To hear Vin Diesel tell it, working on Fast and Furious 7 without his old buddy Paul Walker on the set with him, is one of the most difficult experiences of his life. Riddick explained to folks that having to pretend that Paul Walker, whose autopsy revealed was still breathing immediately after the crash, was still alive in scenes he was shooting in the daytime, while simultaneously mourning his death at night was the most painful of emotional paradoxes. The experience couldn't have been easy for Jordana Brewster either. The 34-year-old actress played Walker's love interest in nearly every film, and it is heartbreaking imagining her tell Caleb or Cody Walker goodbye, while picturing their brother's CGI'd face on their bodies. According to that latest tabloid gossip updates, Jordana is also having troubles on the set of her show Dallas. Rumors suggest that costar Emma Bell is looking to fight Brewster and all the other actors in the cast to be top-dog on and off the set.
Deep down inside Fast and Furious 7 star Vin Diesel's massive muscle bound chest beats the heart of a very sensitive, albeit simple, poet.
Believe it or not, the action hero revealed that there was more to him than just saying ridiculous one liners, while driving fast cars through gasoline fueled explosions.
At times barely keeping his composure on Live with Kelly and Michael!, the actor carefully explained how emotionally and spiritually draining returning to Fast 7 after Paul Walkers death was for him (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, how to mourn someone and simultaneously pretend they're in a scene with you."
Jordana Brewster hasn't been giving any tear-filled, heartfelt interviews since wrapping up her part of production, but to be fair, she has her hands full with the present.
According to a Dallas insider who spoke with Star Magazine for their August 18 issue, it is all Jordana and the rest of the cast can do, just to try to get along with slightly confrontational Hollywood newcomer Emma Bell:
"Emma plays a queen bitch on the show, and in some ways it carries over.
"She's a tough New Jersey girl, and she sees herself--not Jordana, not the older cast members--as the future of the show."
