Is there some sort of clash going on between Stratham and the makers of “Spy”? Early trailers had him on more than Melissa McCarthy. Now you’re lucky to see him in the teasers. What’s up.

Probably used Stathan initially to give people a hook - now trying to make sure they understand he is not the star/driver for the film, and Ms. McCarthy is.
