Forget ‘Fast & Furious,’ Jason Statham’s Spin-Off Is Officially a Streaming Smash

Collider · 4 hours ago

Jason Statham’s *Fast & Furious* spin-off *Hobbs & Shaw* is enjoying renewed success on Hulu, adding to the actor’s recent streaming resurgence. The 2019 film, starring Statham and Dwayne Johnson, has become another example of an underperforming or divisive theatrical release finding a larger audience through streaming.

Directed by David Leitch and reportedly produced for $200 million, *Hobbs & Shaw* earned approximately $760 million worldwide. It remains Statham’s highest-grossing film as a leading actor, although he has appeared in more successful *Fast & Furious* instalments, including *Furious 7* and *The Fate of the Furious*. Its streaming performance follows similar recoveries for *Shelter* and *Mutiny*, which struggled theatrically but have since ranked strongly on Starz and Prime Video.

  • *Hobbs & Shaw* is surging on Hulu.
  • The 2019 spin-off earned $760 million worldwide.
  • It is Statham’s biggest leading-role hit.
