James Wan, the director of Saw, Insidious and Insidious Chapter 2, is Universal's choice to replace Justin Lin in the director's chair for Fast & Furious 7. Now this is quite a step from the horror genre that Wan is accustomed to, but I think he'll do just fine.
Universal Pictures has begun negotiations with James Wan to direct the seventh installment of the studio’s mega-buck franchise The Fast And The Furious. I expect a deal to be made probably before the week is out.Source: Deadline
