Paul Walker will star in the seventh instalment of Fast & Furious, Universal Pictures have confirmed.
Writers have been trying to revise the script for the movie, following the lead actor’s death.
The studio also announced that the action film will be released 10 months later than original scheduled, due to a halt in production and the need to rework scenes already shot.
“Continuing the global exploits in the franchise built on speed, Vin Diesel and Paul Walker lead the returning cast of Fast & Furious 7, which will be released by Universal Pictures on April 10, 2015,” a spokesperson confirmed.
“James Wan directs this chapter of the hugely successful series, and Neal H Moritz and Vin Diesel return as producers.”
Late last night (December 22) Diesel also confirmed the date via Facebook, attaching a photo of the last scene he filmed with Walker.
“There was a unique sense of completion, of pride we shared… in the film we were now completing… the magic captured… and, in just how far we’ve come,” he wrote.
