Michelle Rodriguez offers an update on the production of Fast X. Fast X is the tenth installment of the Fast & Furious franchise, which has been running since 2001. Since that time, the series has grown from its simple racing roots, embracing bedlam to offer up intense action spectacles. Each film has been more significant than the last, with the stunts becoming increasingly more absurd. Still, audiences have been more than happy to take the ride, with the franchise becoming the eighth highest-grossing film series of all time, with over $6 billion in revenue.
Fast X has also assembled a massive cast of unique talent, as many franchise regulars are returning, with Vin Diesel, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Ludacris, and Rodriguez. However, the film is also adding quite the roster of new talent with the addition of Brie Larson, Jason Momoa, Alan Ritchson, Rita Moreno, and Daniela Melchior. Fast X has suffered some production delays following the exit of director Justin Lin shortly after shooting got underway, though Lin has since been replaced with The Incredible Hulk's Louis Leterrier, and filming has resumed.
