THE FAST and Furious movies drive home the point that family is important, and its star Vin Diesel is no different in real life.
While he is known for being one of the biggest action movie stars, little is known about his family.
How many siblings does Vin Diesel have?
Vin Diesel grew up in the West Village neighborhood of New York City with his mother, stepfather, and three siblings, according to Time.

The theater’s artistic director caught them. “I thought she was going to call the cops,” he told CNN in 2002.
“She said, ‘If you guys want to play here, come every day at four o’clock and learn your lines.'”
