It's going to take a lot of camera/cgi trickery. I would imagine they've already shot some intense action scenes with him, to which they would only have to manipulate the ending.

I do think they will continue on with FF7, but that will probably be the end of that franchise. It will probably stop at 7. RIP to paul and roger...both were good men.

You know movies don't Film in order, they're all over the place, ending could be shot First.. In some parts CGI could imprint onto another actors body as this has been done before, i heard they are in post-productions so most of the filming is done, I guess its just editing and marketing now..

highly doubt it - too much money involved. superman continued after christopher reeve broke his neck. batman had many stars, james bond, etc.

RIP to paul and roger...both were good men.
seems so, amen to that.

I'm certain we'll see 8&9 as well. They are already well planned. Like I said earlier, F&F doesn't depend on individual characters. Walker himself wasn't in the 3rd one. Diesel, the biggest star, wasn't in 2 of them (aside from small cameo in #3).

The franchise just keeps getting bigger. Fast 5 had been the biggest money maker in the franchise yet. That was until 6 came out and became the biggest grosser. Any smart business person doesn't stop that train.

I think he meant the ending of a particular action sequence--not the movie as a whole--would be changed to have his character die.

Tyrese turns up at crash site and breaks down in tears

The rapper, who starred alongside Paul in the Fast and the Furious films, also took a piece of the wreckage from the scene

Sorry to hear that. RIP, and my condolences to his family and friends. But, apparently, according to the police, speed was a factor. The fast-driving/speeding culture (glorified by the Fast and Furious movies that Walker acted in) does take its toll in cars and lives.

I read somewhere that said they believe it due to mechanical failure due to leaking fluids. The shop claims it must have been a factory defect since the car was driven so rarely and never modified.
