"I had a phone call with Vin for about an hour and we really discussed this a while back. He wanted [our] blessing," Caleb said, adding that Diesel asked if and when they thought it "would be acceptable to maybe bring Paul's character back... to really kind of let his fans know he's still out there."

Cody walker added that the production studio, Universal Pictures, "wants to make sure to be respectful of Paul and his image too, and his family,"

Caleb and Cody did not say when their brother's character would make it back onto the big screen, though with three more films from the franchise set to hit the screens, with Fast 8 releasing next year, Fast and Furious fans could very well see the cop-turned street racer, Brian O'Conner, tug at their heartstrings quite soon.
