The shooting of the tenth “Fast and the Furious” had not yet started, because the family began to have problems. The official Twitter account of the movie saga announced that Justin Lin has left the post of director. According to Deadline sources, the director withdrew from the film due to creative differences. Now Universal is looking for a replacement.
Despite his departure, Justin Lin will continue to supervise the project as a producer. In addition, Lin co-wrote the film script with Dan Mazeau.
With Universal’s support, I made the difficult decision to step down as director of Fast and Furious 10 while continuing to produce the project. In 10 years and five movies, we’ve been able to work with the best actors, perform the best stunts, and damn, the best car chases. As the son of Asian immigrants, I am proud to have contributed to the creation of the most diverse franchise in cinema history. I will always be grateful to the amazing cast, crew and studio for their support and for including me in the Fast & Furious family.
Justin Lin’s departure raises many questions. The director directed five parts of “Fast and the Furious”, including “Tokyo Drift”. At the same time, Lin would shoot the final chapters of the franchise: Fast and the Furious 10 and the next two films are planned to be combined into a large-scale trilogy.🚨 A Russian who tried to sell a hacked curling iron was convicted on two criminal articles
