When Paul Walker passed away last year, many people thought the movie was over.
Company executives planned on pulling the plug on the production, and many crew members started searching for their next gig.
But, days later, producers announced that they will re-write the script and give Paul Walker a proper send off in the upcoming Fast and Furious 7 sequel. However, according to the NY Daily News, plans have changed:
Shooting has now resumed for “Fast & Furious 7,” and Confidenti@l has learned exactly how Paul Walker will remain in the film.
“They have hired four actors with bodies very similar to Paul’s physique and they will be used for movement and as a base,” one source close to production tells us. “Paul’s face and voice will be used on top using CGI.”
Many people underestimate the power of CGI. But, has it gotten to the point that computers can digitally recreate the acting, mannerisms, and movement of a critically acclaimed actor?
