Jason Statham

I used to play a lot of racket sports, tennis and squash.

Jet was very busy. I've been inspired by a lot of his movies.

It's something I never dreamed I'd be doing, making movies.

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

And if people come up and say they like the movies you're in, it's a great compliment.

A lot of action movies today seem to have scenes that just lead up to the action.

If you got a good imagination, a lot of confidence and you kind of know what you are saying, then you might be able to do it. I know a lot of colorful characters at home that would make great actors.

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.
