With Fast and Furious 7 still in the middle of filming at the time of his death, Paul’s brothers, Caleb and Cody, stepped in to complete his remaining scenes. An emotional and heartfelt tribute was included in the film to honor his legacy and profound impact on the franchise.
Meanwhile, Paul’s daughter, Meadow Walker paid a heartfelt tribute to honor her father on Instagram.
