Vin Diesel, who was born Mark Sinclair, had said on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno in 2009 that their daughter, who also goes by Hania Riley Sinclair, is named after an Iberian princess. Known for his huge online presence, Fallon will brings along with him numerous popular segments, celebrity sketches and musical parodies that fans have grown to love on “Late Night”, including #Hashtags, Thank You Notes and Slow Jam the News. “I believe in you – that you will make an awesome movie”, Diesel read from his phone while on “The Tonight Show.”
My producing partner Neal would love for me to just sign off on a director, but this is too special a franchise, so these matters have to be very carefully handled.
“New York, baby!” Diesel shouted in reply, to cheers from the audience.
Furthermore, the 37-year-old actress said that “Fast and Furious 8” will stay away from “exaggerated explosions and insane plot lines”, as it tries to remain “true to Paul’s wishes”. At this point, we wouldn’t be surprised if the final action scene involves the crew piloting the Space Shuttle off the Brooklyn Bridge or something.
