Jordana Brewster is watching “Fast & Furious 5” to remember her on-screen husband Paul Walker (Brian O'Conner) as she prepares to film the upcoming addition to the popular series, “Fast & Furious 7.”
Brewster, who plays Mia Toretto, will be filming her first scenes since Walker suddenly died in a car crash in November 2013.
“I like to revisit all the last ones and get reacquainted with Mia,” she told HollywoodLife. “So I’ve been watching Fast 5, that’s my favorite, and I just work with someone and go through it, and prepare as best I can.”
Why did she choose that one out of all the others?
“It was the one that focused most intensely on Mia and Brian’s relationship,” she said. “So that one holds a very special place in my heart.”
Tyrese Gibson recently posted a photo from the set along with Vin Diesel and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The film was originally slated to hit theaters this summer but the release date was pushed back to April 10, 2015 because of Walker’s death.
The film will introduce a new villain, Ian Shaw (Jason Statham), who seeks to avenge the death of his brother, which happened in “Fast & Furious 6.”
Many of the usual stars are going to be in the film, including the four actors mentioned above, as well as several from “Fast & Furious: Tokyo Drift.”
