Dubbed the king of bachata music, the New York City-born Latin singer Romeo Santos, 33, is set to appear in the upcoming film "Fast And Furious 7" with the late Paul Walker.

Santos told CBS News that he was "very nervous" while shooting the film in which he plays the minol role of Cristian Marambio.

While it was a minor participation, Santos said he was truly honored that he was considered for the part and he is really good friends with Vin Diesel.

"I've always said I'd rather have a small participation in a huge project than the other way around," said Santos adding that the loss of Walker was very unfortunate and he has always been a fan of the late actor and the "Fast And Furious" franchise.

Also reprising their roles in "Fast And Furious 7" are Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, Lucas Black, Elsa Pataky, Michelle Rodriguez, Kurt Russell, Catherine Chen, Jordanda Brewster, Ludacris and Ronda Rousey, among others.

While he is not "Fast And Furious 7," Luke Evans is part of the upcoming short action "Fast And Furious: Supercharged," which also stars Diesel, Johnson and Rodriguez among others.

In 2015, Evans starred in "Dracula Untold," which was a box-office hit but had received negative reviews. The film was intended to offer different take on a vampire story but it appeared to be the first act of a superhero film stretched to become a feature-length movie, which makes viewers reluctant to see its second act, according to Breitbart.
