Who would have thought that Paul Walker had been dead for eight years. In those eight years, too many things have happened. In the past eight years, the "Fast and Furious" series has become one of the hottest movie series in the world, and Paul Walker's daughter has also ushered in her own wedding. It can be said that there are too many memorable things in these eight years. On the eighth anniversary of Paul Walker's departure, his partner Van Diesel published a touching article in honor of the male star.
From "Fast and Furious" in 2001 to "Fast and Furious 7" directed by Wen Ziren in 2015, Paul Walker and Van Diesel have been with us. Unfortunately, Van Diesel is still in the series, but Paul Walker is gone. Paul Walker, who played Brian O'Connor in Fast and Furious 7, died in a car accident on November 30, 2013, while he was filming.
As we know later, Fast and Furious 7 became a film that paid homage to Paul Walker, in which his brother acted as his stand-in. The filmmakers of the film, using digital special effects, completed his performance scenes. For me, the seventh movie is my favorite movie, because this movie has a very touching farewell scene. Even though Paul Walker has left, the actors in the film still remember him all the time. That's why we always feel like Paul Walker is still in the Fast and Furious movies.
To mark the eighth anniversary of his death, Van Diesel paid tribute to his friends on social media accounts. In the article, he talks about being involved in the wedding of Paul Walker's daughter earlier, and he shares a photo of Meadow Walker and his own daughter, who is a bridesmaid. Beyond that, there's a touching story of advice he received from the day Meadow Walker was born, where the actor reiterates that his friends will always be with him, knowing that the photo will make him smile. In the article, Van Diesel is accompanied by a photo of Meadow Walker getting married, and below the photo he writes a long paragraph. Van Diesel's article reveals his thoughts about Paul Walker.
Van Diesel is one of the producers of Fast and Furious. In the film he decided to retire the character of Brian instead of sacrificing. This means that the character is still in the Fast and Furious cinematic universe. After the seventh film, the characters occasionally mention Brian's whereabouts in honor of him. However, Brian did not appear. Considering the story of Fast and Furious is drawing to a close, we're all curious if Brian will return. It is worth mentioning that Meadow Walker is expected to participate in the tenth film. Considering her relationship with Van Diesel, it would be cool if she made a cameo in the tenth film.
Perhaps some people think that van Diesel mentions Paul Walker every time, just to promote the film. But I think that the fact that he's been able to do this consistently for so many years means that he really has Paul Walker in mind. Van Diesel's touching post is a good reminder to fans that Paul Walker's death has had an impact on Fast and Furious and those who love him. Of course, it also woke us up, and this is a movie about family. With that in mind, audiences will surely open their arms and welcome Meadow Walker to the series. Of course, we also hope that Dwayne Johnson can return. After all, Fast and Furious is preparing for a relive of the past, and I hope the tenth film is just as moving.
