Paul Walker’s brother, Cody Walker, is filling in for the remaining scenes needed for Fast & Furious 7 that his brother could not finish due to his tragic passing in November. Insiders now say he will star in more films in the franchise.
“Paul's character Brian O'Conner will be seen retiring, while his younger brother will join the crew,” a source told Daily Mail. “Of course, Cody isn’t a replacement for Paul in any way, but the producers were really grateful that he stepped in to help them finish this last film and Cody so likeable and charming. t would be a tribute to Paul that Cody carries on the Walker name in the Fast and The Furious movies.”
Cody, 25, and Paul’s other brother Caleb, 36, were confirmed to finish their late brother’s scenes back in April.
The newest Fast & Furious film will hit theaters April 10, 2015. Paul Walker was able to shoot an adequate amount of scenes for the film before he died.
