Jason Statham to steer Miramax film ‘The Bee Keeper’

By PTI

LOS ANGELES: Hollywood star Jason Statham is about to collaborate with studio Miramax for a 3rd function movie.

Titled “The Bee Keeper”, the brand new film has a spec script from author Kurt Wimmer, recognized for motion pictures corresponding to “Salt”, “Law Abiding Citizen”, “The Recruit” and “Street Kings”.

According to Deadline, the studio purchased the script for a seven-figure sum and is now on the lookout for a director to helm the challenge.

“The Bee Keeper” is being described as a “lightning-paced thriller deeply steeped in the mythology of Bee Keeping”.

Statham may also produce the challenge together with Wimmer and Miramax CEO Bill Block.

The film will begin manufacturing in 2022.

The British actor lately starred in Miramax’s “Wrath of Man”, directed by Guy Ritchie, which launched worldwide earlier this 12 months.

Statham and Ritchie are engaged on one other challenge, which can also be backed by Miramax.
