Vin Diesel seemed a
little starstruck on Wednesday as he shared a photo of Hollywood legend
Kurt Russell on the set of Fast & Furious 7.
The
46-year-old Diesel stood in the middle of the scene looking at original
Fast & Furious cast member Paul Walker as newcomer Russell watched.
'Kurt Russell, such an honor to work with...,' Vin said on his Facebook page that has more than 47.8 million likes.

of Fast & Furious 7
The scene was set in a garage,
but Walker, Diesel and Russell were all rather well dressed in white
dress shirts and business coats.
The seventh installment of the Fast & Furious franchise follows the successful release of Fast & Furious 6 in May.
The sixth cars and criminals film
starring Diesel, Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Gina Carano
and Tyrese Gibson has grossed more than $780million worldwide since its
release.
New addition: Kurt, shown in earlier this month
in Canada, joins original Fast And Furious stars Vin and Paul for the
seventh installment in the franchise
Studio executives believed the
movie tapped into a huge worldwide Hispanic box office with its casting
of Rodriguez, Carano and John Ortiz.
The
seventh installment is being directed by James Wan, whose previous
credits include the horror film Insidious and its recently released
sequel Insidious Chapter 2.
Wan also was the director of the 2004 horror film Saw.
Back for more: Vin, shown in August at the Riddick premiere in Los Angeles, returns as Dominic Toretto
Switching allegiances: Paul, shown in May at the Fast & Furious 6 premiere in London, returns as Brian O'Conner
The 62-year-old Russell has
spotted in New York City on Wednesday with his longtime partner Goldie
Hawn, 67, at an event honouring The Hawn Foundation created by his wife.
Fast & Furious 7 is due out in July 2014. It won't be the first car movie in Russell's 50-year Hollywood career.
Russell
starred in the 1980 comedy Used Cars as a sly car salesman and was in
the 2007 slasher film Death Proof in which he portrayed a stuntman who
staged deadly car accidents in his death-proof stunt car.
