"Furious 7," the latest installment of the street-racing "Fast and Furious" franchise, will hit Chinese cinemas on April 12.

The movie, directed by James Wan, is one of the last films starring Paul Walker, who died midway through shooting in a car crash in November 2013 at the age of 40.

Walker's performance was completed with his brothers Caleb and Cody doubling for the actor. A digitally recreated Walker also appears in the film.

The street racing action film franchise has attracted a large number of fans worldwide since the first installment debuted in 2001.
