Jason Statham (/ˈsteɪθəm/ STAY-thəm; born 26 July 1967) is an English actor and producer. He is known for portraying tough, gritty, or violent characters in various action thriller films and has been credited for leading the resurgence of action films during the 2000s and 2010s. By 2017, his films had grossed over £1.1 billion ($1.5 billion), making him one of the industry's most bankable stars. While working at local market stalls, Statham began practising Chinese martial arts, kickboxing, and karate recreationally in his youth. An avid footballer and diver, he was a member of Britain's national diving team and competed for England in the 1990 Commonwealth Games. Shortly after, he was asked to model for French Connection, Tommy Hilfiger, and Levi's in various advertising campaigns. Statham's history of working at market stalls inspired his casting in the Guy Ritchie crime films Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) and Snatch (2000). Both films were commercial hits, and they helped catapult Statham to stardom. He played supporting roles in the American action films Turn It Up (2000), Ghosts of Mars and The One (2001). From 2002 to 2008, he played the title role in the first three films in the Transporter film series (2002–2008), which solidified his status as an action star. In 2003, he appeared in the ensemble heist action film The Italian Job. He went on to play leading roles in the commercially successful films Crank (2006), The Bank Job (2008), The Mechanic (2011), Homefront (2013), Mechanic: Resurrection (2016), The Meg (2018), Wrath of Man (2021), Meg 2: The Trench (2023), and The Beekeeper (2024). Statham has also starred as Lee Christmas in the ensemble action film series The Expendables (2010–2023) and as Deckard Shaw in the Fast & Furious franchise (2013–2023), including the spin-off Hobbs & Shaw (2019), which he co-produced. His voice acting work includes the documentaries Thai Boxing: A Fighting Chance (2002), Truth in 24 (2008) and its 2012 sequel, and the animated film Gnomeo & Juliet (2011).

Set on Earth-4859699, a world where every fictional hero and villain coexist, Green Arrow vs The Punisher thrusts Star City into a bloody urban warzone. When Frank Castle, the ruthless vigilante known as The Punisher, follows the trail of notorious drug kingpin Kevin Young into Oliver Queen’s city, the streets erupt in chaos. Castle’s one-man war leaves a trail of corpses across the docks, warehouses, and back alleys—forcing Green Arrow to take notice. To Oliver, Castle’s brutal methods cross every moral line he’s sworn to uphold. But to Frank, Queen is just another costumed hypocrite standing in the way of justice. As the body count rises, both men are drawn into a relentless game of hunter and hunted. Green Arrow uses precision, stealth, and his arsenal of trick arrows to corner Castle, while the Punisher counters with military cunning, explosives, and unflinching brutality. Their violent clash exposes the corruption at the heart of Star City’s criminal empire—one that even Queen’s corporation has unknowingly funded. Torn between vengeance and virtue, Oliver must decide whether to uphold his code or embrace the darkness The Punisher represents. When justice becomes war, only one vigilante will walk out of Star City alive.
