At the Cannes Film Festival, Vin Diesel celebrated the 25th anniversary of 'The Fast and the Furious' by honoring his late co-star Paul Walker. Diesel, who wore a jacket with 'Fast Forever' emblazoned on it, became emotional while recalling their brotherly bond. He shared a heartfelt hug with Meadow Walker, Paul’s daughter, expressing his gratitude for her presence. Diesel stated, 'I pray that in your life you have a brother like Paul,' highlighting the deep connection they shared. After the screening, he addressed the audience, thanking them for their loyalty and support, which motivates the franchise to continue, with the next film, 'Fast Forever', scheduled for release on March 17, 2028. Paul Walker passed away in a tragic car accident in California on November 30, 2013, at the age of 40. Since then, Diesel has maintained a close relationship with Walker's family, even walking Meadow down the aisle at her wedding in 2021.
