According to Variety, the selections were announced by radio host Ellen K, the chair of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce’s Walk of Fame selection panel, on Friday. The selection panel, which is made up of people with existing stars on the Walk of Fame, chose the honorees out of hundreds of people nominated for a star.

Jordana Brewster, who played his wife in the Fast and Furious films, tweeted an old picture of Paul from the sets, and wrote, “You are going to get your star. Shining on forever. Hollywood walk of fame class of 2023.” Many fans also took to social media saying it was ‘too late but well-deserved’. One fan tweeted, “About time @RealPaulWalker got a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame! #paulwalker #GoneTooSoon.” Another fan wrote, “Paul left us way too soon. But the star makes him immortal.”
