Casting began in the same month with the returns of Diesel and Walker and an initial release date was set. In April 2013, Wan, predominantly known for horror films (including the Saw and Insidious franchises), was announced to direct the film in place of Justin Lin, who left the franchise after directing the previous four installments. Plans for a seventh installment were first announced in February 2012 when Johnson stated that production on the film would begin after the completion of Fast & Furious 6. These script rewrites completed the story arc for Walker's character, which was subsequently retired. Following Walker's death, filming was delayed for script rewrites and his brothers, Caleb and Cody, were used as stand-ins to complete his remaining scenes. The film also marks the final film appearance of Paul Walker, who died in a single-vehicle crash on November 30, 2013, with filming only half-completed. With the previous three installments set between 2 Fast 2 Furious (2003) and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006), Furious 7 is the first installment in the franchise to take place after Tokyo Drift. Furious 7 follows Dominic Toretto (Diesel), Brian O'Conner (Walker) and the rest of their team, who have returned to the United States to live normal lives after securing amnesty for their past crimes in Fast & Furious 6, until Deckard Shaw (Statham), a rogue special forces assassin seeking to avenge his comatose younger brother Owen Shaw, puts the team in danger once again. The film stars Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris "Ludacris" Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Djimon Hounsou, Kurt Russell and Jason Statham. It is the sequel to Fast & Furious 6 (2013) and the seventh installment in the Fast & Furious franchise. Furious 7 (titled onscreen as Fast & Furious 7) is a 2015 American action thriller movie directed by James Wan and written by Chris Morgan.
