Internationally, the film is already slated to have the No. 2 global opening of the year behind Nintendo’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie. Fast X was directed by Louis Leterrier and stars franchise staples like Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Sung Kang, Jason Statham, Helen Mirren, Scott Eastwood, Nathalie Emmanuel, and Charlize Theron. Jasom Momoa joined the cast as the titular villain. The film is now available in theaters.
