Vin Diesel Shares Emotional Moment With Late Paul Walker’s Daughter Meadow at ‘Fast and the Furious’ Screening

Vin Diesel recently shard an emotional moment with Paul Walker‘s daughter, Meadow Walker, at a screening of The Fast and the Furious at the Cannes Film Festival.

On Wednesday, May 13, a special screening of the film was held to mark the 25th anniversary of the franchise in Cannes, France. Jordana Brewster (Mia Toretto) and Michelle Rodriguez (Letty Ortiz) attended the event, in addition to Diesel (Dominic “Dom” Toretto) and Meadow.

Ahead of the screening, Diesel pointed out that Meadow, 27, was present to represent her late father — who starred as Brian O’Conner in the first seven Fast and the Furious films. Tragically, Paul died at 40 in a 2013 car crash.

“The person who was not going to let me come alone here to represent that brotherhood was Meadow Walker,” Diesel told attendees, who offered an enthusiastic round of applause, as seen in a video People posted on Instagram. “I’m gonna go and shed a tear real quick.”
