The Rock's New Fast & Furious Movie Is Already Avoiding His $760m Hobbs Mistake
Dwayne the Rock Johnson is making yet another Fast and Furious film, except this time, he won’t be making the mistake he made with Hobbs and Shaw.
Hobbs and Shaw (2019)
Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw unites the unlikely duo of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson's Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham's Deckard Shaw in the Fast Saga's first spinoff movie. The titular anti-heroes don't cross paths with Vin Diesel's Dominic Toretto this time. Instead, they fight Idris Elba's artificially enhanced super soldier Brixton Lore with the help of Shaw's sister Hattie and mother Magdelene, played by Vanessa Kirby and Helen Mirren, respectively.
