The shocking death of Paul Walker is still harrowing eight months later.
—
On Friday, actor Vin Diesel visited “Live! with Kelly and Michael” and spoke about his late Fast & Furious costar. Walker was killed in a car accident on November 30, 2013.
In the interview, Diesel talks about how the death of his best friend has affected him and what it’s been like to film without Walker.
We grew up in the business together, and we became famous together, and we represented the biggest franchise together. He was my partner.
I’ve been acting all my life and they don’t teach you in acting how to mourn someone and simultaneously pretend they’re in a scene with you.
Caleb and Cody, Walker’s brothers, were brought onto the cast to help finish his scenes.
Production for “Fast & Furious 7″ finished last month. The film will be released in April of 2015.
Considering how vocal celebrity peers became after Walker’s fatal car crash, he was clearly a well-respected man in the industry.
