Jason Statham at the London premiere of ‘Safe’: would you hit it?

Here are some photos of Jason Statham at the London premiere of his latest shoot ‘em up film, Safe. I’m assuming the plot involves Jason running around, punching and shooting people, then grinding his teeth provocatively in a profile shot. You can read Bedhead’s review of the film here at Pajiba – beware, there are some plot spoilers! I mean, if you really go to see Statham films for plot.

Anyway, we get some requests for more coverage on all things Statham, so here you go – premiere photos. I wish he had taken off his sunglasses. He looks fine with the sunglasses and everything, but at some point on the red carpet, he should have taken them off so photographers could get a variety of photos. But! The man does know how to wear a suit. I wonder if his model girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley helps him in the wardrobe department?

Usually, I find myself struggling to see the appeal of The Statham. He’s the like the budget, British version of Bruce Willis in my mind, only Bruce has a history of turning in surprisingly solid, moving and gifted dramatic performances too, where Statham’s acting credibility is a bit light.

So… Jason Statham: would I, personally, hit it? Probably not. But I doubt he’d want me either. His ex-girlfriends are beautiful (Kelly Brook!) and his current squeeze is a Victoria’s Secret model. He likes ‘em young and leggy and pin-up-y. Which kills any attraction I would have for him. Still, more Statham for you ladies…

    Ummm….maybe for a good time, but not a long time.

  2. Jacq says:

    I’d hit it like a house on fire!

  3. Dave says:

    This guy and his movies, is the equivalent in this decade to Chuck Norris, Van Damme, Lundgren, Arnold and Sylvester from the 80s/90s.. always the same crap.

    No plot, no dialogues, just action. He should stick with Guy Ritchi. Instead doing of crappy action movies. He has some potential.

    • BlackMamba says:

      I love all these guys you just mentioned…”Cobra” with Stalone is one of my favorites :). They`re all stupid but for some reason whenever there is one of those movies on TV I always watch, maybe because they remind me of my childhood.

      • Maria_Spain says:

        XD me too,i was in love of all when younger,got many pics and magazines about them specially van damme (mea culpa).
        sometimes i need a good action movie with nothing to think about after watched it.

    • Maguita says:

      I loove those movies! Especially the cheesy violent ones written by Luc Besson.

      Jason gives good action. His movies are mostly B-list, but in a very good way.

      Still cannot get over that scene in CRANK where he is standing up on his motorcycle in nothing else but a Hospital gown and a big hard-on 😀

    I have NEVER seen a photo of him smiling – he looks good when he does. Seems like an adult male, not a wimpy boy. English guys love them some suits, I doubt RHW needs to dress him.

    I do agree – he does seem like the budget UK version of Bruce Willis.

    I’ve never seen one of his movies and I doubt I ever will (unless, in desperation, on a plane!)

  5. Astrid says:

    Yup!

  6. marie says:

    thank you! I knew he reminded me of someone-I just couldn’t figure out who..

  7. Cathy says:

    I wouldn’t throw him outta bed. He’s handsome in a different kind of way. Yeah, I’d do him.

  8. BlackMamba says:

    I LOVE Jason Statham and yes he keeps making the same movie over and over but I like watching him anyways.

  9. Zelda says:

    Yep. So would. He seems like he’d be great with the angry sex.

    And his body is.

    Yeah, I didn’t even need to finish that sentence.

  10. NeNe says:

    Absolutely!!!

  11. Lindy says:

    Nope. Does nuthin’ for me! I tend to like my guys slightly nerdy and intelligent looking. Beefcake = boring for me.

  12. Lem says:

    I’m in.
    I prefer Turkish over crank but will certainly take Frank. Either way he’s a handsome rob.

  13. TheOriginalKitten says:

    Ew. Not even after 18 shots of Jager topped off by a heavy dose of Rohypnol.

  14. skipper says:

    Totally.

  15. Bethany says:

    YES. He’s been on my Freebies list since Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. And even though I’m not a tall, leggy model, I’m the same age as Rosie Huntington-Whitley, which means I’ve got 1/3 of what he’s looking for. Now all I need is to meet him somewhere…

  16. phlyfiremama says:

    Totally. I’m still crushing on Turkish~ Guy Ritchie makes great films.

  17. Daisy says:

    He looks right handsome and happy at the premiere. Happy for a nice change. Seems when he’s with the stick insect, he’s frowning. I saw the movie, and it’s a typical American movie with bad acting, thin writing, but it has the Statham, and that’s the only reason I went to see it, and the only thing good about it. The British film, Blitz is still one of Statham’s best movies, where his character is much deeper and more thought out than in Safe. Yakin (the writer/director of Safe.) doesn’t seem to understand character development much. He thinks if you write a bunch of back story for someone that this is the same thing as giving them depth.

  18. dd says:

    YUP.He seems like a REAL man, you know?
    He knows what he wants, and he’s good at it. I think that RHW and him are a very lovely cupele!

  19. TheOriginalVictoria says:

    If he hits that Bosley Institute with a passion, we could work that shit out on a daily basis.

    I loved him in Snatch and Transporter. I just watched without my glasses so I wouldn’t have to see his hair clearly. Shivers.

  20. barb says:

    I used to really dig him. And then one day I saw an interview with him. Yep, the attraction dulled quite a bit after that.

  21. Carrie says:

    THANK YOU!! I would, in a heartbeat. I don’t care about the quality of his movies as long as I still get to look at him 😛

  22. Maria_Spain says:

    no doubt about it 8)

  23. jesstar says:

    Oh yes. HARD!!!

  24. mandyfan says:

    YES. over and over again.

  25. SFRowGuy says:

    <3 <3

  26. Rux says:

    Ugh, the dude is barely five feet tall sorry I am 5’10 and I can’t find a man shorter than me attractive. Oh and I hate his gummy smile and his piss poor acting.

  27. Stacia says:

    NOPE! Not attracted to him physically. Maybe his personality could win me over, but just going
    on looks…Nope.

  28. the original bellaluna says:

    Oh yes! Hard, consistently, and until we both passed out from exhaustion and/or dehydration. (Even though he’s shorter than my tastes run.)

  29. cake says:

    I would hit it. Every day. For the rest of my life.

    I don’t normally care much for celebrities or actors, but damn, that man makes me hot.

  30. Valentina says:

    Hit. That. Hard.

  31. Miz says:

    He looks and acts like an arrogant ass. For some reason he seems to think his shit doesn’t stink. I like action movies but I’m tired of this old guy already and hanging with younger, leggier Victoria Secret models every few years is not going to rub off on his old face.

  32. foozy says:

    any day!!!! love love love

  33. Anoni Mus says:

    I would certainly hit that… he’s hot, the hottest balding guy around.

    But it would be purely physical, because I don’t think there’s too much upstairs, you know?

    Very refreshing to see him smile, I’m loving the last picture.

  34. Mourning the Death of Music says:

    I’d hit it like the fist of an angry god!

  35. Amy says:

    He might not be the most classically handsome guy I’ve ever seen, but he’s super sexy.

    Even if he wouldn’t want me in a million years (with my stumpy legs and non-model looks), I’d so hit it (in my dreams).

  36. ANON says:

    ALL. NIGHT. LONG.
