Preface: On January 31, 2020, local time, the movie "Fast and Furious 9" held a special concert "Quick Road 9" in Miami, USA, starring Van Diesel, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordana Brewster, John Cena, Natalie Emmanuel and others appeared on the stage, and the atmosphere burst.
"Fast and Furious 9" released the first trailer, kicked off with "See You Again", paying tribute to Paul Walker. In addition, Kang Sung-ho, who died in "Fast and Furious 7", was resurrected in surprise and returned to the super family. The film also has an Easter egg dedicated to Paul Walker. The film is scheduled to be released globally on May 22, 2020.
The role played by Korean actor Kang Sung-ho can be resurrected after he died; but Paul Walker himself has passed away, but the role cannot be resurrected. On the afternoon of November 30, 2013, Paul Walker was killed in a car accident in Los Angeles at the age of 40. It has been nearly 7 years since Paul Walker passed away. "Fast and Furious 9" is still consuming Paul Walker. The filming is too much.
On April 12, 2015, Paul Walker's posthumous work "Fast and Furious 7" was released in China, with a cumulative box office of 2.4 billion yuan and a global box office of 1.511 billion US dollars. Wu Qinggong, a non-famous entertainment critic, pointed out: A large part of the reason for such a high box office is because of Paul Walker, because this is his posthumous work.
"Fast and Furious 8" was released simultaneously in the United States and China on April 14, 2017. The box office in China reached 2.67 billion yuan and the global box office reached 1.23 billion US dollars. Before "Fast and Furious 8" was released, it was promoted all over the world under the banner of "Salute Paul Walker", and the audience was also curious about how the plot should develop after the role played by Paul Walker retired.
Isn’t it possible to shoot a series of rapid-fire movies without Paul Walker? Paul Walker's popularity was not very high during his lifetime. Van Diesel has always been the number one trump card in the swift film series. The addition of Dawn Johnson and Jason Statham to the Swift Family did not affect Van Diesel’s superstar status, but instead compressed Paul Walker’s role.
Paul Walker starred in a total of 6 swift films, namely "Fast and Furious 7", "Fast and Furious 6", "Fast and Furious 5", "Fast and Furious 4", "Fast and Furious 2", and "Fast and Furious 2". Passion 1". On August 2, 2019, the first rumored film of "Fast and Furious", "Fast and Furious: Special Operations" was released.
The film's box office in the Mainland reached 1.434 billion. The leading actors are Dawn Johnson and Jason Statham. There is neither Van Diesel nor Paul Walker, so the box office does not exceed 1.5 billion. "Fast and Furious 9" has both Van Diesel and Paul Walker. Can the box office exceed 2 billion? More than 2 billion, will the money be distributed to Paul Walker's family?
Discussion: Do you think it is appropriate to consume Paul Walker in "Fast and Furious 9"?
