Easily the best sequence in the film sees Luke Evans and Jason Statham unite (under their hilarious mother's guidance) to attack Cipher's plane, including the most bonkers action sequence you will ever see in your life. I never thought I'd say it, but there are not enough action sequences starring babies out there.

Anyway, though Luke Evans' Owen Shaw has a very small part in the sequence, the important thing is that he's out of his comma, out of the black hole prison he was dumped in when he gained consciousness and back in the family business. And also their mother has quite ridiculous access to tech (since the Shaws arrive on the plane wearing flight suits), so they could be quite useful additions to Mr Nobody's next team

Given how well Deckard Shaw goes over in this film, there is no way he's not returning.

You can smell the spin-off potential all over these two - particularly Deckard Shaw, who is by far the best fighter in this entire franchise, and who could lead his own If you're British and you love Eastenders, you're basically probably about to see an action spin-off starring
