Look out, Mark Strong - a new challenger for smoothest boy has emerged.

Jason Statham is good at many things - mostly punching, kicking, and delivering one-liners in a deliciously '80s way - but one thing he's never been praised for is his artistic prowess.

Clearly, he doesn't give a single hoot, as he spent his 2023 appearing in two of the biggest, dumbest movies of the year.

Meg 2: The Trench put The Stath back into a tight wetsuit to battle those big bad mega-sharks all over again. The first Meg movie was enjoyable if you managed to switch off every single functioning part of your brain, and guess what? The same can be said of the sequel.

Speaking of sequels, Statham was also back for another Expendables project. Alongside Sylvester Stallone, Megan Fox, and 50 Cent among others, the gruff Brit shot, stabbed, and gurned his way through an hour-and-a-half of ridiculous action nonsense, with the charm of this over-the-top series long gone.

But you know what? Good for him. Statham worked out what he was good at a long time ago and some people absolutely adore these trashy action romps.

Long may his star shine as brightly as his beautiful shaven head.
