The new "Fast & Furious 7" trailer features Paul Walker's last appearance in the film due to his untimely death in a tragic accident half-way through production. Shooting had to be delayed due to major script overhauls, and Walker's brothers, Caleb and Cody Walker, had to be called in to serve as stand-ins, according to NME.
Apart from Walker's final scenes, the upcoming action-filled flick will also be featuring the original members of the cast, namely, Vin Diesel, Jordana Brewster, Elsa Pataky, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Lucas Black, and Michelle Rodriguez. Meanwhile, Jason Statham will be portraying the role of the villain. They will be joined by Djimon Hounsou of "Blood Diamond", Kurt Russell, and Ronda Rousey of "The Expendables 3."
Statham's role was first introduced in "Furious 6" in the person of Ian Shaw, but it would appear that he will now be called Deckard Shaw instead. According to Top Speed, Shaw's main goal in the movie was to avenge the death of his brother from the previous "Fast & Furious" blockbuster.
Computer-generated imagery (CGI) and body doubles were used to keep the late Walker's character recurring throughout the film. His brothers were also there to help with the role, lending their voices for their late brother's iconic character, Brian O'Connor.
"Furious 7," as many now decided to call it, has already been slated to premiere on the big screen by April 3. The film is directed by James Wan, who is more famous for his horror movies.The upcoming seventh installment of the "Fast & Furious" franchise is expected to showcase a lot of car chases as well as a lot of today's hottest, if not most expensive, vehicles. With the W Motors Lykan Hypersport shown in the trailer, it looks like Wan will not disappoint the franchise's fans.
According to Digital Spy, the new trailer shows Dominic Toretto, played by Diesel, and the rest of the gang, being chased around by Shaw, played by Statham. Another scene shows Toretto reacting to how his childhood home was destroyed by Shaw. In addition, this film gives the audience a fresh look at Rousey's character, named Kara.
A new image of Luke Hobbs, played by Johnson, was also leaked on the official Facebook page of the franchise, says The International Business Times. Johnson was shown wearing a green vest and black pants and standing inside what looked like a room with glass panels. The photo was captioned, "Hobbs is all business. All the time. #Furious7."
