Perhaps inspired by the Bourne franchise proving that the loss of your long-term star isn't necessarily fatal to plans for another instalment, film audiences will be treated to their first Jason Statham-less Transporter film when Legacy is released on June 19th. Taking the role of the seemingly invincible protagonist who'll deliver anything anywhere if the price is right is Game Of Thrones star Ed Skrein who, after apparently ditching his rap career, finds himself cast both here and in the upcoming Deadpool movie. Thor actor Ray Stevenson also finds himself with a role to play, as this part-reboot, part-continuation of the series lines up for another three films. There's not much plot to go on so far - whether that's because there isn't much of one full stop is open to debate - but the setting has at least been confirmed as Paris with a femme fatal and Russian traffickers involved somehow.
