Some news about director James Wan

I was researching director James Wan recently, and, from what I've read about his upcoming projects, he's branching into new genres. For those of you unfamiliar with the young, Malaysian-Australian film director, he has filmed and written macabre hits such as Saw and Insidious, as well as some mediocre flops such as Dead Silence and Death Sentence, as well as directing a commercial for survival horror game Dead Space (similar to crime filmmaker Guy Ritchie's popular Black Ops II commercial from late 2012). He has had several projects announced that never went anywhere, such as Fall Night, a vampire movie based off a graphic novel. Even a neo-noir/action film called X-Ray was announced in 2009, and it never got any more news. He even had a film called Haunts announced for release this year that was never mentioned again. But it appears he's gotten some big work recently. He was signed on to direct an adaptation of the MacGyver series. He also is to begin shooting Fast and the Furious 7 this summer, as he is directing it. A young filmmaker known for work in horror films moving to action blockbusters? Let's see how it works out....
