The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that writer Chris Morgan is already “crafting revisions” to the Fast & Furious 7 script, as  executives hope they can “retire Walker’s character from the series using scenes already shot.” “Almost exactly half of [Walker’s] role” is in the can, and based on fan reactions, “there is support for completing the version of the movie that was underway.”
