‘Jason Statham Stole My Bike’ Sets August 2027 Release Date!!

2026 hasn’t been an ideal year for Jason Statham so far, despite his first and only movie so far coming out of the gates strong with some of his best reviews in years. Statham starred in one of the first action thrillers of 2026 with Shelter, which follows a former high-level operative who is drawn back out of the shadows when his past catches up to him after saving a girl from certain death. Shelter bombed at the box office with $53 million globally against a $50 million budget, and the film was quietly dumped on Starz last weekend. Statham will have a shot at redemption this August when he returns to the action genre for a new thriller, Mutiny, and he’ll also star in a sequel to The Beekeeper in early 2027.

Despite moving into a later stage of his career, though, Statham is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Earlier this year, it was reported that Statham was teaming up with David Leitch for a new action thriller, Jason Statham Stole My Bike. Statham will play himself in the film, which is described as a comedic action blockbuster, but plot details are still being kept under wraps for now. News broke this afternoon that Black Bear, the distributor for Jason Statham Stole My Bike, is bringing the film to theaters on August 6, 2027, positioning Statham to have back-to-back years with late-summer blockbusters. Production for the film is expected to wrap at the end of this week, which will leave the post-production team well over a year to be sure the editing and visual effects are up to a high standard.

What Other Movies Has David Leitch Directed?

David Leitch worked with Jason Statham on one of the most famous action movies of his career, the 2019 Fast & Furious spin-off, Hobbs & Shaw (co-starring Dwayne Johnson). Leitch made his directorial debut in 2017 working with Charlize Theron on Atomic Blonde, and he followed it only one year later with Deadpool 2, the superhero sequel starring Ryan Reynolds and Josh Brolin. He has only directed two movies since Hobbs & Shaw — in 2022, he worked with Brad Pitt on Bullet Train, and two years later he teamed with Ryan Gosling for The Fall Guy. Leitch is also directing a new Gears of War movie.
