Vin Diesel has questioned getting his Hollywood Walk of Fame handprints on April Fools' Day.
The Hollywood hardman has made a name for himself in cinema thanks to the Fast & Furious, Riddick and xXx franchises.
But tomorrow it won't just be his name cemented in the industry, but his hand and footprints too.
"It definitely crossed my mind. Why April first?" Vin laughed to Jimmy Kimmel.
"[My family will be coming] my mother, my father, my twin brother. Twin Diesel, officially. He just flew in from New York.
"I heard the shoes get ruined. I've never seen it before; it's all new to me."
Instead of throwing a celebration party after he receives the honour at the famous TCL Chinese Theatre, Vin will head to the premiere of Fast & Furious 7 in LA.
The movie marks Paul Walker's last screen outing, after the star tragically died in November 2013 following a car crash at the age of 40.
Vin has spoken extensively about his love and admiration for his late co-star and even called his baby daughter, who was born earlier this month, Pauline. However during his appearance on Jimmy's show, the 47-year-old kept the mood more upbeat.
"[Being bald] it's kind of a requirement, it's in the contract. It's a sea of bald heads. We were thinking of calling this the Bronx baldies," he laughed about the numerous shaved-headed actors who appear in the Fast & Furious movies.
He also teased fans that this may not be the end of the franchise.
"I'll tell you something about Kurt Russell, he was... you know I always think of these films, multiple pictures in advance, I think of them as trilogies. So Kurt Russell came into this movie but he was really hired because of a story that follows this and takes place in New York. It's some cool stuff that not everybody knows," he revealed.
