Dwayne Johnson is ready to kick all sorts of ass in new Fast 8 set-video

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

We all know that Dwayne Johnson has a seemingly superhuman amount of energy considering he's got just about every second of his life for the next ten years devoted to a variety of projects, all of which he's incredibly excited about, but does he have what it takes to make it through a prison full of angry convicts and guards? I'm betting yes. Production on F. Gary Gray's FAST 8 recently reached the half-way point and the cast continues to give us an inside look at what's going on behind-the-scenes. We know that Dwayne Johnson's character will find himself in prison at some point in the film and Johnson later teased that they would be filming the "prison scene of all prison scenes."

Dwayne Johnson recently posted a new video on Instagram which seemingly confirms my guess that said prison scene will pit Johnson against every single occupant in that prison.

I know you guys can see it… I have so much damn FUN playin' the character of HOBBS. A man who lives by a code of ethics, but who will also rip your throat out and give it back to you just so you can apologize for pissin' him off. For years our #FastAndFurious writer Chris Morgan, our @sevenbucksprod's producer Hiram Garcia and myself would always talk about how insanely FUN FOR THE FANS a "Hobbs prison breakout" scene would be – wrecking every fool that's in his way. Well that day has come, which is why I'm completely iced in my veins and amped out of my f*cking mind in this vid and clearly in need of a horse tranquilizer. Let Toretto and his friends preach family and love… Not HOBBS. The Iceman cometh. And he don't fucketh around. #OnSet #Fast8 #Iceman
