Johnson and Statham were on - hand to present a brand - newHobbs & Shawtrailer for the crew in attendance . The yoke started off with some playful raillery , with Johnson joking that the spinoff was titledHobbs , before Statham block off him and claim the film was in the beginning calledShaw & Hobbs . After a bit more back and forth ( Johnson riposte that he paid to change the title ) , the preview got going .
The Modern dawdler opened with a shot of cars drive to a power plant , like the originalHobbs & Shawpromo . The titulary character are designate arguing and joking back and forward , as they seemingly mark up explosive to introduce two unlike halls . From there , the poke cuts to scenes of Statham require out an entire hall of armed thugs , before Johnson enters the Asaph Hall , sees a giant fellow a foot taller than him , and immediately punches him out . After knock all the guard unconscious , the pair use two of them to pass through a dyad of iris scanners to move into another room . However , the thaumaturgy does n’t work for Statham , who repeatedly smashes his guard ’s head against the digital scanner in frustration ( much to Johnson ’s amusement ) .
Vanessa Kirby’sHobbs & Shawcharacter(Shaw ’s MI6 agentive role babe , Hattie ) also gets an introduction in the new trailer , as she leads an uncover foreign mission to ( by the tone of things ) infiltrate the villain Brixton ’s organisation . address of which : Brixton is play by Idris Elba , who even have-to doe with to himself as the"black Superman"at one stop during the trailer . Helen Mirren also shows up here as the Shaw family matriarch Magdalene ( who ’s in prison at the second ) . The trailer further offers a glimpse at the photographic film ’s many action sequences , including a scene where Johnson and Statham are piloting a jet together and are mean to exclude themselves at the same time … only for Johnson to boot out the latter early , laughing that he always want to do that .
Eventually , Johnson and Statam are indicate move to Hawaii , whereJohnson say he needs his"brothers"(also , lots of cars ) . The trailer includes quick shot ofthe Hobbs house modifying vehiclesfor their needs and doing a Samoan version of Haka with melee weapon in traditional article of clothing , shirtless , and then battling Brixton ’s " army " in Hawaii . This all leads to the - literally - big sequence have in the CinemaCon trailer , as a appeal of vehicles ( presumably , the 1 Hobbs ' Brother alter ) are shown being pursued by a big USA helicopter . The tip vehicle makes a jump and Johnson jump and throws elephantine ropes over the helicopter ’s backstage , as the other cable car ' drivers toss chains to one another and fleece their vehicles together , all while they approach a cliff - side over the ocean . As they labour / pilot off the cliff , the cars are all linked to one another and Johnson holds them together with the helicopter , chain or R-2 confine in each of his hands ( reckon Captain America holding a helicopter inCivil War ) .
All in all , it seemsHobbs & Shawreally is shaping up to bethe most over the topFast & Furiousmovie yet(which is truly saying something ) . The film ’s marketing is also banking intemperately on the singular exchanges between Johnson and Statham to betray the whole thing . It ’s a smart strategy too , realize as the twain had an unexpected amount of chemistry during their scenes together inThe Fate of the Furious . Fingers scotch , the latestHobbs & Shawtrailer footage will make its manner online for everyone else to apprise earlier than later .
