Watch The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift

The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, the third film in Universal's street racing franchise, is revving up for a June 16th release. We've got an exclusive video from the forthcoming flick featuring interviews with cast members Lucas Black (Friday Night Lights, Jarhead), Bow Wow (Roll Bounce)and Nathalie Kelly as well as director Justin Lin (Better Luck Tomorrow). There's also video of the flick's stunt drivers (and drift racers) Tanner Foust and Rhys Millen. Here's the setup: The action centers around Black's character, Sean Boswell, who has always been a gaijin -- an outsider. He's a loner at school, and his only connection to the indifferent world around him is through illegal street racing - which has made him particularly unpopular with the local authorities. To avoid jail time, Sean is sent out of the country to live with his military father in a cramped apartment in a low-rent section of Tokyo.

In the land that gave birth to the majority of modified racers on the road, the simple street race has been replaced by the ultimate pedal-to-the-metal, gravity-defying automotive challenge -- drift racing, a deadly combination of brutal speed on heart-stopping courses with hairpin turns and switchbacks. In his first unsuccessful foray into the world of drift racing, Sean unknowingly takes on D.K., the "Drift King," with ties to the Yakuza, the Japanese crime machine. The only way Sean can pay off the debt from his loss is to venture into the deadly realm of the Tokyo underworld, where the stakes are life and death.
