Fast X's Director Teases Danger Could Be On The Cards

There are action franchises, and then there’s the ‘Fast & Furious’ series. For over two decades, millions of people have been kept on the edge of their seats as they want to see what’s next for Dominic and his crew, with so many twists and turns seeing people come and go from the franchise throughout the years.

Sadly, like everything else, all good things must come to an end, with the newest movie acting as the penultimate in it all. Now, ‘Fast X’s director teases danger could be on the cards for old and new faces, but what does it all mean? Thankfully, we don’t have long to wait and find out.

Specific Fast X details are being kept under tight wraps

With the movie only a couple of months away from hitting the big screen, plenty are on the edge of their seats to see what’s about to unfold in ‘Fast X.’ It’s the tenth movie in the franchise, and the action series has always kept us guessing, but we’ll have to wait a little longer before we have any answers. Although we now have the official trailer, the studio wants to keep all those twists and turns close to its chest until ‘Fast X’ is finally here. All we do know is that director Louis Leterrier has stated this film is set to unleash “war” on all the protagonists. For now, fans are guessing that Cipher (played by Charlize Theron) will be one of the most prominent villains in it all, what with her still being on the loose, and that new face Dante (played by Jason Momoa) could throw more than a wrench in the works.

Justin Lin left shortly before shooting was set to begin

Initially, director Justin Lin was supposed to return to the ‘Fast & Furious’ franchise to bring the penultimate movie to life. Having worked on five other films in the series, Lin certainly knew his way around the characters, but “creative differences” saw him walk away a week into principal photography. It wasn’t long before Louis Leterrier was brought in as Lin’s replacement and quickly got to work on creating the latest installment. Thankfully, Leterrier already has some action work under his belt, having previously brought ‘The Incredible Hulk’ to life. Despite the sudden change, it seems the rest of ‘Fast X’s taping went without a hitch.

Fast X will see characters take things to unbelievable levels

With so many movies in the franchise, ‘Fast X’ will have to pull something big out of the bag if it wants to bring something entirely different to life. Still, long-standing fans of the series likely already know how fast allies can change, with the good guys occasionally heading to the dark side and the bad guys teaming up with the good guys. There’s a good chance Dominic and the crew might have to turn on one another, but there’s no telling how far things will go. Still, Louis Letterier has teased that “Alliances will need to be made” and “People are going to need to take sides.”

Plenty of new faces are set to make their debut in Fast X

Jason Momoa is one of the biggest names that’s joining ‘Fast X’ as he’s set to bring one of the newest villains in the series to life. Still, he’s not alone. Momoa will also be joined by Rota Moreno, Alan Ritchson, and Brie Larson when it comes to the newbies. Of course, familiar faces will still be back on our screens, with Jordana Brewster, Ludacris, Tyrese Gibson, and Michelle Rodriguez all back on the cards. In a twist, there’s even a rumor that Gal Gadot could be bringing Gisele Yashar back to the big screen, despite the fact audiences believed the character lost her life in ‘Fast & Furious 6.’

‘Fast X’s director teases danger could be on the cards for the crew, and it seems people can’t wait to see what will come from the war brewing beneath the surface. While we have to wait until May 19 to find out what’s next for the franchise, it gives us plenty of time to catch up on the rest of the series in preparation.
