Actor Vin Diesel has revealed that he regularly asks fans for advice when it comes to his film work.

The 45-year-old said that he turns to his "Facebook angels" for advice each time he accepts a new role, Daily Star reported.

"They were the first ones to suggest Dwayne Johnson and I working together (in Fast Five) and without giving Fast 6 away, that cameo at the end was strictly from the Facebook page. They all said, 'We had a dream of seeing you guys work together'," he added.

The actor said that he thinks it is important to listen to what the fans want to see, describing it as a "rare moment in Hollywood".
 

"I have to listen to them... It's such a rare moment in Hollywood, where we're able to actually hear feedback from the audience and I think it makes for a better movie," he added.
