Now Viewing: jason_stathamTag type: Character Tag refers to images referencing this British actor/athlete. He is a bald man with stubble on his chin. He was born on July 26, 1967, in Shirebrook, Derbyshire. He started off focusing on sports, doing sports like football, diving, and practicing martial arts. He first appeared on TV when he competed for England at the 1990 Commonwealth Games in the 10 metre, 3 metre, and 1 metre swimming competitions. After his brief sports career, he transitioned into modeling for the clothing brand, French Connection, and appearing in various music videos. While he was doing these odd jobs, he worked as a street seller in London. These experiences lead him to be introduced to British director Guy Ritchie who cast him in his debut film, Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels. The success of this film led to Statham frequently playing roguish characters throughout his film career and Statham would work with Ritchie on several of his subsequent crime films. Statham began appearing in American film shortly afterwards in various supporting roles, but he got his break as a leading man when he was cast as Frank Martin in The Transporter film series. His role as Frank made use of the martial arts training he received as a youth and turned Statham into a popular action film star. Since then, he has primarily played tough and hardened anti-heroes with formidable fighting skills. He has been married to model Rosie Huntington-Whitely since January 2016.
