When Fast and Furious actor Paul Walker passed away in November 2013 due to a fatal car crash, his brothers Caleb and Cody Walker had to step in to help finish Furious 7. Because of that experience, one of the two brothers is seriously considering a career in Hollywood.
The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Paul's youngest brother Cody, 26 has been working with Paul's manager Matt Luber at Luber Rocklin Entertainment, and has even been taking meetings with different talent agencies.
Cody apparently wants to nab roles in different film and television projects, and venture outside the Fast and Furious franchise. It also remains uncertain whether or not Cody will be returning for any acting jobs in the future Fast and Furious instalments.
Cody and Caleb did their brother's remaining scenes in Furious 7 via elaborate CGI and Peter Jackson's WETA effects.
Not only is Cody interested in pursuing his brother's career, but he is also dedicated to continuing Paul's legacy through charitable works. Cody is also the brand manager of Paul's foundation called Reach Out Worldwide, an organization that offers relief efforts to areas that have been destroyed by natural disasters.
Paul started his acting career by appearing in television shows such as The Young and the Restless, Highway to Heaven, Who's the Boss? and Touched by an Angel. He became a more prominent figure in Hollywood after starring in teen films such as She's All That and Varsity Blues.
He also had supporting roles in movies such as Pleasantville, Flags of Our Fathers, and The Skulls.
However, it was his role as Brian O'Conner in the street racing action film The Fast and the Furious that really solidified Paul's success. He reprised the said role in the film's sequels up until his death. Throughout the franchise, Paul also worked on other movies such as Eight Below, Into the Blue, Joy Ride, and Takers.
Not only did Paul dabble into acting, but he also modelled for The Coty Prestige fragrance brand Davidoff Cool Water for Men in 2011. He also appeared in the small screen through National Geographic Channel's series called Expedition Great White.
After his single car accident with friend Roger Rodas, his other films such as Hours and Brick Mansions were released posthumously. Furious 7 will be the last movie Paul would make an appearance, and it will be released in the United States on April 3, 2015.
