Justin Lin, who was featured on the cover of the Winter 2003 issue of Filmmaker for his debut feature Better Luck Tomorrow, has been tapped to direct Universal Pictures' The Fast and Furious 3.

As reported in Variety, "None of the stars of the original two films will return, making this the rare third installment of a hit franchise where the only gross player is the producer, Neil Moritz."

Lin recently directed Annapolis, currently in postproduction, for Touchstone. He is also attached to direct a remake of the Korean film Old Boy for Universal and Vertigo Entertainment. (Tartan Asia Extreme will release the DVD of Park Chan-wook's Old Boy on August 23.)
