Production for the tenth “Fast & Furious” movie took an unexpected turn, as Justin Lin is stepping down as director.
Lin, who has directed five films in the cars-and-crime franchise, will remain with “Fast X” as a producer, he said in an announcement Tuesday.
“Over 10 years and five films, we have been able to shoot the best actors, the best stunts, and the best damn car chases,” Lin said in a statement. “On a personal note, as a child of Asian immigrants, I am proud of helping to build the most diverse franchise in movie history.”
