Vin Diesel’s Sleeveless Shirts in His Movies: A Fan’s Overanalysis [+Fast X Release Date]
As the newest Fast and Furious movie approaches, one fan’s enthusiasm has manifested itself in a unique and analytical way. This person’s investigation? Sleeveless shirts worn by Vin Diesel.
The tenth installment of the Fast and Furious film series, Fast X, stars Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) who is trying to safeguard the family he has created from new adversaries. Alongside Diesel, other familiar actors such as Michelle Rodriguez, Charlize Theron, Jason Statham, and John Cena make appearances. Fresh faces like Brie Larson and Jason Momoa are also featured. The trailer promised viewers more racing, drama and spectacular stunts, as well as Diesel’s signature sleeveless shirt.
A Look Into Who Is Portrayed By Jason Momoa in Fast X?
Vin Diesel’s iconic look of wearing a sleeveless shirt is widely associated with the Fast and Furious series. It has been part of his career for some time. After the trailer of Fast X was revealed with Dom Toretto sporting at least three different sleeveless shirts, Reddit user u/LundgrensFrontKick took the time to compile Diesel’s acting roles and analyzed the effect of his lack of sleeves on the movie’s success. Notable statistics included the fact that Diesel wears a white tank top in eleven of his movies, spending 503 minutes without sleeves onscreen, and he averages 1.95 sleeveless shirts per movie.
u/LundgrensFrontKick created a graph that illustrates the number of sleeveless shirts Diesel has donned in each of his films. Seven films have featured Diesel sans sleeveless shirt, including Saving Private Ryan, Boiler Room, The Pacifier, Find Me Guilty, Babylon A.D., The Last Witch Hunter, and Billy Lyn’s Long Halftime Walk. Conversely, Diesel has worn the highest number of distinctive sleeveless shirts – five – in Strays, xXx: Return of Xander Cage, Bloodshot, and F9: The Fast Saga. Significantly, three of these films are the most recent ones, indicating his penchant for sleeveless shirts continues in his newer films.
The analysis carried out by u/LundgrensFrontKick showed that the two Diesel movies with four sleeveless shirts had the best Tomatometer average, audience score average, IMDB average, and worldwide box office average. However, it is difficult to speculate on how Vin Diesel’s choice of clothing would affect the performance of Fast X, as it is unlikely to make much of a difference. Nevertheless, his lack of sleeves is an essential part of Dom Toretto’s look, so fans may be outraged if Diesel appears in a Fast and Furious movie wearing sleeves.
It’s obvious that Fast X will not be altering Dom’s iconic style, so the inquiry is: will Fast X establish a new benchmark by having Vin Diesel wear the most tank tops? Since it would only call for him to don six, he may be able to set a record for Fast X.
Fast X will be released in cinemas on May 19, 2023.
