You’ll never guess what Jason Statham used to do before he became a movie star

[Yoni Heisler]

I'm not sure if you could classify Jason Statham as an A-lister, but there's no denying the man is a bonafide movie star. The English actor first jumped on the radar for his role in the cult classic and Guy Ritchie-directed Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Following that, Statham appeared in Snatch, another Ritchie production.

Over the next few years, Statham, with his signature bald head and five o'clock shadow look, became something of an action star. In 2002, he appeared in The Transporter, which would go on to become a trilogy. He also starred in Crank, a bizarre yet enjoyable film about a poisoned hitman who needs to keep his adrenaline above a certain level in order to stay alive. Crank is basically the movie Speed, albeit with a man replacing the bus. As a quick aside, since we're already on the topic of movies, you'll definitely want to check out Blood Red Sky on Netflix. It's currently the #1 movie on Netflix and is a good watch.
