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.
From 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.
People like 'Crank,' some people like 'Redemption.' I'm just happy to do things that satiate a different part of me, that test me a little bit.
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.
I'm not a method actor; I hope you know that!
When I go to the cinema I watch all different kinds of films.
I'm not as big a soccer fan as people might imagine, being British.
In Hollywood, people get reputations, just rumors that are passed down.
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.
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.
