Height, weight, age. How old is Vin Diesel
Height, weight, age, how old Vin Diesel is asked from a boy to a mature woman, having watched the movie “Fast and Furious” at least once, where a muscular handsome man drives most of the female half crazy. Vin Diesel is fifty-one years old and with a height of 180 cm weighs 85 kg. The photos in his youth and now are so different that you won’t immediately understand that this is the same person.
Previously, the actor was of a thin build and had a terrible complex, so he took up professional sports and changed his hairstyle, shaving his hair bald. But this way he became even more attractive and brutal.
Biography of Vin Diesel
The actor's real name is Mark Sinclair. The biography of Vin Diesel began on July 18, 1967, when he was born with his brother, Paul. Mother - Delore Sherlin worked as an astrologer and raised the boys alone until she got married for the second time. As a child, Vin was a thin, modest boy who found it very difficult to meet girls. Therefore, sport became a constant companion in his life, which made him a pumped-up and confident man.
At the age of 17, he worked as a security guard at a nightclub, he shaved his head and gave himself a new name - Vin Diesel. The future actor entered Haner College, where he studied to become a screenwriter. But without finishing his studies, he set off to conquer Hollywood.
Youth and first appearances on stage
The first role of Mark at that time was a pure coincidence. When he was seven years old, he and his friends climbed into the theater; the children wanted to play among the props. But the boys did not guess the timing - rehearsals were going on on stage at that time. Seeing children who somehow got into the theater, the director of the performance did not complain to the police, but... gave them a script and did a mini-test. Mark learned to read his role better than others, so the director of the production offered him a deal: for each performance he played, he would receive $20. The boy agreed, thus getting a role in the play “The Dinosaur Door.”
For the next ten years he played on the New York stage.
In his youth, Mark was very shy: due to his tall height and very thin physique, he always slouched and looked at his feet. In order to somehow rectify the situation, he went to the gym, which in the future also became his distinctive feature - an athletic physique became the ticket for many of his main roles.
But so far he could not find interesting roles for himself, although the pumped-up 17-year-old boy was gladly hired as a security guard at a nightclub. As Mark himself recalls, it was then that he changed his name to “Vin Diesel” and began shaving his hair
While working as a bouncer in Manhattan at night, Vin Diesel studies English language and literature at Hunter College during the day. There he also learned how to write scripts beautifully, which in the future helped him think through his own roles down to the smallest detail.
Filmography: films starring Vin Diesel
Vin Diesel's filmography began with a minor role in the film "Awakening", and a little later he himself wrote the script for the film "The Many Faces", where he played the main character. Also successful was the script for the film “Vagabonds,” which received many positive reviews.
The long-awaited fame came to the actor after the release of the film “The Chronicles of Riddick”, and “Fast and the Furious” generally created a furor on the audience.

Personal life of Vin Diesel
Vin Diesel's personal life has always remained in the shadows, as the actor believes that he should not flaunt his relationships. He was credited with many high-profile novels, and after the release of the film “Fast and Furious,” many sources wrote that Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez were having an affair. They kiss, spend all their time together, the couple is clearly in a relationship, but after a few months the interest in each other subsided, and the lovers broke up.
Also, joint filming brought the actor closer to the new star; Vin Diesel and Charlize Theron had fun together. Judging by their behavior, it was hard not to notice that the couple had a warm relationship. Is this friendship or just another hobby, one can only guess.
After the release of the movie “The Fast and the Furious,” where the actor had a cross hanging around his neck, many men began ordering replicas of this jewelry. It’s hard to imagine how much Vin Diesel’s cross costs, because it’s made of platinum, an expensive metal. However, many fans of high speed wear this jewelry with pleasure.
Action and glory
With the beginning of the 2000s, Diesel began a streak of success in his film career. In 2000, thanks to the film "Black Hole", a hero appeared who would soon bring him success - Richard Riddick.
A year later, “Fast and the Furious” comes out. Diesel liked the preparation for this filming: he went to see illegal racing, learned various tricks from stuntmen so that he could do them himself.
The audience received the film with a bang. And the acting of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker deserved the highest praise - they received the MTV award as the best film team of the year.
In 2002, another film was released that became important for Diesel - “Three X’s.” After all, there he was not only an actor, but also an executive producer. For his role in this film in 2003, MTV nominated him as best actor, but Diesel never received the award.
In 2003, the sequel to “The Black Hole”, “The Chronicles of Riddick,” was released, but critics were not very fond of Diesel’s performance, and the box office barely managed to recoup the investment.
Therefore, the actor decided to try himself in a new role - and in 2005, a family comedy with action elements, Bald Nanny: Special Assignments, was released - the film grossed about $200 million.
In 2009, Vin Diesel returned to the Fast and the Furious team for its fourth installment.
"The Fast and the Furious" is perhaps Vin Diesel's most successful project so far - he takes part in all filming, starting from the fourth part. The eighth should be released in the spring of 2020.
In addition, Diesel is going to shoot a historical drama about Hannibal while he collects material for this picture.
Vin Diesel Family
Vin Diesel's family lived in small affluence, where they often lacked funds. The mother raised the boy and his twin brother, Paul, alone, but she united her fate with the black Irvint Vincent, who constantly took the children to the theater and cinema. Perhaps that is why Vin Diesel later in his life chose the world of cinema.
With his brother, the boy first tried himself on stage when he was seven years old. They misbehaved and made their way into the theater where the rehearsal was going on, but the director of the troupe did not punish the boys and offered to take part. This is how Vin’s love and interest in creativity began.

The guys didn’t have an immediate success with a film career. Young Vin began his career on the stage: he played in the theater, getting roles thanks to his patron stepfather. His personal life was not as successful as his life in the theater.
As a child, the boy was thin and quite tall, and to this was added natural shyness. Because of this, during his school years he had no luck with girls, of which his brother had plenty: Paul was fair-haired and strong, so he easily attracted girls his age at discos. Because of this, Vin decided to become more courageous and literally settled in the gym.
The guy began working as a bouncer in a nightclub, where he quickly became a favorite of the visitors. Feeling confident, he took the pseudonym “Vin Diesel” and decided to conquer Hollywood. By the way, the actor took the name “Vin” in honor of his twin, shortening his last name “Vincent” to three letters. This is how he showed love and respect for the person with whom he grew up side by side.

Paul, who was in love with cinema with all his soul like Vin, decided to connect his life with the less public side of this business. He took part in a short film written, directed and produced by Vin Diesel called "Many Faces", for which Vincent handled sound editing.
The film's story is largely biographical: the film tells the story of a multiracial actor who faces various emotional and professional problems. The film was released in 1995 and is credited with helping Steven Spielberg cast Vin in Saving Private Ryan, which was his first leading film role.
