Quote of the day:

"The basic tool for the manipulation of reality is the manipulation of words. If you can control the meaning of words, you can control the people who must use the words." -- Philip K. Dick (1928-1982)

Release Date: Unknown; that will depend upon when production starts, and that will depend upon when a script is approved, and cast available; Universal will probably want to get Vin Diesel to return, and given his busy schedule, that suggests the earliest this could be released is 2003; maybe 2004

Director: Not announced yet; it's unknown if Rob Cohen will return to helm the sequel. His next project, Triple X, will reunite him with Vin Diesel.

Screenwriter: Gary Scott Thompson (1992's Split Second, K-911; cowriter of The Fast and the Furious)

Based upon: This will be the sequel to the 2001 surprise hit movie, The Fast & the Furious, which as of 7/14/01, has brought in over $110 million in the USA, and is likely to end up with around $150 million, for a global total of probably double that... on a budget of under $40 million.

Title Note: There's no word yet (7/14/01) what the title of this title might be. Keep in mind that the first film went through several titles (Racer X, Redline, and Street Wars) before TF&TF.; Here's hoping they go with something like The Faster and the More Furious (or even better, The Fastest..., etc.).

Premise: (7/14/01) No details have been announced yet about this film, but if you saw the ending of the first film, you probably have your own questions about "what happens next", and presumably, this sequel would address them (which would require the return of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker's characters, at least). The first film dealt with a gang of street racers who highjacked semi's to fund their need for speed, so they're the most likely focus for this sequel as well (depending, as I say above, upon the cast).

Filming: There is no production start date for this project. Vin Diesel, for example, has a full plate, with plenty to work on until at least mid-2002, so I would guess that's the earliest filming could start (presuming the script and cast are ready).
