Idris Elba Cast As Hobbs And Shaw Villain In Fast & Furious Spin-Off

Johnson took to Twitter on Thursday to confirm the news that Elba, 45, will be starring as a "baaaaaad man" in Hobbs and Shaw, an upcoming The Fast and the Furious spin-off movie. The project, which centers on the pair of characters from the main film franchise, is set to arrive in theaters on August 2, 2019. No other details about his character have been revealed, but he will be going up against both special agent Luke Hobbs (Johnson) and criminal mastermind Deckard Shaw (Statham).

Little is known about what Elba's role will entail, but the script is now being worked on by Chris Morgan who's written every Fast entry since Tokyo Drift.
