Cody, 25, and older brother Caleb, 36, were captured in the background of a video by Ludacris on Saturday.
The Fast & Furious veteran posted the video featuring himself and Tyrese Gibson going to pat some tigers in Abu Dhabi and Paul's brothers can be seen smiling and walking along with their now co-stars.

Both Cody and Caleb sported near identical cropped haircuts and facial hair lending weight to the idea that both men will be stepping in front of the camera to help finish the film.
The seventh installment of the popular car franchise was half way through filming when Paul was killed in a car crash on November 30.

On December 13, the MailOnline exclusively revealed that the actor's lookalike younger brother, Cody, had been asked to step in and help complete the film, and then this week producers released a statement confirming that both Cody and older brother Caleb will be playing vital roles in the seventh movie in the hit franchise.
In a statement released on the film's Facebook page, fans were introduced to the newest members of the Fast & Furious 'family'.
