Late actor Paul Walker's brother- Cody Walker thinks that Vin Diesel and the rest of the 'Fast and the Furious' franchise made the right move by honouring his brother in the film.
"Paul would have never imagined the franchise going this far," Walker said when TMZ asked Cody how he feels about the way 'F and F' has honored his brother's legacy with the 9th installment of the film about to hit theatres.
Cody said Vin and company have done "a really good job of tastefully paying tribute to Paul's character, Brian O'Conner".
He recalled that he was in middle school when the OG 'F and F' came out, and his brother's movie is what Cody credits for his own love of cars. He told TMZ that people stop him in the street all the time to tell him Paul is the reason they love cars, and he always has the same response "Me too!!!"
