"Resurrection" by Paul Walker
The solution was close - Paul Walker's brothers! But which one exactly? Cody Walker, who looks very similar to his older brother - the same athletic build, the same blue eyes with a sparkle and wheat-colored hair - replaced him on the set. And a few special effects made them almost identical. And it is almost impossible to distinguish in which scenes Paul plays and in which scenes Paul Walker’s brother plays.
Most of the footage was taken from the archive, which has accumulated quite a lot over more than ten years of filming. Because of this beautiful directorial move, fans have been speculating for a long time about whether Paul is really dead? But in episode 7 of “The Fast and the Furious,” the hero Paul Walker is removed from the plot forever. Probably, many remember the famous dialogue when Roman turns to Brian: “I can’t stand the funeral anymore. Promise me, Brian. No more funerals." To which Brian replies: “Only one...”.
Evil tongues never tire of repeating that Paul Walker's brothers used his tragic death for their own benefit. Is it so? Obviously, she to some extent helped to make them a career in the film industry, but the Walker family never speculated on Paul's death, and his brothers were not automatically included in the star list of Hollywood actors.
Biography and personal life of Paul Walker
The biography and personal life of Paul Walker have never been distinguished by everyday life, but they have always been bright and magical. It is worth noting that the baby was famous from birth, if only because he became the fourth child in his family to be named Paul Walker.
His father, Paul Walker III, was a prominent businessman in the United States and the head of a combat pistol shooting school, and his mother, Cheryl Crabtree, shone on the modeling catwalk for most of her life.
Brother - Cody Walker - graduated from medical university, but became an actor, stuntman and head of a charity foundation helping victims of floods and tsunamis.
Brother Caleb Walker is an actor who often appears in film episodes and is involved in charity work.
His sister, Ashley Walker, and half-sister, Amy Walker, are far from public figures, so there is no information about them.
Little Angel Paul made his debut in advertising baby diapers when he was just two years old. After this, the baby was noticed and began to be invited to appear in shows and advertisements, films and programs for children.
Walker studied at a Christian school and easily entered college in hot California. The fact is that the guy wanted to become a biologist, but not a simple one, but a marine one, but he became a famous actor.
The personal life of a charming young man has always been stormy, but he is in no hurry to talk about his novels. The young actor’s first love was Bliss Eliss, who was an unknown extras actress, but the romance managed to last more than two years. At the same time, no one understood why the guys broke up; they said that there had never been any love, and everything that happened resembled an ordinary PR stunt.
Fans, however, say that Walker had a relationship long before Elisse; Denise Richard became his beloved, but the romance quickly faded due to the youth of the guys.
It was also reported that Walker had affairs with such talented actresses as Jamie King, Jessica Alba, and other unknown beauties. At the same time, Paul’s longest affair was with Jasmine Pilchard-Gosnell. A marriage relationship was predicted for this couple, but the guys separated and did not even get engaged.
The guy parted ways with all his fans and former lovers easily and gallantly. At the same time, they did not even think of being offended because the relationship was over.
Cody Walker: biography
Cody Beau Walker was born on June 13, 1988 in Los Angeles. He graduated from medical university and, without losing hopes of a career as an actor, decided to become a stuntman. He played a cameo role in a low-budget film. For the first time he loudly announced himself on the set of the aforementioned Fast and Furious 7. In 2020, he starred as a sailor in the military-historical drama USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage. Cody played on the same stage with world-class star Nicolas Cage. And in July 2017, the film The Tunche starring Cody Walker will be released. Unfortunately, the film will not be broadcast in Russian cinemas.
Cody continues the work of his brother and is the head of the disaster relief fund (Reach Out Worldwide). Paul founded this organization after the horrific earthquakes in Haiti in 2010, which took the lives of thousands of people, and considered it his life’s work. In August 2020, Cody got married to Felicia Knox, a girl who has been supporting Walker in his endeavors for several years.
Cody enjoys hiking, traveling, surfing and motorsports, which may seem strange considering the cause of death of his older brother. This guy also has a couple of wonderful puppies that he dotes on.
Media: Paul Walker is alive, his funeral is fake
Only two weeks after the terrible car accident that claimed the life of the famous Hollywood artist Paul Walker, the funeral of the Fast and the Furious star took place in Hollywood.
According to American media reports, a farewell ceremony closed to outsiders took place on Saturday, December 14, at Forest Lawn Cemetery in the Californian town of Glendale.
It is reported that there were few participants in the ceremony, only family members and some close friends, mainly from among the actors participating in the filming of the film “Furious 7”, work on which was interrupted due to the tragic death of Paul Walker. By the way, according to some reports, one of Paul Walker’s two brothers, Cody Walker, may replace the deceased actor on the set of “Fast and the Furious.” The fact is that Cody Walker is very similar to his older brother Paul.
According to media reports, the weather on the day of Paul Walker's funeral was clear, but this only emphasized the pain of loss - all the participants in the ceremony were in black, no one was holding back tears.
The main characters of the ceremony were members of Paul Walker's family - his parents, brothers and 15-year-old daughter Meadow. In fact, relatives insisted on the closed nature of the funeral precisely because of Meadow: the death of her father and the ensuing hype in the press and social networks affected the girl too hard.
However, the family accommodated Paul’s friends and did not object to the presence of several close friends from the cast of “Fast and the Furious” at the ceremony. However, there is no information about whether Walker’s long-time partner in “Fast and the Furious,” Vin Diesel, was at the funeral.
Literally on the eve of the funeral, some media outlets disseminated information that, according to a source in the film crew, Walker and Diesel were in extremely strained relations and were almost openly at odds. According to this version, Diesel allegedly constantly pulled the blanket over himself, trying to emphasize his dominance in the series. This information even gave rise to the theory that the death of the actor who played Brian O'Conner could have been set up, and perhaps Vin Diesel was somehow involved in this.
Forensic scientists and investigators have yet to get to the bottom of what caused the terrible accident on the afternoon of November 30 in the city of Santa Clarita near Los Angeles, which claimed the lives of Paul Walker and his friend Roger Rodas.
According to the latest data, a car accident could have occurred due to a marking line in the form of dies protruding upward by several centimeters. According to this version, having driven onto a protruding dividing line, a Porsche Carrera GT traveling at high speed lost control, crashed into two obstacles and caught fire.
On the day of Paul Walker's funeral, his fans also remembered their favorite actor. Flowers, candles and touching messages filled the scene of the car crash and the space in front of Walker's house.
But a huge number of bereaved fans of the Fast and the Furious star, despite everything, continue to believe that Paul Walker is alive, and even the funeral could not shake this belief. Moreover, the photo of Paul Walker in the coffin never appeared in the media or on the Internet (which is understandable - the artist’s body was severely burned in the disaster, and before the funeral his remains were cremated).
Dozens of articles appear in the media every day that, in fact, Paul Walker is alive and is simply hiding somewhere, either fearing some danger that threatens him, or simply wanting to take a break from fame and popularity.
The funeral that took place on Saturday fit well into this semi-fantastic version - notes have already appeared that, they say, the ceremony was held as a distraction, the artist’s grave is fake, in fact no one is buried in it, and all this was done in order to better hide ends in water.
From all the semi-crazy, but not devoid of logic, construction, the same conclusion follows again: well, of course, Paul Walker is alive and is just waiting for the right moment to return.
Interesting facts about the Walker family
- Paul Walker's brothers went to every premiere of his film.
- Cody is 15 years younger than Paul, so their relationship was not very close due to their age.
- Paul Walker's brothers spend a lot of time with Paul's daughter, Meadow Rain Walker, who inherited $25 million from her father.
- The Walkers' parents were Mormons, and their children attended Christian schools.
- In the family, in addition to Paul, Caleb and Cody, there are two more sisters - Ashley and Amy.

Why don't we often hear about Paul Walker's brothers?
Paul Walker's brothers are not known to the general public and remain in the shadow of their famous brother Paul. Why is this happening? First of all, Cody and Caleb are just starting their careers, while Paul started acting in 1985! Films with their participation do not always appear on Russian television screens. Secondly, both actors are already married, which excludes them from the list of eligible bachelors and reduces the number of fans. Although their thoughtfulness and status as faithful and loving husbands cannot but cause admiration. Appearance undoubtedly plays a role in an acting career, and in this field it is difficult to compete with Paul: in 2001 he was recognized as the most handsome man on the planet. But it seems the brothers don’t want to compete with Paul, break his records or win the hearts of his fans. They are just looking for themselves. While not forgetting to emphasize his respect for Paul Walker.
Both brothers helped finish the filming of Fast & Furious 7, continue to oversee the Paul Walker Charitable Foundation, and take care of their brother’s family in every possible way. Cody pursues an acting career, and Caleb lives happily with his family. Both brothers and two sisters cherish the memory of Paul, who, ironically (after all, he became famous from films about street racing and drive-ins) died in a car accident.
