Paul Walker News
If seeing how “Furious 7” would handle the death of star Paul Walker is one of the biggest selling points of the movie, then Universal probably isn’t happy that the ending of the film has leaked online.
A number of videos that appear to have been shot inside a theater have popped up on YouTube since the latest installment of the blockbuster franchise premiered at the box office.
Fortunately for the studio, the movie is already a hit after scoring $384 million worldwide during its opening weekend — a global haul nearly double (48 percent) of that of “Fast and Furious 6.”

The film was originally slated to open July 11, 2014, but production was put on indefinite hiatus following the death of star Paul Walker. Production ended up resuming in April, with a Walker's role being completed through a mix of CGI and his brothers' help.
