Michelle Rodriguez praises the 'energy of love' 'Fast X' director, Louis Leterrier, brings to the film franchise.
The Fast & Furious franchise was stunned when longtime director Justin Lin departed the family suddenly following disputes with series star Vin Diesel. Filling the hole he left was going to be no small task considering Lin helmed five films in the franchise starting with The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and helped usher the series into its status as a Hollywood tentpole.
Leterrier is no stranger to directing high-octane action flicks or blockbusters. In the 2000s, he sat behind the camera for the Jason Statham-led The Transporter as well as the box office hit The Incredible Hulk which featured Edward Norton in the lead role before Mark Ruffalo emerged as the superhero in the MCU.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Rodriguez admitted that, at first, without the familiar presence of Lin, the team behind the film felt a bit lost. Once Leterrier stepped in, however, new life was breathed into the production with the actress saying of him: He came with all this energy of love. We haven’t had that in Fast and Furious for a very long time where we get somebody excited who’s a real fan and who really wants to take it places that it hasn’t gone before. We’ve been at it for 20 years, bro. After all that time, you get jaded and kind of forget what you do it for [until] a director like Louis comes in and reminds you, ‘This is beautiful. Let’s go make magic.’ We’re so lucky to have him bro.
Fast X features the return of Diesel and Rodriguez as well as Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Sung Kang, Scott Eastwood, and Charlize Theron with Cardi B and Michael Rooker set to reappear after their franchise debuts in Fast 9. Jumping in the car for the first time will be Jason Momoa, Brie Larson, Rita Moreno, Alan Ritchson, and Daniela Melchior.
