On Monday The Rock took to his official Instagram to share a photo from his new film ‘Hobbs & Shaw’, a spin-off to the successful ‘Fast & Furious’ series and the photo features none other than Famous WWE superstar Roman Reigns.
The photo also represents Josh Mauga, Cliff Curtis and John Tui. Introducing themselves as the Hobbs Brothers and clad in Samoan attire, The Rock offers a little intuition to the characters displayed in the picture, pointing out that the brothers live in Western Samoa and operate Hobbs Customs, which deliver vintage custom cars all over the world.

The Rock captioned the photo as, “A lil’ HOBBS & SHAW exclusive. THE HOBBS BROTHERS. In Samoa we have a word that means everything to us – AIGA – which means FAMILY. My name is Luke Hobbs and these are my four brothers.
My family. My aiga. They all live in Western Samoa where they own and operate “Hobbs Customs” – a former illegal chop shop, now a legit business where they build and deliver vintage custom cars all over the world. In Samoa we have another saying which is “Ou te le tau to’atasi ae matou te tau fa’atasi” which means, When you fight one, you fight us ALL. Biggest showdown the Fast & Furious Universe has ever seen is coming this summer. HOBBS & SHAW AUGUST 2ND.”
