LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Universal Pictures' successful and eagerly anticipated action film, 'Fast X', also known as 'Fast & Furious 10', is set to hit theaters. It was revealed that 'Fast X' could be the franchise's final chapter, but it is split into two parts.

Justin Lin, who directed all of the franchise's films between 'The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift' and 'Fast & Furious 6', as well as 'F9', was slated to direct 'Fast X', but he dropped out due to disagreements with Vin Diesel. Louis Leterrier, a French filmmaker, was recruited to direct the film. Lin, Zach Dean and Dan Mazeau wrote the screenplay, and Lin, Diesel, Neal H Moritz, Jeff Kirschenbaum and Samantha Vincent will produce the film.
