A big update coming in for all fans and admirers of ‘Fast and Furious’ franchise.

In a shocking turn of events, Fast and Furious franchise director Justin Lin has stepped down from the next movie just days after the shoot begun. He took to social media to share an emotional note for fans and was quoted as saying,

“With the support of Universal, I have made the difficult decision to step back as director of ‘Fast X,’ while remaining with the project as a producer. Over 10 years and five films, we have been able to shoot the best actors, the best stunts, and the best damn car chases. On a personal note, as the child of Asian immigrants, I am proud of helping to build the most diverse franchise in movie history. I will forever be grateful to the amazing cast, crew and studio for their support, and for welcoming me into the ‘Fast’ family.”
