The 53-year-old actor has been a staple in the movies since the first one came out in 2001, which centered on Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker), an undercover cop, who is tasked with discovering the identities of a group of unknown automobile hijackers led by Dominic Toretto (Diesel).
Speaking on Entertainment Weekly‘s podcast this week, Vin revealed that he second guessed the film after he read the initial script.

Vin Diesel is taking on an exciting new project!
The 53-year-old Fast & Furious actor is joining the cast of the new action-comedy Muscle, per Deadline.
Plot details are being kept under wraps and production is expected to shoot later this year.
STXfilms is set to produce the film, which will be directed by F. Gary Gray. Gary previously worked with Vin on 2017’s The Fate of the Furious and has also directed the 2015 movie Straight Outta Compton.
Adam Folgelson, the chairman of STXfilms Motion Picture Group, said in a statement, “There are few directors who can match Gary’s skill with character, comedy and big action, which is why he is one of the most accomplished and in-demand directors working today.”
“Over the years, Vin and I have worked together on a number of hit movies, and it’s a thrill to reteam Vin and Gary after their billion-dollar success on The Fate of the Furious. This will become one of the most eagerly anticipated films on our slate,” he added.
The trailer for the new Fast & Furious movie was released this month and it looks so intense!
Vin Diesel is set to star in a live action movie based on the Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots tabletop game.
Variety reports that Vin‘s production company, One Race Films, will also produce the movie alongside Universal Pictures and Mattel.
The Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots tabletop game featured the battling robots, Red Rocker and Blue Bomber.
“To take the classic Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em game, with Mattel as my partner, and align it with the kind of world-building, franchise-making success we have had with Universal, is truly exciting,” Vin shared in a statement.
While many fans are excited about the news of a new Vin movie, they also pointed out that it’s very similar to 2011′s Real Steel, which starred Hugh Jackman.
“We already got this movie. It’s called Real Steel, and it’s pretty good to,” one fan wrote.
Another added, “Am I going crazy or didnt this movie already happen?? It was called Real Steel? Wolverine was in it? Did I hallucinate an entire movie?”
Mattel is also developing movies based on Uno and their number one seller, Barbie.
The latest saga in the Fast & Furious franchise is nearly upon us!
