Theories as to whether Brian O’Conner is still alive in Fast and Furious 9 were cleared up by the film’s director, Justin Lin.

With the premiere of the second preview of Fast and Furious 9, fans of the cars and the epic action scenes of the saga began to throw theories and doubts about the story that we will see in the next installment of the saga.

Without a doubt, when we think of Fast and Furious the first things that come to mind are the characters of Dominic Toretto from Vin Diesel and Brian O’Conner from Paul Walker. With the death of the actor, we saw the end of the eighth installment separating the two old friends of the saga and since then the question has been how his departure from history would be justified.

However, after the release of the new trailer, in which we were able to see the new stars that will be part of the film, some fans noticed that Toretto appeared in some images seeing photographs of his partner in adventures.

Brian O’Conner still alive?

The doubts were recently cleared by the director of the film, Justin Lin, who was very direct when talking about what will happen to the character of Paul Walker:

“The fact that Brian O’Conner is still alive in this universe must be recognized. We’re treating Fast and Furious 9 as the first movie in the last chapter, and at some point, it’s something I think about and how we can really show their presence but in a respectful way.

Based on what we know so far about Fast and Furious 9, the director wants to include the character at some point in the next two films that will end this gigantic franchise, Fast and Furious 10 and 11.

Fast & Furious 9 cast.

As we have reported the cast of the next installment will feature Vin Diesel as the protagonist, accompanied by Michelle Rodriguez, Tyrese Gibson, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, Jordana Brewster, Nathalie Emmanuel, Helen Mirren, and Charlize Theron.

They will be joined by former wrestler John Cena, who will play Jakob Toretto, Dominic’s evil brother and the main antagonist from the latest trailer. It also highlights the return of Sung Kang as Han, who apparently did not die in Tokyo.

Now that we know that Brian O’Conner is still alive in Fast and Furious 9, we will only have to wait to see how they will manage to include the character in the final films of the saga, although with today’s technology we know that anything is possible.
