing her picture, Sam Hobbs nicknames her 'Pretty spy lady' and Hobbs admits she's a 'more than usually attractive example of the breed.'
  • Only Sane Man: Usually is the one to remind both Hobbs and Shaw that their mission to stop the virus' release is more important than their petty rivalry. Though she occasionally gets roped into doing stuff just as goofy as the former two leads at times.
  • Remember the New Guy?: She was never mentioned nor seen prior to the events of Hobbs & Shaw.
  • White Sheep: The only one of the Shaw children who stayed entirely legit, as an agent for MI6.
