Luke Evans has talked for the first time about the death of his Fast & Furious co-star Paul Walker.

“It was horrible,” Evans said this week while promoting The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug . “Absolutely horrible. It happened the day I arrived in Los Angeles, just before we had to start this crazy press tour.”

Evans worked with Walker on Fast & Furious 6 . The 34-year-old Brit added: “It’s very hard because I’d not really had a huge amount of time to process it. It’s slowly sinking in, as I’m sure it is for everybody else around the world.

Walker passed away on 30 November 2013 after being involved in a car crash.

Fast & Furious 7 has been put on hold indefinitely. Our thoughts remain with his friends and family at this difficult time.
