Paul Walker appears on the first official posters for Fast & Furious 7
And, in a particularly poignant move, they feature the late Paul Walker, one of the stars of the hit movie series.
The actor passed away in November 2013 after the car he was driving crashed, and his shocking death is still being felt across Hollywood.
However, despite his life being tragically cut short, he will appear in the film, which is set for release in April 2015.
Two posters have now been revealed for the upcoming movie that was put on hold following Walker's death.
In one of the posters, he is seen standing alongside the rest of the staple cast members from the car-racing movies: Dwayne Johnson, Michelle Rodriguez, Vin Diesel, Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris and Jordana Brewster.
In the second promotional image for the action film, the tyre of a wheel is seen up close, with the group of friends standing far off in the background.
Although it's not clear if the image was taken of Walker - who plays Brian O'Connor in the hit films - before his death, it appears he has been included in the far-off image of the seven lead characters.
Universal Studios revealed at the weekend that the film's official title is Furious 7, after undergoing a name change.
The posters have been unveiled for fans just days ahead of the first official trailer for the flick is to be released, on November 1.
In order to filming to commence after the movie star's death last year, Walker's brothers Caleb and Cody stepped into his shoes to complete the final scenes.
It's thought that the powers of CGI also helped to finish off the scenes that he had yet to film.
