Brixton Lore is the main antagonist of the 2019 spin-off film Hobbs & Shaw, a spin-off of the Fast & Furious franchise.
He is a former MI6 agent who betrayed them to seek a viral biological weapon called "The Snowflake". His body was modified by Eteon, which gave him superhuman powers (hence his nickname "Black Superman") to be used as a tool by this organization to claim and unleash "The Snowflake" to kill humanity.
He was portrayed by Idris Elba, who also portrayed The Commandant in Beasts of No Nation, Shere Khan in The Jungle Book and the Devil in The Simpsons "Treehouse of Horror" segment "Clown Night with the Devil".
What Makes Him Pure Evil?[]
- He betrayed MI6 and sided with Eteon by upgrading himself to become a deadly assassin.

- He framed Hattie Shaw for killing her team.
- He kidnapped Professor Adreiko and threatened to incinerate him with a flamethrower if he didn't help Eteon get the Snowflake back from Hattie, then snapped his neck after he betrayed him.

- Attacked the Hobbs residence in Samoa with his soldiers.
- Kidnapped Hattie and ordered one of his soldiers to kill her after she is finished extracting the virus.
