Jason Statham To Play Himself in Meta Action-Comedy From 'Bullet Train' Director
Jason Statham and veteran action director David Leitch are teaming up for the meta comedy, Jason Statham Stole My Bike.
collider.comI can share what’s publicly known right now: there have been reports in February 2026 about a meta-action comedy titled Jason Statham Stole My Bike, with Jason Statham reportedly playing himself and David Leitch directing. Several outlets described the project as an indie-to-major-studio collaboration with a budget around $80 million and noted teaser coverage and early market interest, but plot details remain under wraps. If you’d like, I can summarize what multiple outlets are saying and flag areas where details are uncertain.
Latest notes you should know:
- The project is described as meta or self-referential, echoing trends from recent celebrity-led humor films.
- There is broad coverage suggesting development is moving forward (casting, direction, and market interest), but official confirmations and a firm release timeline have not been widely published.
- Reactions and rumors vary by outlet; some focus on concept and potential stylistic approach, others on budget and production logistics.
If you want, I can pull together a brief timeline of reported announcements and compile a checklist of what to verify as more information becomes available. Would you like me to do that?
