With “Hobbs & Shaw” having just hit cinemas, talk is running high about the film which made an impressive $5.8 million in Thursday night previews domestically along with $25 million in early international openings over Wednesday and Thursday.
However one of the more interesting stories related to it that has been doing the rounds over the past 24 hours is one from The Wall Street Journal which has gone into the “Fast and Furious” franchise a bit more and looks at the demands and behaviors of its three leading male action stars – Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnson, and Jason Statham.
More specifically it appears all three go to great lengths to avoid looking weak on screen. Producers and crew members on the films tell the outlet that Statham has a studio agreement limiting how badly he can be beaten up on screen, and would visit the editing room to weigh in on fight scenes. Johnson meanwhile enlists producers, editors and fight coordinators to ensure “he always gives as good as he gets”.
Then there’s Diesel who has his younger sister police the number of punches he takes. Diesel reportedly cared so much about who landed more blows in his fight scenes he assigned a numerical value to each move in a fight so he could make sure that Domenic Toretto never lost. Said system was abandoned as it was deemed too complicated.
