Vin Diesel Immortalized With Hand And Footprint Ceremony

Furious 7 star Vin Diesel was honored with a handprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Calif. on Wednesday (April 1).

The actor, 47, proudly posed with longtime love, model Paloma Jiménez, and their son, Vincent, 4½, and daughter Hania, 6½, along with another young family member.

The couple left Pauline, their newborn daughter, at home.

Vin was joined by his Furious 7 costars – including Tyrese Gibson, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez and Ludacris – who also attended the L.A. premiere of the film later that same evening.

At the ceremony, Vin shared a touching tribute to his late costar Paul Walker.

“I believe that Paul is here today,” he shared with the crowd.

Paul’s brothers, Cody Walker and Caleb Walker, were also on hand at the premiere.

“To be honest, I’m a little nervous to see the completed project from an emotional standpoint,” Cody admitted to E! News. “We’ll be watching it for the first time at the world premiere. I know it’s going to be very emotional. So far, from what I’ve heard and seen, I think Paul would be proud.”

He added, “I want this film to be the best one yet—and the most memorable. A lot of people are going to remember Paul by this movie, and I want it to be worthy.”

“It was an absolute roller coaster throughout the entire process—lots of tears, lots of laughs,” Cody recalled. “It’s an experience that I was very hesitant to commit to, but I’m really glad I did. I met a ton of really amazing people and made several life-long friendships.”
