Reports say Jason Statham is set to play a version of “Jason Statham” in a meta action-comedy titled “Jason Statham Stole My Bike,” with David Leitch attached to direct.

TL;DR
Statham doing a self-parody, big-stunts version of himself could be a blast, but it’s still early packaging, with key details not locked yet.

Key Details

  • Reporting describes an action-comedy titled “Jason Statham Stole My Bike” with Statham playing a version of himself.
  • David Leitch is attached to direct, reuniting with Statham after prior collaborations.
  • The project is being packaged/marketed as a big-budget, self-aware action-comedy.
  • A release date and full supporting cast have not been publicly finalized in the reporting.
  • Final financing and distribution could shift as the project is sold/placed.

Breakdown
This reads like the “lean into the brand” lane: Statham’s tough-guy persona is the joke, but the movie still gets to deliver the stunts and set pieces people actually show up for.

David Leitch being attached is a signal about tone and scale, slick action, big choreography, and a wink at the audience without turning it into a full spoof.

The main thing to keep in mind: this kind of project can sound locked in while it’s still being packaged. Cast, distributors, and release windows often come later, and any of that can change once a deal is finalized.

What to Watch Next

  • Official casting announcements for the supporting roles.
  • Where it lands (studio or streamer) once distribution is set.
  • A more concrete timeline: start date, locations, and release window.
