In her heartfelt post, accompanied by a camera shot of herself, the 24-year-old revealed that she was just a baby when the first Fast and Furious film premiered in 2001. As her father continued to work on the subsequent sequels, she grew up watching him alongside his co-stars, including Vin Diesel, Jordan Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez, Chris Bridges, and others, closely monitoring their performances on set. Now, with her own cameo in ‘Fast X,’ Thorton-Allan continues the cherished bond she shared with her father while paying homage to the franchise that has been a significant part of their lives.

“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. Thanks to my dad, I was born into the fast family. I can’t believe now I get to be up there too.”
