More quotes by Jason Statham
It's something I never dreamed I'd be doing, making movies.
Jason Statham
Jet was very busy. I've been inspired by a lot of his movies.
Jason Statham
I think being a competitive diver for years helps you focus and dedicate yourself to what's needed.
Jason Statham
I'm not a method actor I hope you know that!
Jason Statham
[On performing in action movies] I've spent all those years learning how to do certain skills, and then that competitive spirit kicks in and you want to do the stunts. Basically, it's the the male competitive ego at work.
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
Once you expose your private life, if you give one little bit, the floodgates are open and everyone's got a free range for you.
Jason Statham
People take chances every now and then, and you don't want to disappoint them.
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 been unfortunate enough to be working, and recovering from a few injuries now and again.
Jason Statham
Every sequel needs to be bigger and better.
Jason Statham
Well, I'm used to rubbing shoulders with crooks and criminals.
Jason Statham
Every actor has a strength, and sometimes you just respond to things that you see yourself better at. I'm aware of what I can and can't do.
Jason Statham
I know, a lot of the films I've done, it's obvious I'm going to beat up six guys and just walk out the door. There's not a lot of motivating factors - it's just action for the sake of action.
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
A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.
Jason Statham
Without doing the big blockbusters, I wouldn't be able to find the money to go after little projects that I want to do.
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 like heist movies. I like action movies that set all the elements into one and a chance to do something that comes from a great stable of writing.
Jason Statham
The fight training was very extensive, a lot of stretching, a lot of coordination of balance exercises.
