Hobbs and Shaw Trailer
If you’re not on board for this movie by now, I’m not sure what else to tell you. But count me in, because I love everything about this whole bonkers premise, even the introduction of a cyber-genetically enhanced villain. I mean, ifDwayne JohnsonandJason Statham’s characters are two of the biggest badasses on the planet, there has to besomein-world explanation of how they wouldn’t just obliterate any obstacle in their path. Bringing full-blown science fiction into theFast and Furiousworld after so many years is a fascinating departure, and I wonder if that type of deviation is going to define future spin-offs, too. I’d love to see aFast & Furioushorror movie – or at least one that incorporated horror alongside the testosterone-driven action that’s a requirement for any entry in this franchise.
David Leitch, who’s had a busy past few years filmingAtomic BlondeandDeadpool 2, slides into the director’s chair for this spin-off, which is written byChris Morgan, one of the creative architects of most of theFast and Furioussaga.
Johnson haspreviously promisedthis movie will feature “the biggest showdown theFast & FuriousUniverse has ever seen,” and he’s spoken about how excited he is to beputting his Samoan heritage on full displayin this spin-off. (At CinemaCon, he indicated that this was the first major Hollywood production to film in Samoa.)Cliff Curtis,Roman Reigns,Vanessa Kirby,Eiza Gonzalez, andEddie Marsanround out the rest of the supporting cast, andHobbs & Shawis set to blast into theaters onAugust 2, 2019.
After eight films that have amassed almost $5 billion worldwide, theFast & Furiousfranchise now features its first stand-alone vehicle as Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham reprise their roles as Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw inFast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw. Ever since hulking lawman Hobbs (Johnson), a loyal agent of America’s Diplomatic Security Service, and lawless outcast Shaw (Statham), a former British military elite operative, first faced off in 2015’sFurious 7, the duo have swapped smack talk and body blows as they’ve tried to take each other down. But when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever — and bests a brilliant and fearless rogue MI6 agent (The Crown’s Vanessa Kirby), who just happens to be Shaw’s sister — these two sworn enemies will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves.Hobbs & Shawblasts open a new door in theFastuniverse as it hurtles action across the globe, from Los Angeles to London and from the toxic wasteland of Chernobyl to the lush beauty of Samoa.
