Following The Fate of the Furious, franchise fans were captivated by the relationship between Johnson's Hobbs and Statham's Shaw.

Since the greenlight, a talented group of individuals have boarded the project. Mission: Impossible - Fallout's Vanessa Kirby, Idris Elba, and Deadpool 2 director David Leitch are all among the film's surprisingly talented cast and crew.

Hobbs and Shaw hits theaters July 26, 2019.
