Vin Diesel and Paul Walker's Brothers on the 'Fast & Furious 7' Set


It had been rumored for some time, but last week came confirmation that Paul Walker's brothers, Cody and Caleb, would be joining Fast & Furious 7 to give the Brian O'Connor character a fitting farewell. Mostly it'll be technical stuff, filling in for Paul on the unfinished scenes, and as this newly-released image by Vin Diesel shows, the resemblance between the brothers is stunning. Diesel also released this touching note on his Facebook page about the closeness he feels with the Walker family...

When I heard the news, I left the production, grabbed a plane and took my family and Michelle back to LA... drove directly to his parent's house...

His Father said, Paul loved you Vin... I awkwardly and nervously said, aw come on... then he said... you don't have to get along every second to love each other... so true.

P.s. After spending time with his biological brothers, I must say to the parents, you raised some great kids.


James Wan has resumed filming on Fast & Furious 7 in hopes of hitting the April 10th 2015 release date, but it's still unclear how they plan to write O'Connor out of the storyline. To me, this image makes it look as if the Walker brothers may do more than just play Paul's body doubles.
