Walker's final film set for April release

Brick Mansions, the action thriller that Paul Walker finished filming before his fatal car accident, will open in US cinemas in April.

Brick Mansions, the last completed film featuring the late US actor Paul Walker, will be released in the United States on April 25.

The English-language remake of the French action movie District B13 had been scheduled to hit US cinemas this month, but was pulled from studio Relativity's diary following Walker's death in a car crash in November.

The film, which also stars rapper-turned-actor RZA, features Walker as an undercover police officer trying to disarm a bomb.

As a mark of respect, Relativity bosses will not have a premiere for Brick Mansions. Instead, they will donate the money they would have spent on a red-carpet launch party to Walker's Reach Out Worldwide charity.

Walker was working on the seventh instalment of the Fast and Furious franchise at the time of his deathh, and had only half-completed his scenes.
