Vin Diesel Directing "Fast and Furious" Prequel
Vin Diesel, starring in next Friday’s Babylon A.D., is directing a 20-minute prequel to Fast and Furious, the fourth installment in the Universal Picture franchise.
Wait…what? A 20-minute prequel? Yep. No word on how it will premiere, but I’m guessing it might be a web-based project. Diesel will star, along with Michelle Rodriguez reprising her role as Letty and Sung Kang returning as Han.
In the Justin Lin-directed Fast and Furious (ok, that’s totally confusing, because it’s almost the same name as THE Fast and THE Furious!), opening June 5, 2009, fugitive ex-con Dom Toretto (Diesel) re-ignites his feud with agent Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker). But when they’re forced to confront a shared enemy, Dom and Brian have to figure out how to trust each other.
