'Fast & Furious 8' cast rumours: Paul Walker's return in 'Fast & Furious 7' sequel confirmed?

"Fast & Furious 8" is back in the news and is creating a huge buzz with reports suggesting that Paul Walker's Brian O'Connor may return in "Fast & Furious 7" sequel. You may wonder how and Jordana Brewster aka Mia Toretto has got the answer.

Fans of Paul Walker were left heartbroken and saddened by the untimely death of their favourite actor Paul Walker, whose character Brian O'Connor was given a clean exit in the final scene of "Furious 7".

Though Paul's brother Cody Walker stepped in to finish the incomplete job of his brother in "Furious 7", the final scene of the film clearly depicted Brian O'Connor parting ways with the street racing/criminal scene by driving off on a separate road from his best friend Dominic Toretto, in his white Toyota Supra.

While fans saw this as a closure to the actor's character and end of his saga in the "Fast and Furious" franchise, Jordana Brewster's rumoured comeback has churned out speculations about Brian O'Connor possible return in "Fast & Furious 8".

Just a couple of weeks ago, there have been various reports that suggested that Brewster may return to reprise her role as Dom's little sister Mia for the eight installment of "Fast & Furious" franchise. Brewster's return has not been confirmed yet, but she revealed in an interview that she is not ruling out possibilities of her come back in the movie.

Now, the buzz has gone wild that if Mia is back, Brian has to return. And Christian Post reported that Paul Walker's Brian O'Connor will be appearing in the movie through flashbacks and that there's a huge possibility that these scenes will be shot using CGI, to bring Paul's character back to life.

Like we already know that in "Furious 7" Walker's unfinished scenes were taken over by his brother Cody and how CGI helped the makers complete the scenes featuring Paul Walker.

However, Christian Today has ruled out rumours regarding not just Paul's, but even Mia's comeback. The website has reported that Mia's return is not possible without Cody, who is now, no longer part of the "Furious" franchise. The report has clearly pointed out with Cody's name being removed from the list of actors in the movie's official IMDb page, the comeback seems impossible.

Whether Paul Walker's fans will get to see Brian O'Connor again is something we will know only when "Fast & Furious 8" hits theatres on 14 April 2017.
