'Furious 7' News: Wiz Khalifa's New Music Video Pays Tribute to the Late Paul Walker
Those lucky enough to catch the latest box office hit 'Furious 7' last weekend were graced with a spectacular film, but also graced with a tearjerking send off for the late actor Paul Walker at the end of the movie.
The producers settled on keeping the spirit of the character alive while still dismissing him from the franchise. It was a very smart decision on their half and I'm sure it appeased diehard fans of Walker.
Wiz Khalifa's 'See You Again' accompanied the scene, and the rapper has now recently released the official video, which still serves as a tribute to the 'Fast and Furious' actor.
The music video splices shots of Paul Walker, much like the tribute did at the end of 'Furious 7.'
"To have a song that's earnest and sincere and could underscore a celebration of Paul's life. To be an anthem for that. We worked really hard to dial that in," Mike Knobloch, president of film music and publishing at Universal Pictures, stated in an interview with The Huffington Post.
