Fast and Furious 5 – No Paul Walker

Whilst i was browsing for gossip and news on the new movie i found an interesting interview with Paul walker, and it go’s a little something like this;

Paul Walker“As you know, Paul Walker and Vin Diesel are getting behind the wheel for the fourth Fast and the Furious movie, just called Fast and Furious. So was it the draw of a great script that brought Walker back? Was it a connection to the character he created that gnawed inside him after skipping the third movie? Just what was it that got Paul Walker in the fourth instalment of the series? “A lot of money,” he quipped to MTV. “I don’t know,” Walker added. “I thought it would be fun to go back and do it one more time to close it out.”

But even with the check in hand, Walker says the experience is still missing something. “When I did the second one everyone said ‘What’s up with Vin [Diesel]? Why didn’t he come back for the second one?’ And then I didn’t do the third one everyone was ‘Why didn’t you do the third one?’” Walker explained. “But now everyone is going to be ‘Where’s Tyrese [Gibson]?’ I fought for that, to have him on board and it just didn’t work out.”

I will confess that I’m surprised at the level of buzz that exists for this movie, especially given the parallel tracks to relative oblivion laid down by the franchise, Diesel, and Walker. But if anything can save it, I guess it would be getting the band back together. We’ll find out if it works on June 12, 2009.

    I loved all three movies and own them all, but the best movies are the ones that have Paul Walker in them and I can not wait to own the next one when it comes out Fast and Furious 4. I hope they just keep on going making these movies because they are the best movies out there.

    Love you Paul Walker and please stay in the Fast and Furious Movies.

  8. RJ Says:

    They got to find a way to bring Han back cuz aside from Paul Walkers character, hes easily the coolest guy from the franchise. He should’ve had a bigger role in the 4th one. It pissed me off that he left after the first 2 scenes
