After 8 films in the FAST & FURIOUS series, the first standalone film in the wildly successful franchise is here. Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham reprise their respective roles as Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw in FAST & FURIOUS PRESENTS: HOBBS & SHAW. From the official synopsis:
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’s Furious 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.
FAST & FURIOUS PRESENTS: HOBBS & SHAW blasts into theatres on August 2, but we have passes up for grabs to a special Montreal advance screening on Wednesday, July 31 at 7:30 pm at Scotiabank Theatre Montreal!
