Dwayne Johnson Stars In Hobbs and Shaw
By Loan Cat
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Jason Statham (uncredited) first starred together in Furious Six as part of the Fast and Furious franchise, and it was instant “biting chemistry”. The dynamic duo knew instantly that they wanted a spin-off.
Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson) is a longtime lawman. Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) who’s a former MI6 agent that describes himself as a “champagne problem”. Both have left the street-racing organization and have been recruited by the authorities to capture a bulletproof human evolution named Brixton (Idris Elba).
In the process of Hobbs and Shaw’s hilarious banter, biting witt, and belly bending diatribe - the unlikely duo provides an action packed movie with humor. Apparently, the two have a connection on and off the screen, where Dwayne states “my pasty partner is a real asshole”.
The Fast and Furious release of Hobbs and Shaw is set to release in theaters on August 2, 2019.
