Fast X: Vin Diesel’s lack of professionalism to blame for Justin Lin’s departure?

Vin Diesel is an actor and producer from the United States. He is most known for playing Dominic Toretto in the Fast & Furious franchise and is one of the world’s highest-grossing performers.

Justin Lin’s departure from Fast X could have been influenced by Vin Diesel. It was only a few days ago that the director, who has directed five Fast & Furious films, abruptly walked out of Fast & Furious 10. What was even more unexpected was that the decision was made just as production on the next installment was about to begin.

On Instagram, Diesel revealed the film’s new title as well as the fact that filming had commenced. Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, and Charlize Theron will all appear in the tenth instalment. Brie Larson, Jason Momoa, and Daniela Melchior are among the newcomers.

Meanwhile, according to a fresh story, Justin Lin’s departure may have something to do with Vin Diesel. Lin may have departed because Diesel is “so demanding,” according to the NY Daily News. It was previously reported that the Fast X filmmaker left due to “creative issues.” “Diesel arrives late to the shoot. He doesn’t know what he’s saying. And he shows up out of shape,” according to the article.

If this is true, it isn’t the first time someone has departed the Fast and Furious franchise due to issues with the cast’s lack of professionalism. We’re talking about Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson’s famed feud, which resulted in the latter leaving the film and launching the Hobbs & Shaw spin-off.

Vin Diesel calls for Mia Toretto return

Vin Diesel is an actor and producer from the United States. He is most known for playing Dominic Toretto in the Fast & Furious franchise and is one of the world’s highest-grossing performers.

FAST X is the tenth film in the Fast and Furious franchise. But, according to Vin Diesel, the original script didn’t include Mia Toretto. He also revealed his plans to continue the story of Paul Walker’s Brian O’Conner, before wishing he could “turn back time” and save Walker’s life.

The Fast and Furious franchise’s fate is sealed. After the release of Fast and Furious 9, Vin Diesel announced the series would end after Fast and Furious 10 and 11. Earlier this month, he revealed the tenth film’s title would be Fast X. He also revealed this week that Mia Toretto wasn’t originally in the script.

A post shared by Vin Diesel (@vindiesel)

Vin Diesel wrote on his Instagram, “Yes, Your opinion has always mattered. When the F10 script came in, it excluded Mia Toretto…. Someone whom I’ve attributed the brotherhood of Dom and Brian to… I was so disappointed that I couldn’t see how I could continue… After all, I wasn’t going to make another Fast unless Brian was back in Four… I don’t need to remind you of the petitions you sent the studio for Letty’s return at the the end of FIve. Side note, you will never believe who corrected the very important role of Mia… my daughter, the Alpha Angel, who told the director very plainly and honestly “NO MIA NO FAST 10!” haha. The irony, is that the day she was born I was filming with Jordanna and Pablo and it was Jordanna who I first told… profound right?”

“There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t want to turn back time, talk Pablo out of heading back to LA that thanksgiving weekend… every Fast film I make must at the core always honor my brother Pablo. In the real world, I will always look after his family, because in the real world he is family. When his daughter asked me to walk her down the isle… I tear up, and then do it with pride and and honor… when his mother asks me to bring Brian back to the screen… well, I don’t have to tell you how serious I take that.”

“Fast could never have been here without the profound love and brotherhood between Dom and Brian, established in 2001. Yeah, I am talking too much, but damn, life is short and your comment touched me and hit a cord. Thank you for believing in me, in us… I won’t rest until I make you, him… and the universe proud. All love, Always.”
