Several stars of the Fast & Furious franchise want newbie Pete Davidson to publicly apologise for a bad-taste Paul Walker gag before they welcome him to the family. Kim Kardashian’s beau made light of the car crash that killed the actor during Justin Bieber’s Comedy Roast in 2015
Pete Davidson is reportedly set to star in the next Fast & Furious movie, but not everyone in the blockbuster franchise is happy about the comedian’s casting.
The Saturday Night Live alum, 28, is said to have only signed his deal to appear in Fast & Furious 10 during his trip to London with beau Kim Kardashian last week, but there is already “a kickback” behind the scenes
Some of Pete’s future co-stars are said to be upset about his involvement in the street racing action films due to a bad-taste joke the funnyman made about the late Paul Walker in 2015.
Paul was a regular in the Fast & Furious films – first appearing in the original in 2001 – as character Brian O’Conner prior to dying in a car crash in 2013.
The late actor’s death was the butt of one of Pete’s jokes two years later, when the comic was one of the main presenters during Justin Bieber’s Comedy Central roast.
“This past year Justin got arrested for drag racing … Unfortunately, it wasn’t with Paul Walker…..What? He’s doing great! He’s got a movie coming out,” Pete controversially quipped on stage.
