Actor Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has shared the first look of his character Luke Hobbs from the upcoming action film “Fast 8”.
Johnson released the image on Instagram and Facebook on Saturday, reports aceshowbiz.com.
“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," Johnson captioned the photograph showing Hobbs wearing jeans and a leather vest.
“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,” he added.
Johnson first appeared in the popular franchise in its fifth instalment “Fast Five”, and has since been a part of it.
The 34-year-old actor, who reportedly lost 30 pounds for his role in “Nightcrawler”, had to bulk up to essay the role of Billy Hope - a boxing champion who is attempting to get his life back on track in “Southpaw”, and said “it was a major transformation”.
Actor Jake Gyllenhaal, who is receiving positive reviews for his work in boxing drama “Southpaw”, is eyeing the lead role in Boston Marathon bombing film “Stronger”.
The model took to image-sharing website Instagram on Monday to defend herself by saying she was actually "in love" with her exes Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa
