As a gamer with a soft spot for movies, I’ve seen my fair share of blockbusters, but none quite like the Fast & Furious franchise. And among them all, Tokyo Drift stands out as a unique gem.
The “Fast & Furious” film series has amassed billions globally and ranks among today’s most cherished movie collections. These films enjoy such universal adoration that esteemed director Christopher Nolan openly expresses his affection for them. However, it’s not just that Nolan appreciates the “Fast & Furious” movies; he holds a particular fondness for the initially disliked film, “Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift”.
It’s well-known that Christopher Nolan openly expresses his fondness for the Fast & Furious series, with a special appreciation for Tokyo Drift. Chris Morgan, the screenwriter behind Tokyo Drift, continued to pen most of the subsequent films in the franchise. When The Hollywood Reporter asked Morgan about Nolan’s sentiments, he expressed delight and confirmed that they have recently discussed the movie further. Morgan elaborated…
It’s hardly surprising, given his stature as one of humanity’s most exceptional filmmakers, that he admires my movie. In fact, I’ve had the privilege of discussing it with him after our initial encounter. The joy I feel knowing that others share our long-held appreciation for it is indescribable.
It would have been fascinating to eavesdrop on the discussion between Chris Morgan and Christopher Nolan regarding ‘Tokyo Drift’. One can speculate about what they discussed, given how much appreciation this movie has garnered over time compared to its initial reception.
The film “Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift” has indeed traveled quite a distance from its origins. Although it didn’t bomb at the box office, it was unique in the franchise as it didn’t feature Paul Walker or Vin Diesel in leading roles. Instead, it stood alone within the series, borrowing concepts but tying into the main storyline through subtle references and a brief appearance by Vin Diesel at the film’s conclusion.
In contrast, it’s worth noting that “Tokyo Drift” might be considered as having a pivotal role within the entire series. It introduced the character of Han, portrayed by Sung Kang, and significantly, it ended with the demise of Han’s character. This decisive event has since become a crucial aspect of the franchise, shaping its narrative.
currently uncertain what the next steps are for the Fast & Furious series. We do know that at least one more film, a follow-up to Fast X, is in the works. There’s also speculation about another movie featuring Dwayne Johnson and potential projects related to the Hobbs & Shaw spinoff. Additionally, there’s talk of a female-led Fast & Furious spinoff on the horizon. Regardless, renowned director Christopher Nolan will likely be keeping an eye on developments.
