Her hero! Vin Diesel sweeps Jordana Brewster out of harm’s way as they film house explosion scene for Fast & Furious

Vin Diesel and Jordana Brewster were caught in an explosive action scene while filming Fast & Furious 7 in Los Angeles. The intense moment saw Vin Diesel heroically sweeping Jordana Brewster out of harm’s way, saving her from an ignited house. Between takes, Jordana was seen reacting to the flames with concern, her mouth covered. Despite the chaotic scene, she looked stunning in a blue polka-dotted summer dress with a black waist ribbon, paired with wedge heels and cascading waves of dark hair.

Vin Diesel, known for his muscular physique, showcased his impressive guns in a sleeveless vest, matching trousers, a white tank top, and combat boots. Both actors were captured enjoying a light-hearted moment on set during their lunch break. The upcoming film marks the first installment without their original leading man, Paul Walker, who tragically passed away in a car accident. To honor Paul’s legacy, his younger brother Cody stepped in to film crucial scenes, ensuring that the Walker name continues to be associated with the Fast and Furious franchise.

Cody’s involvement is seen as a tribute to Paul, as he joins the crew while Paul’s character, Brian O’Conner, retires. Although Cody isn’t a replacement for Paul, his likable and charming nature has been appreciated by the producers. This transition aims to pay homage to Paul Walker’s contribution to the films while allowing the franchise to continue. Cody, along with his older brother Caleb, filmed additional scenes alongside Paul before his untimely passing.

 

Speaking about his brother’s death, Cody admitted that it still doesn’t feel real. Working in the film industry often meant Paul would be away from his family for extended periods. Cody’s interactions with Paul were primarily through phone calls, and he acknowledged that it would take time for the reality of his brother’s absence to sink in fully.

Despite the absence of Paul Walker, the Fast & Furious production continues to deliver thrilling action sequences and explosive moments, further fueling the anticipation of fans around the world.
