Four months after Paul Walker's tragic death, the stars of "Fast & Furious 7" are set to resume production in early April, Yahoo Movies reported.
However, for Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, it will be a tough few months.
"The biggest pain I felt was for his family, his daughter," Johnson told Yahoo Movies on Monday while he was promoting his upcoming film, "Hercules," at CinemaCon in Las Vegas.
Johnson, 41, opened up about Walker's death for the first time as he talked about honoring Walker in the high speed film franchise and giving a promising end to his character, Brian O' Conner.
"It's very important for everybody involved, of course," Johnson said. "It's not easy, and it's a challenge when you have something like this - a beloved person. Paul, as you guys know, he was truly one of the good guys - a great dude, who didn't take himself seriously, loved what he did, understood the business of the business. You got the real deal, genuine guy when you got him. So it's important for everybody to creatively honor him in the best way that we possibly can."
Walker died in a high-speed car crash over Thanksgiving weekend. Shocked castmates expressed distress and hard times after his death.
Since the 2001 original film, many of the actors had worked together and bonded like a family, according to Yahoo Movies.
"[You deal with it] as best you can," he said. "We've all dealt with that kind of loss before, where it jolts us and it jolts our hearts. I think it also has a way of informing us. Loss like that also has a way of making us love better, love stronger, appreciate our loved ones and our family that much more, when we wake up and when we go to bed. How families deal with loss, everyone has their own process."
Johnson specially mentioned Walker's 14-year-old daughter, Meadow.
"We had talked about that a multitude of times - how cool it is to be a dad. There's that really special bond between a dad and his little girl. She'll always be his little girl. ... So my biggest pain was for his family and for his daughter, mom, and dad."
