Louis Letterier is set to direct, replacing Justin Lin, who departed the project over creative differences but remained on as a producer. “Reacher” breakout star Alan Ritchson recently joined the cast.

Star Vin Diesel also previously revealed that Brie Larson and Jason Momoa were both set to join the “Fast” family for the new film.

They’ll also all be joined by a returning cast that includes such names as Charlize Theron, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, Tyrese Gibson, Sung Kang, Ludacris and more.One actor who won’t be in “Fast X” is Dwayne Johnson, who made his lack of presence official last summer. “I wish them well on ‘Fast 9,’” the actor said. “And I wish them the best of luck on Fast 10 and Fast 11 and the rest of the ‘Fast & Furious’ movies they do that will be without me.” Johnson further resisted a public plea by Diesel later last year for him to reprise his role as Hobbs in the planned final installments in the franchise.Rita Moreno most recently starred in Steven Spielberg’s remake of “West Side Story,” which happened to win an Oscar for the actress who took over her role from the original film as Anita, Ariana DeBose.
