‘Jason Statham Stole My Bike’: David Leitch’s Action-Comedy Sets Summer 2027 Release

The action-comedy keeps plot details secret while continuing Statham’s long-running partnership with Black Bear, after his films topped $8 billion worldwide.

  • On Thursday, Black Bear announced that director David Leitch's action-comedy 'Jason Statham Stole My Bike' will hit North American theaters on August 6, 2027, with principal photography wrapping this week.
  • Starring as a fictionalized version of himself, Jason Statham showcases comedic skills reminiscent of his CIA field agent role in 'Spy,' with screenplay by Alison Flierl and Scott Chernoff.
  • Punch Palace Productions, Beryllium Entertainment, and 87North produce the film alongside John Friedberg for Black Bear, continuing the collaboration that recently completed Guy Ritchie's 'Viva La Madness.'
  • Leitch, known for directing 'John Wick,' 'The Fall Guy,' and 'Bullet Train,' called the film 'the greatest film title of all time,' confirming it will carry a PG-13 rating.
  • With a career box office surpassing $8 billion, Statham balances this meta-comedy with forthcoming projects including 'Mutiny' and 'The Beekeeper 2,' marking a return to his underutilized comedic style.
