Vin Diesel, ROWW Tease BLOODSHOT Ahead Of Thursday’s #Game4Paul Event

Fans looking to tune into something or anything Vin Diesel-related can now pan over to new photos being released teasing the actor’s incarnation of Valiant Comics’ supersoldier, Bloodshot. Diesel will be on hand on Thursday alongside fellow Fast And Furious cohorts Tyrese Gibson and Sung Kang and Reach Out WorldWide CEO Cody Walker for the fourth annual fundraising event. The photos provide a sneak peak at some of the signed, exclusive prizes, rewards and collectibles (of which there are more than a dozen) straight from the set of Diesel’s new film currently in production in Cape Town, South Africa. The fundraiser goes directly to promoting and supporting ROWW’s agenda of providing natural disaster relief and support across the globe – as previously envisioned by Cody’s brother, late actor Paul Walker who founded the firm in 2010 in response to the devastating earthquake in Haiti; Paul’s life and legacy will also […]

Covert Ops Action Series Pilot, SHADOW WOLVES, Already Looks Like Your Next Favorite TV Show

Lee B. Golden III

It’s not too clear where the landing pad will be for award-winning writer and director McKay Daines’s new TV pilot, Shadow Wolves. What is known however, is the current career progression of Cody Walker since standing in for brother and late actor Paul Walker in the 2015 hit film, Furious Seven, however small it is with at least one film acting credit next to a few others for T.V.. It was that year that the now 29 year old newcomer signed with Paul’s agency, thus marking a new beginning for his potential in entertainment. No one outside the grapevine really knows if this will continue into the remainder of Universal Pictures’s Fast saga, save for whatever you choose to take from the online rumor mill, but clearly the burgeoning actor and frontman of global charity organization, ROWW, is starting small. Alas, that segue now gets some debut footage with the […]

FURIOUS SEVEN: Watch The New Music Video For SEE YOU AGAIN By Charlie Puth And Wiz Khalifa

Lee B. Golden III

It’s Monday and I have had quite an epic weekend with much more to talk about after this. That said, hopefully you caught my video with my good friend, film enthusiast Jon Cross after watching Furious Seven as it roared through the box office. Reviews are mixed but the film is still generally loved by the majority of the fans of the franchise who have stuck around since its conception nearly fifteen years ago. Furious Seven, as it is titled on the screen in the U.S., was the third and last film to release posthumously after lead actor Paul Walker lost his life on November 30, 2013 while on holiday break from filming the movie. Thanks in large part to WETA digital, Walker’s brothers Caleb and Cody, and actor and co-star John Brotherton reportedly stood in for the late actor as filming re-commenced in Abu Dhabi in Spring of 2014 […]

Is Cody Walker Up For A Career In Acting?

Lee B. Golden III

It was probably a matter of time and obvious to those in the know, but it’s apparently official now that the release of director James Wan’s Furious 7 is well underway and already well onto an epic weekend at the box-office. Among other things, perhaps the biggest proponent to finishing director James Wan’s Furious 7 in tribute to one of its lead stars, late actor Paul Walker, was the involvement of brothers Cody and Caleb, in conjunction with visual effects house, WETA Digital, in order to help fill in the blanks left behind after his death in late November of 2013. Of course, this led to speculation regarding whether or not this would lead to either brother getting a career in film in some capacity as a result, and now at least for one of the two, it appears that way, according to a recent report from THR which states […]

FAST AND FURIOUS 7 Will Release One Week Early!

Lee B. Golden III

Just in time as action stars Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Tony Jaa are seen taking photos with director James Wan and the cast and crew of Fast And Furious 7 upon wrapping their scenes, April 3, 2015 is the new date Universal Pictures is announcing for the film’s release. The announcement marks the third change in dates since the film, which also features lead actor Vin Diesel, shifted its original July 11, 2014 date to April 10, 2015 last December, following the off-set accidental death of lead actor Paul Walker last November. Many of the cast members have already wrapped their scenes, including co-stars Christopher “Ludacris” Bridges and Tyrese Gibson just a few weeks ago. There’s no official word yet on how the film will transition into its new trilogy regarding the script changes that were required since the film’s temporary hiatus in January, although recent months have revealed […]

Will Cody Walker Get His Own Role In The FAST AND FURIOUS Saga?

Lee B. Golden III

From L to R: Cody Walker and Paul Walker Considering the sensitive tone surrounding the death of actor Paul Walker late last year during Holiday break from filming Fast And Furious 7, I do my best to avoid getting too excited when I hear certain rumors that might come off as appealing and, in some ways, “reportable” news. I love the Fast And Furious franchise and was absolutely gutted when the actor passed away, and was happy to hear that the production was keeping Walker‘s character, former undercover cop-cum-outlaw Brian O’Connor for the home stretch of the film’s shooting schedule. Of course, the fascinating part of it all was learning how this would be done. And needless to say, the method being used to accomplish this is pretty intricate – shooting scenes up to three times between using Walker‘s brothers, Caleb and Cody, along with other performers doubling in place […]

Universal Sends A Special Note To Fans For FAST AND FURIOUS 7

Lee B. Golden III

Today feels a little Fast And Furious-themed, and that’s partially my fault particularly after just completing an article this morning about actor Vin Diesel and actress Jordana Brewster. Universal Pictures just went public with a special note to fans of the franchise in light of late actor Paul Walker, in addition to a small update on the production involving Walker‘s brothers Caleb and Cody. The two brothers have been the center of some attention after Paul Walker died tragically in a car crash in November of last year. With the production unsure of its resolve at first, no one knew how, or even if the film would continue through its completion until it was stated a month later by Diesel that production would, in fact continue through a new release date. Accompanying this is the recent news that up to four body doubles would help render a CG-hybrid of Walker‘s […]
