Dwayne Johnson se prepara para Rápido y furioso

Johnson adelantó que su personaje regresará a sus raíces luego de ser “despojado de todo lo que tiene, todo lo que es importante para él”.

La Roca aseguró que no pudo contener las ganas de “interrumpir la franquicia de una manera muy ‘cool’ que sorprenda a los fanáticos y los emocione para ver la nueva versión de Hobbs y su mentalidad”.

EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK: #HOBBS #F8 When you strip a man of all he has. All that’s important to him. You force him to return to his roots.. and sometimes that’s a very dangerous and twisted place. If I was going to return for another FAST & FURIOUS I wanted to come in and disrupt the franchise in a cool way that got fans fired up and their blood pumping to see a new version of Hobbs and his “Daddy’s gotta go to work” mentality and set the table in a cool way for where the character goes in the future. Maybe it’s a spinoff movie. Maybe it’s more #FF movies. Or hell maybe Hobbs just gets on his motorcycle and rides off into the sunset never to be seen again. Either way, I’ve had a solid first week of shooting, good to be back with the ohana, good to work again w/ my bud and director F. Gary Gray and our home studio of UNIVERSAL, as always have been the best partners to me and my #SevenBucksProds team. Most importantly… you guys around the world will really dig this new version of the role, ‘cause as we always say, disrupters dent the universe. #Hobbs #TwistedRoots #1Disrupter #1Savage #F8

Su personaje retornará de una manera intempestiva, donde los fanáticos se enfrentarán a una nueva versión de Hobbs, indica en su cuenta de Instagram.

La película que estuvo rodando algunas escenas en La Habana, Cuba, sigue en pleno proceso de grabación. La película se estrenará el 12 de abril de 2017.

Workin’ like a beast to come in and elevate the #FastAndFurious franchise one more time. Been a fun pain grind to put on 20lbs of muscle (wait muscle jiggles right?;) and tip the scales at 260lbs. But it’s time to disrupt this franchise and become the baddest, meanest and most entertaining version of “Luke Hobbs” the franchise has ever seen. When you want to leave your footprint on somethin’ you elevate it and dominate it. Then pack up your shit, hop in your pick up truck, crank the Hank and head on down the road. #FastAndFurious8 #IronFootprints #LukeHobbs
