Iron Man 3 writer Drew Pearce helped steer the script for Hobbs & Shaw in the right direction.
Screenwriter and director Drew Pearce is a co-writer on Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw, the first standalone spin-off for the massively successful Fast and Furious franchise. The new movie is both a techno-thriller and a buddy comedy, as Dss agent Luke Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), former British Special Forces assassin Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) and Shaw’s sister and M16 agent Hattie Shaw (Vanessa Kirby) must stop enhanced super-soldier Brixton (Idris Elba) from getting his hands on a virus that could wipe out half the world’s population.
Along the way there are plenty of the incredible, insane action sequences that the franchise is known for, along with the nods to family (including more on Shaw's background and a trip to visit Hobbs' family in Samoa) and even a few wild cameos.
