Fast X director Louis Leterrier says he approached Vin Diesel’s final Fast and Furious movies and sequels like his TV work. Here’s how he did it.
Few movies outside of the superhero sphere involve ensemble casts as big as the Fast and Furious movies, and Fast X is the biggest of all of them. With tons of characters, several storylines, and practically every sequence happening in a different place around the world, the 10th Fast and Furious movie was a mess to coordinate. Breaking things down required an unusual approach from director Louis Leterrier.
In an interview with Polygon, Leterrier, who directed every episode of Netflix’s The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance series, explained that he actually approached Fast X (both Part One and Part Two) more like the way he would run a TV show than the way he would direct a normal movie.
