Fast X will keep it all in the family when the high-octane sequel races into theaters. In an Instagram post on Thursday, Paul Walker’s daughter, Meadow Walker, revealed she’ll have a cameo in the upcoming film. The image shows the 24-year-old model on an airplane with her head turned to look at the camera. She’s wearing a blue blazer over a blue collared shirt. Could she be playing a flight attendant on the plane?
Walker is thrilled to be a part of Fast X, saying she’s always been a part of the Fast family from the early age of one.
“A preview of my cameo in Fast X. The first fast was released when I was one year old! I grew up on set watching my father, Vin, Jordana, Michelle, Chris, and more on the monitors,” Meadow wrote on Instagram. “Thanks to my dad, I was born into the fast family. I can’t believe now I get to be up there too. With those who have been around to see me grow up. Thank you, @louisleterrierpro, for your kindness, patience, and support. It feels like you’ve been part of the family since we started. I’m happy it’s just the beginning. Special shoutout to my dad’s best friend, who is now my best friend @bbirtell, this wouldn’t have been possible without you. I am so blessed to be able to honor my father’s legacy and share this with him forever x I love you all so much.”
What does Meadow Walker mean by “it’s just the beginning?” Could she play a more significant role than we think? Will her character somehow return in the final Fast & Furious film?
Fast X stars Vin Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Nathalie Emmanuel, Jordana Brewster, Sung Kang, Jason Statham, John Cena, Scott Eastwood, Helen, Mirren, and Charlize Theron. The cast has expanded even more with the addition of Brie Larson as Tess, a rogue representative from the Agency; Alan Ritchson as Aimes, the new head of the agency who doesn’t hold the same fondness for Dom’s crew as his predecessor; Daniela Melchior as a Brazilian street racer with a powerful tie to Dom’s past; and Rita Moreno as Dom and Mia’s Abuelita Toretto.
“Over many missions and against impossible odds, Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his family have outsmarted, out-nerved and outdriven every foe in their path. Now, they confront the most lethal opponent they’ve ever faced: A terrifying threat emerging from the shadows of the past who’s fueled by blood revenge, and who is determined to shatter this family and destroy everything—and everyone—that Dom loves, forever,” reads the official Fast X description. “In 2011’s Fast Five, Dom and his crew took out nefarious Brazilian drug kingpin Hernan Reyes and decapitated his empire on a bridge in Rio De Janeiro. What they didn’t know was that Reyes’ son, Dante, witnessed it all and has spent the last 12 years masterminding a plan to make Dom pay the ultimate price. Dante’s plot will scatter Dom’s family from Los Angeles to the catacombs of Rome, from Brazil to London and from Portugal to Antarctica. New allies will be forged and old enemies will resurface. But everything changes when Dom discovers that his own 8-year-old son is the ultimate target of Dante’s vengeance.” Fast X will hit theaters on May 19th. Cue the two-year wait to see how the whole saga plays out with the release of Fast X – Part 2 in 2025.
