After the unexpected death of actor Paul Walker last December, thousands of followers of the popular movie series "Fast and Furious" wondered what the future of the franchise would be without one of its most emblematic stars.

The interruption in filming the seventh Fast and Furious movie, a movie Walker and the rest of the cast had begun filming in mid-2013, put fear in the minds of fans.

However, as it had been announced recently, Universal revealed that filming for the movie continues and that they've hired four new actors to complete the scenes the late actor did not manage to film due to his premature death, according to The New York Daily News.

Earlier this year, Universal Studios revealed that they would complete the film as a homage to the actor, and detailed that the premiere of Fast and Furious 7 would happen in cinemas around the world in April 10, 2015, but details on filming and how Walker's part will conclude are a mystery.

If the news are confirmed, the fans of the action movies might see a new story that offers a final, satisfactory point for Brian O'Conner, the policeman Paul Walker played in the saga.

"Four actors who look a lot like Walker have been hired to play the movie's base scenes," said a source close to the project according to the Daily News. The same source told the newspaper that the voice and face of the late actor will be recreated through CGI, a technique that has already been used in cinema and TV to complete the scenes of actors who died unexpectedly.

According to News 4, a similar technique was used after the death of Oliver Reed, which happened during the shooting of "Gladiator" in 2000. The actor died before he completed all of his scenes, and producers completed them with a body doubled combined with CGI.
