The Fast & Furious franchise may last longer than expected!

A few days ago, it was revealed that Universal were looking at Justin Lin to direct the upcoming two part finale to their Fast & Furious franchise. However, that now does not seem to be the case, Universal Pictures chairman Donna Langley has recent spoken to Hollywood Reporter about the future of the franchise;

"We think there's at least three more," says Langley. "...I think it's still a growing franchise. We'll see what happens with 'Furious 7,' obviously, but our box office has grown over the past three or four films and internationally, in particular. So we think that there's more to mine there. But we're of course very mindful about fatigue."
