Fast And Furious icon Paul Walker will finally receive his own star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame in 2023, 10 years after his tragic death.
Walker played Brian O'Conner in the Fast And Furious franchise from the very beginning, starring in 2001's The Fast And The Furious. Although Walker died in a car crash in 2013, previously shot scenes and some heavy editing meant that his final "full" appearance came in 2015's Furious 7.
Walker is to be one of three posthumous stars to be honored, alongside Academy Award-nominated actor Juanita Moore, and singer Jenni Rivera.

“The panel thoughtfully selected these talented individuals, and we can’t wait to celebrate them as they become part of Hollywood’s history with the unveiling of their star on the world’s most famous walkway,” Ellen K, Chair of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce’s Walk Of Fame selection panel, said in a statement.
Ludacris, who worked with Walker on 2 Fast 2 Furious, Fast Five, Furious 6 and Fast & Furious 7, is also set to receive a star next year.
“Hey Momma, Your Son Is Being Selected To Receive a STAR on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame In 2023. GOD IS THE GREATEST,” the actor tweeted in response to the news.
Other Fast And Furious stars who already have their own space on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame include Charlize Theron, Kurt Russel, Dwayne Johnson, and Vin Diesel.
