The Fast & Furious 9 trailer that hit global shores this week has once again reminded us of the massive fanbase and unabashed love it holds across. While everything is nostalgic with the franchise, the void that Late Paul Walker left haunts us with each passing film that doesn’t have him. But do you know his character Brian O’Conner is still alive in the F&F timeline?
For the unversed, while the Fast & Furious 7 was in the making, star Paul Walker breathed his last in a tragic accident and left a void. His death wasn’t an easy blow to the franchise that had him pitched the closest to Vin Diesel in the film. And as expected the makers did everything possible to bid him a final goodbye. With the help of CGI and his look-alike brother as double, the makers finished the film. Has the final scene even left our minds? No. But now if F9 director Justin Lin is to be believed, Brian is still alive in the franchise. Read on to know everything and also what Lin exactly has to say.
As per We Got This, Fast & Furious 9 director Justin Lin who is on the director’s chair after missing for the last two instalments, is just like us, still not over the loss that happened to the franchise with Paul Walker’s death. He says Paul Walker has always been behind them as a shadow in the making of the film. Talking about his character Brian, he says it is always a battle of how to give him a respectful arc in the timeline.
