Good news Fast and Furious 7 fans--sentimental cast member Vin Diesel has announced via Facebook that Universal has the new official trailer complete, and it looks amazing. The Riddick star has spoken publicly about how difficult it was to finish the film without Paul Walker, whose autopsy update revealed was still alive immediately after the crash, and has claimed that the emotional movie preview left him speechless.
For action movie star, Vin Diesel, finishing Fast and Furious 7, has been anything but easy--though now that the film is nearing release he may soon find closure.
During a heart-wrenching interview on Live with Kelly and Michael!, Diesel tried to express how emotionally traumatizing having to return to the franchise was after the passing of one of his closest friends in Hollywood, Paul Walker (via Huffington Post):
"It was someone that, we...we grew up in the business together, and we became famous together, and we represented the biggest franchise together.
"He was my partner, and it's a strange thing to...I've been acting all my life and they don't teach you in acting [school], how to mourn someone and simultaneously pretend they're in a scene with you."
For Diesel, who just recently posted the first pics of Paul Walker in Fast and Furious 7 on Facebook, sitting through the brand new trailer for the film, didn't prove to be much easier.
During one recent social media update, Vin mentioned that he seen the remarkable new footage--but couldn't help but think of it in the terms of a retrospective:
"Universal came to visit, to show the trailer for FF7...Speechless... yeah, it was that INCREDIBLE!
"I must also say, that it was emotional and bittersweet... we all went above and beyond to make Pablo proud, but man, I wish he could see what we have created and just how far we have come."
It is good to see that all Vin Diesel's grief hasn't at all interfered with his absolute stellar promotion on the Fast sequel.
