It doesn’t take greater than a short look on the “Quick & Livid” movies to see how a lot testosterone is packed into each body. Quick vehicles, big explosions, bulging muscle mass, scantily-clad girls — the franchise is saturated with a lot “dudes rock” vitality that it will possibly barely be contained on the display.
So it comes as no shock that the stars of the movies convey their aggressive natures to their off-camera antics along with their posturing on-camera. Whereas precise animosity between the actors can definitely occur (and has), that competitiveness can present itself in different, extra entertaining methods.
That’s precisely what occurred on the set of 2019’s “Quick & Livid Presents: Hobbs & Shaw,” the franchise’s first (and, so far, solely) spin-off entry starring Dwayne Johnson as Luke Hobbs and Jason Statham as Deckard Shaw.
The place the movie itself sees Hobbs and Shaw in a perpetual state of annoyance with one another within the model of many a mismatched comedy duo, Johnson sought to take care of a special form of one-upmanship with Statham in actual life, waging a secret battle on his co-star that had one explicit purpose: make Statham snort as a lot as potential.

Whereas choosing on a fellow actor not identified for his or her bodily prowess could also be one factor, Johnson had no qualms about persevering with his penchant for pranks and teasing when confronted with a co-star very well-known for kicking ass and taking names, Jason Statham. Whereas the characters of Hobbs and Shaw started as bitter antagonists within the “Quick & Livid” movies, starting with Deckard’s first look in “Livid 7,” their reluctant team-up in “The Destiny of the Livid” noticed their relationship morph from enemies to frenemies, which is the place they start in “Hobbs & Shaw.”
