1. Paul Walker Killed In Fatal Car Accident
In what was undoubtedly the most shocking movie news of the week, Paul Walker, the star of the Fast and Furious franchise,
died at the age of 40 in a fatal car crash on Sunday. He was the passenger in a friend's car, leaving a charity event when the car crashed into a lampost before catching fire, killing both Walker and the driver. Walker is best known for playing former undercover cop Brian O'Conner in the Fast franchise, as well as roles in The Skulls, Pleasantville, Running Scared, and Varsity Blues. His death sparked shocked reactions from friends, family, fellow cast members, and Universal Pictures, who have halted production on Fast and Furious 7 "indefinitely," in order to figure out how (or whether or not) to continue the high-octane franchise without him.
