Furious 7 director James Wan recalls the impact that Paul Walker's tragic death had on the development of the hardest movie of his career.
Paul Walker's untimely death turned Furious 7 into the most challenging film of director James Wan's career. Midway through the production of Furious 7, Walker was a passenger in a speeding vehicle when the driver lost control. The car hit a sidewalk curb and launched into a tree, and the resulting fire tragically killed the up-and-coming Fast & Furious star.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT "It definitely was the hardest movie of my career. I’ve done technically challenging movies since then, but Furious 7 just hit on so many different levels, especially an emotional one. It was my first big-budget movie. I made The Conjuring for $20 million, and then Furious 7 was hundreds of millions. But the size of the production did not turn me off; I actually embraced it.
How The Fast & Furious Series Has Honored Paul Walker Paul Walker's death has reverberated throughout the Fast & Furious franchise. Even with only half of his part filmed, Furious 7 managed to rewrite and refilm Walker's scenes with the help of his brothers. Together, they were able to complete his story and provide a touching conclusion for his character, Brian O'Conner.
