More quotes by Jason Statham
People like to pigeonhole you.
Jason Statham
The insurance of working with a big, already successful franchise just gives you the chance to do other things on a more personal level.
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
I've come from nowhere, and I'm not shy to go back.

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 thing about the UK is we don't really make that many great movies.

I like to relax. Spend it with people that I've grown up with, or people that I care about, and just relax, sit around doing nothing or sitting on a beach.
Jason Statham
The fight training was very extensive, a lot of stretching, a lot of coordination of balance exercises.

Jason Statham
In Hollywood, people get reputations, just rumors that are passed down.
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
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
Action comedy, if you can get it right, it is, for me, a particularly brilliant genre. It really is.
Jason Statham
A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.
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
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
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
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 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
I think being a competitive diver for years helps you focus and dedicate yourself to what's needed.
