The Fast And Furious family gets Justin Lin back but loses longtime writer Chris Morgan
The Fast And Furious movie series is on the verge of a major expansion, having risen from the ashes of #CandyAssGate as a stronger entity that is somehow even more focused on the importance of family. The series will soon be getting an animated Netflix series, the spin-off starring Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham, and another numbered sequel, but thankfully Fast And Furious is getting a proven shepherd back to ensure that it retains its all-important heart and soul. As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, prodigal son Justin Lin is returning to the series with Fast And Furious 9, having directed four of the previous movies before sitting out Furious 7 and Fate Of The Furious. As THR notes, Lin is the man credited with turning a Point Break ripoff into the ultimate action franchise, so this should be a good sign.
