Fast & Furious

Presents:

Hobbs & Shaw

Although they are usually at odds, DSS agent
Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) and lawless
mercenary Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham)
team up on a mission to stop a cyber-
genetically enhanced terrorist, Brixton Lore
(Idris Elba), as he seeks to unleash a deadly
virus known as Snowflake.

FIVE FACTS:



  1. Johnson made his first big-screen
    appearance as Hobbs in 2011’s Fast Five.

  2. Meanwhile, Statham debuted in the Fast
    & Furious franchise in 2013’s Fast & Furious 6,
    albeit uncredited in a cameo scene.

  3. Lethal Weapon director Shane Black was
    considered as a potential director of Hobbs
    & Shaw.

  4. However, the director’s chair was instead
    ultimately taken by David Leitch, who had
    previously directed Deadpool 2.

  5. Hobbs & Shaw is Leitch’s first film to be
    rated PG-13.
