Inspired by a line spoken by Dwayne Johnson’s Luke Hobbs in the film’s trailer, Brisk has made his “ice-cold can of whup ass” an ice-cold, iced-tea reality. To bring the can’s story to life, Brisk called on aspiring filmmakers to design and develop a digital ad to debut Brisk’s “Cans of Whup Ass.”  The winning ad, from creator Evans Alexandre, was selected out of multiple entries from young creators. The ad, which can be viewed here, is set within the “Hobbs & Shaw” universe, and stars WWE Superstar and actor Roman Reigns (Joe Anoa’i), who plays Mateo, one of Hobbs’ brothers, in the film. In addition, Alexandre received a once-in-a-lifetime summer mentorship with “Hobbs & Shaw” director David Leitch and will also receive a Brisk grant to further fuel his creative pursuits.

“At Brisk we’re devoted to finding bold, imaginative and exciting ways to connect with our fans’ passions and creative drive, which is why we’re excited about our partnership with Universal Pictures and ‘Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw,” shared Katrina McDonald Senior Director, Pepsi Lipton Joint Venture Brands. “The collaboration presented the perfect platform to support the young creative community; we’re so inspired by Evans’ vision and artistic ability to bring the ad concept for ‘Cans of Whup Ass’ to life in a way that perfectly embodies the boldness of both the brand and film.”

The specially made “Cans of Whup Ass” will be available for consumers through sweepstakes, on Brisk social media, at ComplexCon in Chicago, and at select retail activations and early screenings of “Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw” throughout the country this summer.

About Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw 
After eight films that have amassed almost $5 billion worldwide, the Fast & Furious franchise now features its first stand-alone vehicle as Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham reprise their roles as Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw.

Ever since hulking lawman Hobbs (Johnson), a loyal agent of America’s Diplomatic Security Service, and lawless outcast Shaw (Statham), a former British military elite operative, first faced off in 2015’s Furious 7, the duo have swapped smack talk and body blows as they’ve tried to take each other down.

But when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever — and bests a brilliant and fearless  rogue MI6 agent (The Crown‘s Vanessa Kirby), who just happens to be Shaw’s sister — these two sworn enemies will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves.

Hobbs & Shaw blasts open a new door in the Fast universe as it hurtles action across the globe, from Los Angeles to London and from the toxic wasteland of Chernobyl to the lush beauty of Samoa.

Directed by David Leitch (Deadpool 2, Atomic Blonde and co-directed John Wick) from a story by longtime Fast & Furious narrative architect Chris Morgan and a screenplay by Morgan and Drew Pearce (Mission: Impossible-Rogue Nation, Iron Man 3), the film is produced by Johnson, Statham, Morgan and Hiram Garcia. The executive producers are Dany Garcia, Kelly McCormick, Ethan Smith, Ainsley Davies and Steven Chasman.
