It's time once again to reach into the back seat and open the valves on the nitrous oxide tanks. Universal Pictures has chosen filmmaker Justin Lin to direct a third "Fast and the Furious" film, telling him to put the pedal to the metal and
begin shooting in the fall. Lin, best known for the 2002 independent feature and Sundance hit "Better Luck Tomorrow," had been attached to a remake of the Korean cult film "Oldboy" but will put that project in neutral. The street-racing sequel transplants the franchise to Japan, where the underground world of racing customized rides will yield the story of Shaun Boswell, an American skilled in the world of illegal street racing. Targeted by local authorities, Boswell escapes to Japan and discovers drift racing — a lightning-fast, gravity-defying pursuit set on intense courses full of hairpin turns and switchbacks. When he loses his first race to a Japanese crime lord, Boswell must figure out a way to pay off his debt to the Japanese mafia. There are no actors currently attached, and series stars Paul Walker and Vin Diesel will not be returning. The movie will screech into theaters on June 16, 2006. ...
