Brian O'Connerr's story might have been tied up with respect at the end of Fast And Furious 7, but that doesn't necessarily mean the end for the O'Conner family in the universe.

There is obviously a hole left in Toretto's crew, and Universal could score a publicity win by giving Cody Walker - Paul's younger brother who filled in to complete the film when he was killed.

The 26-year-old actor has now been bitten by the bug and wants to pursue a career himself, and his manager Matt Luber has revealed that if the producers of Fast And Furious 8 were interested in signing him, he would be interested.

"I'm not sure if they are going to make an eighth movie, but if they did, I'm sure he would entertain a conversation,"

Vin Diesel's close relationship with Paul Walker - whom he always referred to as his brother - could well be a good starting point for Cody, who could feasibly be brought in as a sibling given that Brian never knew his father.
