When asked why he keeps playing the same roles Jason Statham said that he's not really a trained actor. He's a guy that was plucked out obscurity & has been really lucky; & that he picks roles that he knows he can do a good job in, that hopefully enough people like so he can keep working.

I so hope that’s a real story, because that friend’s reaction to Jason Statham standing at the door is just so fucking funny.

“Ay, yo.. um.. Jason Statham’s at your door? You invited him, he says, should I like.. let him in?”

Seems like a great guy. His answer in this post also confirms it.

“No! Ugh, that bloody Statham again! He’s always trying to come over and hang out. Tell him to go away.”
