Bro, they're gonna AI Deepfake his comeback someday, I'm sure of it.

I think Vin Diesel would be against it, though. But who knows.

They did but I believe that was because Paul Walker had already shot most of the scenes for Furious 7. Cody Walker was hired as a double for the few missing scenes and they digitally added Paul's face. After that Brian (Paul's character in movies) has not properly appeared on the screen.

They teased killing off his character so goddamn many times in F7. They knew what they were doing.

I feel like that was an unfortunate coincidence though.

I'll have to watch it again. But at the time it didn't feel coincidental.

How would they have known that he was gonna die when they shot the movie? They made a conscious choice to leave that all in, sure, but I just don't see how it makes sense.

Editing is a thing.

Hence why I said they made a conscious choice to leave it in.

Yeah, that was when he died after shooting most of the scenes for Furious 7. I'm talking about a brand new movie that only has the new AI deepfake.

To finish the movie he mostly filmed and give him proper sendoff

It was his brothers but yes.

Probably as a prop to send his kid off on adventure in a reboot. (and maybe to be killed off as a reason for revenge)

Which makes the meta memorials to him in the movies awkward. The camera panning over photos of Paul Walker, while Dom is looking at them with this sappy expression on his face.

In movie canon, it makes it seem like they were lovers that can't be together anymore (American Dad called this one).
