13 Bonkers Theories About 2015's Biggest Movies (That Surely Can't Be True)

8. Paul Walker's Brother Cody Will Play Brian O'Conner's Brother - Furious 7

The Theory: Paul Walker's brother Cody will play the part of Brian O'Conner's brother in some capacity in the upcoming Furious 7 before taking a full role in the eighth film. Why It Could Be True: What's really strange about this movie is that, while Walker's brothers Cody and Caleb are both standing in to complete his work on the film, it's also been suggested that producers were impressed enough with Cody to offer him a part in the inevitable Furious 8, presumably as Brian's brother. As such, isn't it possible that, in addition to Cody acting as a body double for his brother, a scene has already been shot for Furious 7 to give audiences a natural lead-in to his full appearance in Furious 8? Why It's Probably Not: The answer really depends on how extensively Cody was used in Furious 7 to fill in for his brother: if his face is visible throughout the film as clearly distinct from Paul, then it would make no sense to re-introduce him as another character later. But considering that he's reportedly been offered a part in the eighth film, it's safe to assume this his face is obscured and altered with CGI, and so he could probably be introduced at the end of Furious 7 if James Wan really wants to milk the emotion, even if he probably won't be.
