MOVIE NEWS – Jason Statham himself has revealed the intense first image from his upcoming action thriller…
Action icon Jason Statham has revealed the first photo from his upcoming action thriller Mutiny. He took to Instagram to share the first image from the film, which shows the actor standing in a familiar spot – gun in hand and a stern expression on his face, ready to take out as many bad guys as he can. You can check out the first image from Mutiny below.
Statham has teamed up with Jean-François Richet, the director of last year’s Gerard Butler-starring Plane, for Mutiny, which will see the Beekeeper star on the run while uncovering a massive global conspiracy. The rest of the cast includes Peaky Blinders and Malignant star Annabelle Wallis and Jason Wong from The Gentlemen.

Mutiny will be distributed by Lionsgate, with the studio reportedly acquiring the rights for an eight-figure sum. The action thriller was written by Plane writers J.P. Davis and Lindsay Michel Plane, as Lionsgate Motion Picture Group’s vice president of co-productions and acquisitions Lauren Bixby alluded to when discussing the film.
“Jason Statham is one of the most kinetic action stars in the world and we look forward to teaming him up with Jean-François and the MadRiver team who we previously worked with on Plane. We can’t wait to see that creative energy once again as we bring Mutiny to life.”
Jason Statham fans are no doubt excited to see the action star back in his element and show off his unique skills in Mutiny.
But many will be curious to see what will happen with the sequel to this year’s blockbuster, The Beekeeper. Nothing has been announced about The Beekeeper 2 yet, but director David Ayer is already buzzing about the return, teasing what to expect from the sequel and whether we’ll learn more about the nefarious, mysterious organization known as the “Beekeepers.”
“Absolutely. I mean, I’m fascinated by the mythology of the beekeepers. We’ve cracked the door a little bit and seen what they can do. Now I want to know: who are they, where did they come from, and where are they going? And where did Jason come from in all this? There’s so much more to explore and it’s another opportunity to work with Jason.”
