Brian C. WoodHOST
And his career has been downhill since then.
Brian C. WoodHOST
Justin Lin has tied his career to the Fast and the Furious movies.
Brian C. WoodHOST
Has worked with them closer than most.
Brian C. WoodHOST
And even he was like, go to hell, Vin.
Chad MetzHOST
It's not like... a six-year break between movies because you're farting around or nothing.
Chad MetzHOST
I'm just saying.
Brian C. WoodHOST
So, I mean, if you start to really think about it, Justin Lin did a lot of them.
Brian C. WoodHOST
What's her name of our dude who did Aquaman?
NickHOST
They usually have the scoop, but they want this movie to come out sometime next year.
NickHOST
Justin Lin is directing, Sony's producing.
NickHOST
We'll see, though, ultimately, if it comes out.
NickHOST
The Last of Us director has dropped the gauntlet, so to say, calling out AAA games as of late, especially calling out the gameplay of Le Fay, God of War Le Fay, boring.
Lisa LamanPANELIST
Actually, the other you said that a lot.
Lisa LamanPANELIST
I realize that with him and with Justin Lin directing, this is them being able to finally do Fast X together, I guess, because.
Lisa LamanPANELIST
Oh, my God.
Lisa LamanPANELIST
Because he was cast in that before Lin left.
John RochaHOST
I can't remember.
John RochaHOST
I think Justin Lin or somebody just signed a deal with Paramount Plus as well.
John RochaHOST
So you've got people of color who are coming in and black people coming in to do their stuff.
John RochaHOST
So there will be places for that.
Sean ChandlerGUEST
Yeah, I mean, I've kind of assumed for a while that Vin Diesel is the person with all the power on the set of these movies.
Sean ChandlerGUEST
And he's been weird with the directors for a while where Justin Lin was hired for Fast X.
Sean ChandlerGUEST
And Vin Diesel was posting videos on social media for the first week.
Sean ChandlerGUEST
And you would look at them and the director looked like he was dying.
Don MegaHOST
Alan Richson is in talks to star in the live-action Helldivers movie.
Don MegaHOST
Remember, Justin Lin is directing this.
Don MegaHOST
It was going to star Jason Momoa, but then Jason Momoa had scheduling conflicts, in quotes.
Don MegaHOST
I don't know what happened there, but he had to drop out.
JonathanHOST
I've since seen them and very familiar with them now.
JonathanHOST
But what I think is interesting is how Justin Lin, the director, made this into a continuity when it was probably conceived as a standalone movie.
JonathanHOST
But Jeff, I got to know, this is your first time watching it.
JonathanHOST
Like, what did you think overall?
12 MINS LATER
Jordana BrewsterSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Han.
JonathanHOST
And he actually has a couple different names, one being Han Solo, which is his, I think, street name, which is sort of a pun, obviously, on the Star Wars character.
JonathanHOST
But his actual character name is Han Luu, which goes all the way back to a movie Justin Lin created, Better Luck Tomorrow, one of his very first movies, which then makes that actually part of the Fast and Furious franchise.
JonathanHOST
I've never actually seen that movie, but I'm much more curious now to check it out.
AaronHOST
So it is Fast 6 technically.
AaronHOST
When Justin Lin was making it, he called it Furious 6.
AaronHOST
And in the actual movie, in the movie itself, it says Furious 6.
AaronHOST
And then they're like, well, I guess we call it Furious 7.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
It's just, they follow inside, they spin around and they follow down the hallway.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
I'm like, this is so much flair, more flair than like anything Rob Cohen or John Singleton had done, or, you know, Justin Lin had done the first 43 minutes of this movie.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
Like, this is like, Pardon me.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
This is film.
Joe TwoHOST
It's fun camera work.
Joe TwoHOST
We're going to keep going down this hallway and stuff, too.
Joe TwoHOST
Good to point it out that I think Justin Lin is a student of film.
Joey LewandowskiHOST
I mean, this feels like, you know, we had talked about, I think probably when we did Better Luck Tomorrow, that he did Better Luck Tomorrow, which is a small, he did other movies, but like this feels like the first one where it's like a big ass budget where it's just like, oh, I have money to like flex a little bit here.
TomHOST
And then just some quick stories here.
TomHOST
So first with actors, sounds like Alan Richardson is in talks to step into the lead of Justin Lin's Helldivers movie that's going to be coming out following Jason Momoa's exit earlier this year.
TomHOST
Actress Sadie Soverell has exited the lead role in Brady Corbett's The Origin of the World during production.
TomHOST
So this is Brady's upcoming film.
