The Fast and Furious 11 director has been set for the final movie in the franchise. Louis Leterrier, who also directed Fast X, will be returning to direct Fast and Furious 11.
Variety’s report doesn’t have much new about the film aside from stating Leterrier’s return. This is somewhat expected, as Fast X is not even out yet. However, Universal Pictures President Peter Cramer complimented Leterrier and his knowledge of the series.
“Louis joined the Fast & Furious team seamlessly, with an innate understanding of the franchise that is stronger than ever after two decades,” said Cramer of the Fast and Furious 11 director. “Under his direction, Fast X is a high-intensity thriller with all the spectacular action, emotion, and twists that the fans have come to expect — and then some. We are thrilled that he will continue to work his magic in the director’s chair.”
Leterrier has directed a few action films in the past, like the first two Transporter movies, 2008’s The Incredible Hulk, and Clash of the Titans. He also replaced Justin Lin for Fast X after Lin stepped down amidst an alleged disagreement with Vin Diesel.
