Beijing, March 27 (IANS): Actor Jason Statham, who was here for the premiere of his latest action thriller "Fast and Furious 7", is "impressed" by co-star Vin Diesel, and says the stunts performed by him in the film were "extremely difficult to do".
Also present at the premiere, which took place on Thursday was Michelle Rodriguez.
