The film will explore Walker’s prolific film career and also showcase, among other things, the actor’s passion for the world’s oceans and marine life and his work to help rebuild Haiti after the devastating earthquake.”

Walker tragically passed in a car accident at the age of 40 in November 2013. He is best known for his lead performance in The Fast and the Furious franchise as well as his philanthropic work, including his aforementioned contribution to the relief fund in Haiti and his immense passion for the ocean. His daughter, Meadow, was 15 years old when he passed and she launched The Paul Walker Foundation shortly after his death to keep his passion alive by supporting the fight to protect oceans and wildlife.

Jon Slusser and Jaimee Kosanke will serve as executive producers on the upcoming doc, which is certain to cause fans to tear up as they learn more about the admired actor.
