Hummingbird (known as Redemption in other territories) though sees Statham back to more the more dramatic, character based roles that have peppered his career, much to the surprise of the casual viewer I imagine. Certainly in press circles there has been much made of his break from the action movie mould into more serious acting, but it’s worth pointing out that all of his Guy Ritchie collaborations (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch and Revolver) as well as the likes of The Bank Job and London were all a world apart from the glorious insanity of the Crank and Transporter sequels, that really helped to cement his career as an action icon. We caught up with the man himself for a brief chat, which also includes a spoiler based mention of his involvement in an action movie sequel (marked in the video for those that aren’t aware), which as always found him on fine form. I’m still not used to the filmed slots after all these years, so my apologies for the off camera “Oh!” – I’d just been given the last question signal, which always throws me and interviews always have a habit of going to quick, especially in this case. It’s always a great pleasure to introduce him within the walls of Den Of Geek, so without further ado – Mr Jason Statham. Follow our Twitter feed for faster news and bad jokes right here.
