Dwayne Johnson teases details for Hobbs and Shaw 2

Dwayne Johnson has teased "villains, anti-heroes and heroes all across the board" for ‘Hobbs & Shaw 2’.
The 47-year-old actor – who reprised the role of Luke Hobbs opposite Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw for last year’s ‘Fast & Furious’ spin-off – has given some details about the upcoming sequel.
Speaking on Instagram this week, he revealed: "Chris Morgan, of course, will write again, Seven Bucks Productions will produce again.
"We created a lot of great characters, from Vanessa Kirby’s character to Idris Elba, and Eiza Gonzalez. And now in this next instalment we have a few more surprises and great characters to create.
"Not characters that Hobbs can just kick the shit out of, because that’s boring, but characters I think that you guys are gonna fall in love with. Villains, anti-heroes, and heroes all across the board."
Last month, Johnson confirmed a follow-up to the action blockbuster was in the works.
He said at the time: "We are developing now the next film, the next (Hobbs & Shaw) movie, and I’m pretty excited about it … Just gotta figure out the creative right now, and the direction we’re going to go."
The Rock previously recalled how his mother, Ata Johnson, wept on the set of ‘Hobbs & Shaw’ as she heard her son speak in Samoan, the language of their family.
The former WWE star – who spent part of his childhood in Hawaii – said: "It’s the very first time in the history of Hollywood that the Samoan culture has ever been showcased on this scale, so it’s a big deal.
"Within the scene, she never heard me speak in Samoan to this degree. She hears me speaking in Samoan, calling on our ancestors to give us strength … I look over and she is crying so hard.
"When the scene was over, a really beautiful moment – all the boys, the guys that play my brothers in the movie, go over and gave her a hug."
