Jason Statham Action Thriller ‘Mutiny’ Casts Roland Moller as Villain

by

As a longtime admirer of Jason Statham‘s action-packed performances, I must say that his upcoming projects have me absolutely thrilled! The man never fails to deliver high-octane thrills and jaw-dropping stunts, and it seems he’s showing no signs of slowing down.

As a die-hard film enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share that Jason Statham’s latest action-packed masterpiece, “Mutiny,” has concluded its shooting phase in the UK. Recently, some exciting details about who will challenge The Stath in this Lionsgate production have surfaced. According to Deadline, the Danish actor Roland Møller, known for his role in “Citadel,” will be my mirror image, so to speak, in “Mutiny.” Joining us on this adventure are Arnas Fedaravičius from “The White Lotus” and Adrian Lester, who graced our screens in “The Sandman.” Can’t wait to see these talents bring the story to life!

In the movie Mutiny, Jason Statham plays Cole Reed, a former military operative now working in private security. The plot revolves around the murder of his wealthy employer and Reed’s subsequent pursuit as he’s falsely accused. While on the run, Reed unearths a global conspiracy, continuing to fight and exact vengeance as only Statham can. As for Mads Mikkelsen (Møller), his character is yet to be fully revealed, but he will take on the role of the main antagonist. The roles of Fedaravičius and Lester are also being kept confidential, and though a specific release date hasn’t been announced, it is anticipated to premiere sometime next year.

It is established that the film “Mutiny” is helmed by director Jean-François Richet, who has a knack for action films. He’s previously directed movies like the 2005 remake of John Carpenter’s “Assault on Precinct 13,” as well as “Blood Father” in 2016 featuring Mel Gibson. His recent action success was “Plane,” released in 2023, where Gerard Butler played a pilot who lands in dangerous territory to save his passengers. The film received a 78% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and earned three times its production cost at the global box office. Given Statham’s action-packed career since 1998, it seems that he and Richet are a perfect match for a high-intensity adventure like “Mutiny.

Jason Statham Stars Next in a Film Written by Sylvester Stallone

With “Mutiny” now moving into post-production, let’s shift our focus to where we can catch Jason Statham next. He is set to appear in the upcoming sequel “Fast X – Part 2”, but before that, he will team up with David Harbour in the action-packed thriller titled “Levon’s Trade”. What makes this exciting? It was penned by none other than Sylvester Stallone and David Ayer, who will also take on the director role. Ayer has previously collaborated with Statham for this year’s successful film “The Beekeeper”, which grossed over $150 million worldwide.

As a supporter, I’m thrilled to share my anticipation for the upcoming movie, “Levon’s Trade,” which is based on Chuck Dixon’s 2014 novel of the same name. In this action-packed tale, Jason Statham portrays Levon Cade, a former black ops agent who’s enjoying a tranquil life with his daughter, working in construction. However, when his boss’s teenage daughter goes missing, he is compelled to come out of retirement and employ his unique set of skills to rescue her, while simultaneously uncovering a vast criminal conspiracy.

It’s clear that Statham is staying active and seems happier than ever these days. He graced our screens with no fewer than four action blockbusters in 2023. Although 2024 has been a bit sluggish due to the WGA-SAG/AFTRA strikes, it looks like next year will see a resurgence of form for this energetic 57-year-old actor.
