Jason Statham is primarily known for his tough-guy, action movie roles; the Transporter, the Mechanic, either Hobbes or Shaw, we can’t remember which. Less well-known: his half-naked electropop music video dancer roles.
Well, now, according to reports, Statham has his next badass movie role lined up, in which he plays … a beekeeper? Yeah, Statham’s next gig is a movie called The Bee Keeper about some guy who’s somehow some sort of beekeeper. While we don’t know much, it’s based on a script by Kurt Wimmer, the guy who penned the remake of Total Recall, the remake of Children of the Corn, and the remake of Point Break. So maybe The Bee Keeper is secretly a remake of, I don’t know, Krull? He also wrote the underrated Equilibrium as well as Salt, which is easily the best Angelina Jolie-fronted spy movie named after a tasty mineral.
