On January 25, 2013, Belfast Telegraph posted Statham: Homefront a Privilege . If you’re wondering why this news is appearing on the SZ, it’s because the movie is Homefront with a script by Sly, who is also on board as a producer. Here are a few tidbits from the article…
“He (Sly) actually wrote it for himself, which is, for me, an amazing privilege. To be handed a script by Sly that he wrote for himself, that he asked me to do. It’s like wow; this is a real career moment.
“This is an Academy Award-winning writer. Yeah, he wrote it for himself and he handed it to me, so for me it was a tremendous thing.”
“It’s got James Franco, Winona Ryder, Kate Bosworth, we have a great cast… I think you get quality actors and that’s all dependent on how good the material is.
“You get good writing and they all want to come and work.”
