Paul Walker's brother, Cody Walker, has remained silent on whether rumors are correct that he is being lined up to fill in for Paul Walker to complete the Fast and the Furious 7.

Since Paul Walker's untimely death just weeks ago, rumors have been swirling over how moviemakers would try and complete filming for the Fast and the Furious 7, as Walker was a central character and filming was not yet complete.

However, despite strong speculation across various media outlets that brother Cody would be getting the nod and that those behind the film were rewriting parts of the script to accommodate Cody, he and his family have remained silent on the rumors and speculation.

That could well be the best stance to have until anything official is announced, as rumors about Paul Walker's death have gotten out of control of late. Walker's family have had to put up with horrendous rumors that Paul faked his own death and claims that the car accident was simply a death hoax.

One website claimed that it had "evidence" that the entire death was a hoax and that it had detailed illustrations of the set-up of the accident site. However, thousands of Paul Walker fans have slammed the insensitive rumors, calling them inappropriate and astonishingly trashy.

Cody Walker and Paul Walker's family have maintained their dignity amid the various rumors surrounding Paul's death, and it appears that Cody is taking the high road by not looking to get involved in any of the publicity stunts and rumors about his brother's death.

The rumors about Cody finishing the movie for his brother have been warmly received by the Fast and the Furious fans, and most would welcome Cody stepping in to complete his wildly popular brother's work on the blockbuster franchise.
