10 Actors Who Really Need To Fire Their Agent

10. Jason Statham

The term 'Jason Statham Movie' has become a subgenre unto itself, with the 49 year-old consistently churning out B-level actioners on an almost annual basis for well over a decade with such bland and uninspiring names as Chaos, War, Blitz and Safe.

The former Commonwealth Games platform diver initially burst onto the scene as a streetwise geezer in the late 90s before eventually settling into his wheelhouse as the perma-scowling king of the mediocre $20m-$40m action flick. While generic beat-em-ups may be his bread and butter, Statham is capable of so much more as an actor.

The demented Crank movies showcased Statham's deadpan humor, screen presence and natural charisma, while his scene-stealing turn in Paul Feig's Spy showed a surprising knack for comedy. These talents are usually nowhere to be found in the constant stream of humorless, by-the-numbers genre movies that provide a steady paycheck and little else.

After a decade of being typecast, and with his popularity at an all-time high thanks to a key role in the Fast and Furious franchise, now would be the ideal time for Statham to branch out into different genres, especially as he approaches his 50th birthday.
