There’s really only been on constant: Writer Chris Morgan, who has written every Fast movie since 2006’s The Fast & The Furious: Tokyo Drift.
Morgan will be replaced by Daniel Casey. “Fast 9” will be directed by Justin Lin, who helmed four of the “Fast” movies.
As the Fast & Furious franchise has evolved from undercover cop drag race movies into globetrotting, multicultural heist flicks, it has gained and lost cast members and directors.
Vin Diesel is set to return as the star in the project that is slotted for a April 2020 release.
