Jason Statham’s New Action Movie ‘Mutiny’ Directed by a Frenchman – First Look!

Featuring brawls with unexpected objects (this time a padlock and a hook), stunts, and car chases, Jason Statham fans will be thrilled to see him in action in “Mutiny,” directed by Jean-François Richet, whose trailer was just revealed.

After directing Mel Gibson in “Blood Father” and Gerard Butler in “Mayday,” the French filmmaker now brings another renowned action star to the forefront.

In “Mutiny,” Jason Statham plays Cole Reed, a former police officer who witnesses the murder of his billionaire boss. Wrongly accused of the crime, he boards a cargo ship to embark on a solitary crusade to avenge his death. However, he soon uncovers an international conspiracy.

Danish actor Roland Møller (Citadel) plays the villain, while Annabelle Wallis (Peaky Blinders, The Mummy), Lee Charles, Jason Wong, Ben Cartwright, Adrian Lester, and Arnas Fedaravicius round out the cast.

“Mutiny” is scheduled for release in theaters on August 19.
