NBC Universal Pictures recently confirmed that the late actor Paul Walker's character known as Brian O'Conner, won't be featured in the upcoming eight portion spin-off of the prominent movie franchise "Fast and Furious."
Hence, movie fanatics are evidently vexed upon hearing the announcement, as they were purportedly trusting that the late performer will be seen reprising his character by means of Computer-generate Imagery (CGI) or by another stand-in performance from his sibling Cody.
In spite of the way that Paul Walker won't be in the "Fast & Furious 8" spin-off, NBC Universal Vice Chairman Ron Meyer stressed that the performing artist's character will be represented in some structure or another.
Be that as it may, Meyer declines to further elucidate whether Paul's image is in the motion picture or not and expressed that Paul won't be in the film as a performer the way they did it in the last "Fast & Furious 7."
"He won't be in the film as a performer, as an actor, the way we did it last time. It will still be Fast and Furious, it will just be without Paul," Ron Meyer clarified, according to N4BB.
As noted by "Fast & Furious" Wikia, the upcoming movie was authoritatively announced by Star and Producer Vin Diesel alongside Universal Pictures last April 2015 in the midst of CinemaCon.
According to reports, the "Fast & Furious 8" is apparently the start of the last set of three, while the producers are supposedly examining of coming out with spin-offs and prequels to the franchise.
"We've written out the storyline for various characters. We've been playing with it for a long time. It's a very rich property and we're committed to treating it with a lot of class," said Vin Diesel, as noted by Master Herald.
While Vin Diesel did not particularly mention who are the conceivable characters who will take the spotlight in the conceivable spin-offs, speculations are making a fuss on the web indicating that Indian on-screen character Deepika Padukone will supplant Michelle Rodriguez and could possibly star on the following portion of the "Fast and Furious."
The speculations started to circulate after the reports came out that Vin Diesel has picked the 29-year-old Indian actress to become her leading lady for the sequel of his "XXX" movie.
Notably, the "Fast & Furious 8" is, as of now, slated for an April 14, 2017, theatrical release.
