Vin Diesel’s Latest Fast X Announcement Has An Oscar-Winner ‘Tickled’ To Be Playing Dom’s Grandmother
The cast of Fast X doesn’t seem to be content to leave any major star out on the action. Concluding the Fast Saga, one of 2023’s upcoming movies is the beginning of the end for Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto and his family. Which means it’s the perfect time to introduce Dom’s grandmother into the mix, and Oscar-winner Rita Moreno is the lucky woman who feels “tickled” to be cast in such an important role.
Celebrating the sixth week of production on Fast X, Vin Diesel hopped onto Instagram and made a video with his brand new on screen family member. The West Side Story star’s enthusiasm for her new gig is radiant, as you can see for yourself in the video below:
Proclaiming it’s been a dream of his to work with Rita Moreno, Diesel breaks this news at a pretty exciting time. This latest addition to the Fast X roster comes just days after franchise vet Scott Eastwood was announced as returning to the Fast Saga fray. They really can’t stop adding talent to the deck, which also includes Jason Momoa and Brie Larson, among others.
Fast X is set to motor into theaters on May 19, 2023. For those of you who happen to be HBO Max subscribers, you can revisit the Toretto family legacy’s most recent expansion in F9; which is streaming in that specific library at the time of this writing.
More to come…
