FAST & FURIOUS 8 shows Helen Mirren slapping Jason Statham and doing wicked things with Vin Diesel in the new Fate of the Furious teaser trailer
Helen Mirren slaps Jason Statham in Furious 8
It takes a brave person to take a swing at The Stath.
Mirren, of course, goes for it it, cracking the hard man across the face.
We've seen Statham bruised and bloodied in numerous fight scenes and still come out victorious, but he's no match her for his dear old 'ma.
The online clip is the very first look at Dame Helen in the latest Fast & Furious sequel where she also proves more than a match for Vin Diesel.

After the wallop, Mirren smirks and says: "There's my boy."
We know that Mirrens's character, Mrs Shaw, in on the war path after her other son, Owen Shaw (Luke Evans) ended up in a coma in the previous film.
Deckard Shaw (Statham) actually allies with Dwayne Johnson's Hobbs this time around.
We have no idea why yet, but Diesel's Dominic Toretto has defected from his team and hooked up with Charlize Theron's evil techno-terrorist Cipher.

Don't mess with Mirren
Real life has been mirroring art with the movie's two main stars embroiled in an ongoing feud.
Diesel and Johnson are being kept apart during the current press tour to promote Fast & Furious 8. The Rock was notably absent during the recent cast appearance at CinemaCon in Las Vegas.
Last summer, as the Hollywood action stars were coming to the end of filming, The Rock took to social media to express his fury at his male co-stars.
Calling them “chicken sh** candy asses”, the actor lashed out at their apparent conduct on set , which made his “blood boil”.

It turns out that Dwayne Johnson was referring to Diesel, the pair having disagreed over some decisions about the making of Fast and Furious 8: The Fate of the Furious.
Sounds like they both need a good talking to and a clipped ear from 'Ma Shaw...
The Fate of the Furious will be released in UK cinemas on April 14, 2017.
