More news from the set of “Fast & furious 7,” where production has resumed after a few months hiatus, following the death of Paul Walker, one of the main actors in the franchise. Last we heard from the set, his two brothers, Cody and Caleb, had been signed on to finish his part.

The decision was taken because Fast and Furious is a movie “about family” and because his two younger brothers share a physical resemblance with the late actor, that can't be matched by any other stand-in.

Today's news says that apart from playing his part, the two brothers have also taken the task to record his lines, as it was concluded that their voices were similar to Paul's and thus would make the perfect replacement.

TMZ claims that this way the director will be able to complete important pieces of the dialogue, that have remained unfinished since Walker died in a car crash in November last year.

An official statement on the movie's Facebook page said that “Caleb and Cody are helping us complete some remaining action for their brother and fill in small gaps left in production. Having them on set has made us all feel that Paul is with us, too.”

Earlier in the year, it was confirmed that Paul's character, Brian O'Conner wasn't going to be killed off, as it had previously been speculated, but rather retired, as the script writers felt it was a better way to send off the late actor.
