More quotes by Jason Statham
Every sequel needs to be bigger and better.
Jason Statham
I endured many weeks of it, but I had a big background in martial arts and fighting as a kid, so kind of all the problems got brushed away and I was ready.
Jason Statham
People take chances every now and then, and you don't want to disappoint them.
Jason Statham
Well, I'm used to rubbing shoulders with crooks and criminals.
Jason Statham
Some of my favorite movies are action movies. You want something good to say. That comes from good writing. But writing is not a skill I possess, unfortunately.
Jason Statham
You only get one shot in your life and you might as well push yourself and try things. There's so many interesting aspects of making a movie the costume department, the set design, the casting itself, the locations. It's a great, great thing to be involved in if you have the headspace for it, and I do. Try anything once.
Jason Statham
Action comedy, if you can get it right, it is, for me, a particularly brilliant genre. It really is.
Jason Statham
It's not like I'm dying to do work that's taken seriously, and I'm not looking to become a thespian. It's not what I'm looking for I'm just looking to do quality work.
Jason Statham
A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.
Jason Statham
Usually I'm trying to work with people that I've worked with before, so we have a certain amount of know-how and what we're going to do together.
Jason Statham
Your body is like a piece of dynamite. You can tap it with a pencil all day, but you'll never make it explode. You hit it once with a hammer: Bang! Get serious. Do 40 hard minutes, not an hour and half of nonsense. It's so much more rewarding.
Jason Statham
When I'm getting ready for a movie, let's just say my diet is The Antisocial Diet. I don't go to restaurants. I don't eat what I really want to eat. I don't eat much. I eat small things frequently. Lots of protein and greens. And I don't eat with people, because there's a tendency to get social and then to overeat.
Jason Statham
I suppose that's the European way, dangerous and hairy.
Jason Statham
I'm not fixed in any genre. I love all kinds of films. The essential thing is you have to have good material. If you have the filmmaker, and the material, and the script is good, you can start from there.
Jason Statham
I've come from nowhere, and I'm not shy to go back.
Jason Statham
A lot of actors are frustrated because they want to do things that are different and test themselves. Character actors are always looking for something the opposite of what they did.
Jason Statham
And it was a great experience, you know, to travel the world and compete at a certain level. It teaches you discipline, focus, and certainly keeps you out of trouble.
Jason Statham
I'm not as big a soccer fan as people might imagine, being British.
Jason Statham
I think that's as far as you have to think, everything happens as a coincidence. It either happens or it doesn't. It's hard to map out a strategic plan by saying, 'If I do that, that's going to get me to the next level.' I think that's the wrong way to go into movies as an actor. It doesn't happen for me that way.
Jason Statham
People like to pigeonhole you.
