Jason Statham Talks Expendable 3, Homefront & More

On January 15, 2013, Collider posted an update with Jason Statham.  In it Statham talked about Homefront [written by Sly], Expendables 3 and more.  Here are some tidbits…

Homefront is a film that Sylvester Stallone wrote for himself actually.  So, to have a screenplay presented to me by him that he was intending to star in himself was a career point for me.  I said, “Wow!”  He’s a great writer and it’s a really, really cool story.  It’s based on a book written by Chuck Logan called Homefront.  He adapted it to suit me.  It was like a tailor-made suit and Sly did all the sewing.  Fantastic!

Did Sly talk to you at all about Expendables 3 and casting?  Statham:  No.  I saw him on stage at the Golden Globes and he gave me the look.  He went “Whoo!”  He hasn’t said anything but I hear rumors.  I should never go with rumors because they’re often not correct, but I hear Jackie Chan might be coming to the party and that would make me very happy because I do like Jackie Chan.
