The filming of Fast & Furious 9 has been recently completed, but a new rumour that is a bit controversial is out on the internet. The rumour suggests that the makers of Furious 9 are bringing late Paul Walker’s character Brian O’Connor in the film. The rumour has already ignited a huge debate on social media as some are calling it disrespectful as some are excited again. Entertainment journalist Daniel Richtman has initiated this rumour through his Twitter account.
Richtman tweeted some weeks ago that he got his hands on a brand new casting grid. From that, he came to know about a casting that could fire up a lot of fans. Now, after some days, he quoted his tweet and revealed that it is Paul Walker’s casting that he was hinting towards in his earlier tweet. So far, Universal Studios hasn’t reacted to it.
It’s been long enough. They are bringing back Paul Walker’s character, Brian, to FF9. https://t.co/320dprmC1S

Meanwhile, the fans of the Fast & Furious series aren’t convinced or excited with the idea of bringing Paul’s character back again in this one. We have already seen Paul’s character in 2015’s Fast & Furious 7. A lot of fans has also quoted it as a ‘greedy move’ as they’re using the beautiful connection of Paul with fans for making money.
Fast & Furious 9 is going to release on May 22, 2020. Do you want to see Paul Walker’s character Brian O’Connor back in this film?
