Did you Know these 3 Things about Jason Statham? #nablopomo #blogher #atthemovies
Did you know that a stuntman who was working on “The Expendables 2” starring Jason Statham and Bruce Willis, etc. died from an explosion while they were shooting this movie in Bulgaria?
Yep. Another stuntman was also hospitalized for injuries he suffered from the same explosion.
Did you know that Jason Statham may help Michael Bay extend the “Transformers” film franchise?
According to Screencrave, Statham will be taking a lead role in the fourth and fifth installments of “Transformers,” since Shia Labeouf has had enough of heading up this action series. However, MTV says it’s just a rumor since no offer has been made to “The Transporter” actor. I guess we’ll have have to wait to learn how all of this pans out.
Did you know that Jason Statham does not seem to be an advocate for any one specific charitable cause?
He did however, sign a “Killer Elite” movie poster for The Autograph Store in September. This poster is among many other items that The Autograph Store offers in silent auctions to raise money for several of their partner charities, including the Susan G. Komen for the Cure, United Way, National Multiple Sclerosis Society and the Animal Humane Society. The charity fundraising company must either be doing a good job or have a special place in Statham's heart, because he also signed a movie poster for them back in January while promoting "The Mechanic."
So, would YOU watch another “Transformers” sequel if Jason Statham revamped the franchise?
Just curious!

Jason Statham unfortunately for me is a one trick pony. That said, he does seem to appear in a few movies that I really like, The Italian Job as an example, but I dont he fits the Transformers franchise at all. I think it would be a serious come down for the series. Perhaps it has run its course now?
"H" to the "yeah!" Statham is a great action star, and anything with him in it is always fun to watch. If he does take the reins in Transformers 4 & 5, let's hope Michael Bay tones down the quick-cut action scenes and nails down a good, coherent script. Transformers 3 was terrible. I could barely get through a single viewing, and only got the blu-ray to complete the trilogy.
