‘Fast and Furious 7' Cast News: Vin Diesel Thanks Jason Stratham for Joining Paul Walker Movie [UPDATE]

Vin Diesel is once again updating his Facebook page with lots of stills from the upcoming Fast and Furious 7 sequel. The franchise original has said that he wanted to make sure the film was completed, despite the emotional difficulty, to honor of his fellow cast member and friend, Paul Walker, whose autopsy proved was still alive immediately after that tragic car crash from 2013. While the Riddick action star, no doubt, gave director James Wan his all in every take, the movie couldn't have been completed without the rest of the actors like Jason Stratham, who Diesel thanked for finishing the film while promoting the new movie.

Kevin Hart might have a problem promoting his movies on social media, but Fast and Furious 7 actor, Vin Diesel makes it look like it's his pleasure to post plenty of shots from the new movie sporting his Dom Toretto gold cross to her personal Facebook page.

In one recent post to Facebook, Diesel, who has made no secret how difficult it was for him to complete the project while still dealing with the emotional trauma of Paul's loss, gave the credit for his finding the strength to complete the film to Walker's brothers, Caleb and Cody:

"In some ways, the true confidence to continue Seven, came from these two...

"With great courage and commitment, the Walker brothers worked tirelessly to assist us... in honoring Pablo.

"On April 3rd you will see why I am so proud of them...F7."

The ever-gracious action star not only admitted that the film wouldn't have been possible without the Walker brothers, Vin even thanked the latest Fast and Furious bad guy, Jason Stratham, just for showing up (via E! Online):

"He's incredible.

"The amount of work that we did for our third act fight sequence, I was just so happy that he was just so gung ho about it and so dedicated."

It's just too bad that Stratham's character can't join the cast on a more permanent basis...kind of like a Blofeld to Diesel's James Bond.
