Jordana Brewster helped electrify Cannes during the 25th anniversary screening of “The Fast and the Furious,” which she attended alongside original cast members Vin Diesel and Michelle Rodriguez plus Paul Walker’s daughter Meadow. Speaking to Variety’s Angelique Jackson a few days later during a Kering Women in Motion talk, the actor behind Mia Toretto called walking up the Cannes steps “the largest red carpet of my life.”

“And yet I felt so comfortable,” she added. “I had Meadow there and Vin. Michelle and I were dancing. There was something so joyful about it. It felt so good. Once you’re in this career long enough, you know you need to relish the peaks. Your whole career is peaks and valleys.”
