Fast and Furious: Cody Walker suggests AI could revive Paul Walker

The conversation surrounding artificial intelligence in Hollywood filmmaking has taken a new turn as Cody Walker, brother of the late actor Paul Walker, opens up about the possibility of using modern tech to bring the iconic character Brian O'Conner back to the silver screen for the upcoming Fast & Furious finale.

During the production of Furious 7, filmmakers famously utilized CGI alongside Paul's brothers, Cody and Caleb Walker, coupled with visual effects by Weta Digital to complete the late actor's remaining scenes following his tragic passing in 2013, creating one of the most emotional farewells in cinematic history.

Now, Cody Walker believes that rapid advancements in artificial intelligence could offer another viable avenue to recreate his late brother's likeness for the final installment of the high-octane action franchise.

Nevertheless, Cody firmly emphasized a crucial boundary before any such concept could move forward, stating that any potential decision of this magnitude rests completely upon the review and formal approval of Meadow Walker, Paul Walker's daughter.
