In the next week, Furious 7 will very likely cross the $1.5 billion milestone at the worldwide box office, blowing away all expectations. The Fast & Furious franchise has solidified itself as one of the biggest and most successful franchises of all-time and despite the tragic loss of star Paul Walker, it has no signs of slowing down.

release date for Fast & Furious 8 has already been set for spring 2017, keeping the series’ tradition of pre-summer launches, and there’s still buzz about a potential spinoff for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s character, CIA agent Luke Hobbs.

Hobbs was introduced into the franchise with Fast Five, the movie that helped place the series in the top tier of lucrative event movies, doubling the box office haul of its predecessor (the film that brought back all the original characters). From there, it’s been an unstoppable ride of success, each movie bring in hundreds of millions more in revenue.

A clear fan-fave, Hobbs has joined Dominic Toretto’s (Vin Diesel) “family” and is a staunch believer in his crew and what it represents. Although he had a significantly reduced role in terms of screen time in Furious 7, Hobbs has some of the best and most memorable moments, which makes him the top contender for his own spinoff film.
