SEEKING MALE ACTORS (any ethnicity)
Feature Film

Distributed by Universal Pictures

and Amanda Cohen

To Begin Filming in Tokyo and LA on September 12, 2005

Finn Hiller Casting (Crash, Coach Carter) is seeking male actors of any ethnicity for the lead in the Universal Pictures feature film, “Fast and Furious 3: Tokyo.” The film is about an obsessive street racer named SHAUN who is exiled to Tokyo after annoying the local police once too often.

SHAUN is treated like an outsider and mocked for being a gai-jin, He is drawn to the subculture of drift racing, a dangerous and sometimes deadly sport that he masters with startling speed. In the process, Shaun makes a deadly enemy and meets the love of his life, Tani.

TANI is a stunning Japanese girl who attends the same school as Shaun in Tokyo. When they interact at first, she dismisses him until she realizes that he is an obsessive street racer as well. Chaos arises when Shaun finds out that she is in fact D.K.’s girlfriend (the “Drift King” of Tokyo). Shaun enrages D.K. by challenging him to a drift race, while at the same time forming a friendship with Tani, which eventually evolves into a forbidden romance.

REEVISE (A.K.A TWINKIE) is a fellow classmate of Shaun, who is the first to befriend him in Tokyo. He too is car-crazy and drives a Nissan S15 Silvia. Initially Shaun is rude to Reevise, claiming “he doesn’t need friends”, but soon they develop a friendship as Reevise tutors Shaun on Japanese culture as well drift racing.

oh boy....can't wait!

I wonder if they know how much most drifters hate what they are doing? I mean, I'm sure it wouldn't change their minds because of all the $$ involved. But, I just wonder if they know. From the description it sounds like drifting is gonna get all gang realted and have a bad image just like drag racing. One thing I know is that if I go to see the movie I'm driving my wife's car

More like one more year until drifting is put into the same category as street racing.

[nismocoupe]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

someone needs to steal all the footage of the movie once its done and burn it. THIS MOVIE CANNOT SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY

[Clifford]

Cool, the price of my 240 will skyrocket haha. Sure everyone knew it was going to happen, it was just a matter of time. And of course something will happen when a new law will be passed where as if you drift you can get your car impounded or some bs like that....

[Jonas]

[Silvia_San]

omg jonas do it. try out for twinkie. you know you are.

[dudocius240sx]

1. the price of our cars is going to sky rocket as it will also become more stolen.
2. Evan (funk) should try out for the part of Tani. lol.
3. this movie sucks ass, is bad enough with the amount of people you have drifting on the street giving us a bad wrap.

4. After getting waxed from a light, "my car is setup for drift" will become a valid excuse.
