The 'Fast and Furious' film franchise is taking the year off - sort of. Although there's no new entry in the main film franchise, we do have the spin off 'Hobbs and Shaw' slated for release on August 2nd. Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham are reprising their roles in what's sure to be one of the year's biggest action movies.
We don't know how much driving or racing will do with the plot but considering who's in the film it would be impossible to imagine there won't be several fight scenes. The making of the movie was a controversial process, with some in the 'Fast & Furious' franchise feeling that Johnson and Statham were taking money out of their co-stars pockets by holding up the regular franchise to make a movie of their own, so we hope they'll both feel like it was worth it when all is said and done. We're sure the box office receipts will make up for any awkwardness.
