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).

After the events of "No Way Home," Peter Parker is suffering depression, because Aunt May died, he lives in a crummy apartment, and nobody in the world knows who Peter Parker is anymore (the Avengers, Dr Strange, even Ned and MJ), and Ned and MJ's lives seem to be better without remembering him. And even worse J. Jonah Jameson of DailyBugle.net is labeling him a total menace. Some of New York considers him a hero, while the rest agrees with Jameson. At one point, the Prowler brings down a billboard and Spidey rescues civilians from being crushed, but the next day, news footage looks like Spidey destroyed the billboard HIMSELF! Jameson wants Spiderman to be stopped once and for all. He bails a man named Mac Gargan. The latter was a former private eye who was arrested for bribery and assault. Considering him the best, Jameson hires Gargan to spy on Spidey and know his weakness. Wanting more of the upper hand, Jameson hastily submits Gargan the subject of a somewhat unstable experiment, which grants him the abilities of a scorpion, including armor with an articulating and deadly stinger. Scorpion and Spidey fight, but Spidey prevails. Scorpion ends up going insane from the Scorpion poison and vows to kill both Spidey and Jameson, whom he blames for his freakish transformation. The one Avenger who serves as the mentor of the story is Bruce Banner/Hulk, who helps create an antidote when Spidey gets stung.
