'Fast & Furious 7' Adds 'Game of Thrones' Star Nathalie Emmanuel


Even the lesser known players in HBO's Game of Thrones are making the jump to the silver screen, and it seems like in almost every case it's as part of a major studio project or franchise. The latest to get her shot is Brit actress Natalie Emmanuel, best known as Daenerys Targaryen's right hand gal Missandei on the hit series, who has just joined the cast of Fast & Furious 7.

Emmanuel is the latest new addition to Vin Diesel's street racing flick, along with Jason Statham, Rhonda Rousey, Tony Jaa, and Kurt Russell. Plot details are mostly being kept under wraps, although we know the film will head back to Los Angeles and have Statham as the villain seeking revenge for his brother's death. Emmanuel won't be a part of his crew, however, as she'll be part of the team led by Diesel's Dominic Toretto.

Fast & Furious 7 is directed by James Wan and hits theaters July 11th 2014.
