There's still no official evidence that Bieber will star in the film franchise's highly-anticipated seventh installment. But what about Walker's younger brother, Cody?

According to the Daily Mail and several other gossip outlets, Paul Walker's "lookalike" family member could snag a part in the new movie. A source close to the sitation reveals:

"Producers had a string of meetings right after Paul's death... They soon realized they needed someone who looked like Paul to finish the movie and that's when they approached his nearly identical brother, Cody. They can shoot Cody from behind and at distance and if it's a shot they need Paul's face in close up they can CGI it later on.

Cody lives in Oregon, but he's currently staying in LA to help comfort his grieving mother Cheryl.

Cody and Paul just celebrated their other brother Caleb's wedding in October. Cody, who's 15-years younger than Paul, is on the left:

The insider continues, "If Cody agrees it's because he wants to honor his brother's memory. There are many details that still need to be worked out, but right now the family and cast and crew are all still grieving."

Some Twitter fans love the idea, while others are still rather weary.
