Paul Walker's death won't have an effect on the upcoming 'Fast and Furious 7' film, it has been revealed.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Universal brass had held a meeting Sunday morning to discuss the fate of the film and the team behind the action film is facing a delay in the production after the 40-year-old actor's untimely death.
