Dave Bautista passed on the opportunity to join the Fast & Furious franchise, but had he accepted, we would have gotten a crossover that had been years in the making. Fast & Furious‘ lively and chaotic universe looked like a great fit for the actor, as Dave Bautista’s best action movies suggest he could fit in effortlessly, but he ultimately rejected the chance to join the iconic saga. Having been part of popular franchises like the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Dune, Bautista is no stranger to huge blockbuster action, but he is just as enthusiastic about working with lesser-known IPs.
