“From my director monitor on @hobbsandshaw ! Go see the incredible stunt team’s work. #incameraaction @airaware1 @pal_air_mo @gregrementer #oscar4stuntsnow,” Leitch wrote.
Many people commented on the post:
“Best seat in the house / great film great stunts and fight sequences,” @snakeyez79 wrote.

“Seeing the plate is an awesome treat. Thanks for the peek,” @thebriansnow replied.
“They outdid themselves,” @thesihlendaba commented.
According to Leitch’s IMDb page, he’s currently in production for Undying Love, an action/romance based on the graphic novel by Tomm Coker and Daniel Freedman. He’s also working on The Division, a sci-fi/drama/thriller that’s set to star Jake Gyllenhaal and Jessica Chastain.
In addition to Dwayne Johnson, Hobbs & Shaw stars Jason Statham, Vanessa Kirby, Idris Elba, Eiza González, and Eddie Marsan.
Following Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw, this new movie will be focusing on an alliance between the two characters, who have had a rocky history during their time in the franchise. Hobbs first appeared in Fast Five as a Diplomatic Security Service agent who is tasked with hunting down Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel), Mia Toretto (Jordana Brewster) and Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker). The character eventually learns that our main protagonists are the good guys and teams up with the crew for the remainder of the franchise.
Shaw entered the films as a villain, initially killing a prominent member of Toretto’s crew in the mid-credits scene for Fast & Furious 6. However, after spending the seventh film as the main antagonist, Shaw returned to number eight as a good guy.
Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw is now playing in theaters everywhere.
