Here is your first look at my new film… Parkah.
I’m not sure Jason Statham could sound any less interested in introducing the trailer for his new movie Parker in which he co-stars with Jennifer Lopez.
Directed by Taylor Hackford (Ray), the film is based on the series of bestselling novels by Donald E. Westlake in which Statham plays the title character, a professional thief who lives by a personal code of ethics: Don’t steal from people who can’t afford it and don’t hurt people who don’t deserve it. But on his latest heist, his crew double crosses him, steals his stash, and leaves him for dead.
Determined to make sure they regret it, Parker tracks them to Palm Beach, playground of the rich and famous, where the crew is planning their biggest heist ever. Donning the disguise of a rich Texan, Parker takes on an unlikely partner, Leslie (Lopez), a savvy insider, who’s short on cash, but big on looks, smarts and ambition. Together, they devise a plan to hijack the score, take everyone down and get away clean.
Sound like fun? Well, give the trailer a watch and see what you think. Also expect a trailer for Broken City soon as I saw it last night before my screening of Taken 2.
Parker hits theaters on January 25.
