Fast X, a.k.a. Fast & Furious 10, only just started filming last week, but already the production has hit a major snag. It was announced yesterday that Justin Lin will no longer be directing the upcoming movie, which was supposed to be his sixth Fast & Furious movie. The search is underway to find a new Fast X director, but apparently Lin dropping the directorial reins could end up costing Universal Pictures a lot of money.
Following Justin Lin’s exit from Fast X (reportedly due to “creative differences,” although the split has also been described as “amicable”), the movie’s second unit team is continuing production in the United Kingdom, but the main unit is on pause until a new director comes aboard. According to sources who spoke with Variety, Universal Pictures having to replace the Fast X director in the midst of principal photography could end up costing the studio “upwards of $600,000 to $1 million a day.” Exactly how much will depend on if production on any major set pieces was already underway. Because Lin left Fast X so early into the shoot, that may have resulted in this not being as pricey as it could have been had he left later on down the road… pun slightly intended.
