Clint Eastwood's son, Scott Eastwood, is also said to play a significant role in the film along with Kristofer Hivju, the Norwegian actor who plays the role of Tormund in "Game of Thrones" series. He will be playing the role of powerful villian in the upcoming series, News Every Day reported.

The shooting of the "Fast and Furious 8" is going to start production in the next four weeks to come. Johnson is said to be pouring in more details on how his character 'Hobbs' will be featured and how will he appear like a big animal, tougher, lethal and meaner than even 2-dollar steak.

 Fun transition begins. Final weeks of shooting #BAYWATCH, and today I start my prep for #FastAndFurious8 which I start shooting in 4 weeks. Physically for #BAYWATCH I wanted "Mitch Buchannon" to come in lean, mean and a dysfunctional superhero of the beach. And full of raunchy Rated R humor. Mission accomplished. For FAST8, the character of "Hobbs" will come in like an animal - bigger, lethal, meaner and tougher than a $2 dollar steak. 530am breakfast. Grass fed buffalo, whole eggs and 80grams of Cream of Wheat. (trust me, if I could cook up Vin, Statham and the rest of the Fast dudes I'd eat them too). This is gonna fun. #FF8Prep #HobbsTheBeast #FinelyTuned #2DollarSteakSucksButEadible #INeedACheatMeal
