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).

Inspired by @rwhite18's list. The saga begins with Nathan Drake and his mentor Victor "Sully" Sullivan navigating the jungles of Central America, where Nate proves his worth before a betrayal in Indonesia by Atoq Navarro leaves him hunting for the Eye of Indra. Years later, Nate follows clues from his ancestor’s coffin into the Amazon, discovering the cursed statue of El Dorado while romancing journalist Elena Fisher. The stakes rise as Nate, Sully, and Elena race against war criminal Zoran Lazarević to stop him from seizing the Cintamani Stone in the Himalayas, a journey that nearly costs Nate his life. Seeking answers about his past, Nate and Sully trek into the Arabian Desert to find the lost city of Ubar, confronting the secret society led by Katherine Marlowe and enduring hallucinogenic trials that test their loyalty. After retiring to a peaceful life with Elena, Nate is dragged back into the underworld by his brother Sam Drake, forcing him to confront his obsession while evading ruthless mercenary Nadine Ross and crime lord Rafe Adler during a final hunt for Henry Avery’s treasure. Even after Nate’s story concludes, the thrill of the chase lives on as Chloe Frazer teams up with Nadine in India to secure the Tusk of Ganesh, proving that the spirit of discovery never truly fades.
