Despite being together since 2010, the couple is not officially married.

Early Life

Born on July 26, 1967, in Shirebrook, Derbyshire, England, Statham grew up in Great Yarmouth, a coastal town. His mother, Eileen, was a dancer while his father, Barry, dealt in street merchandise. In his youth, Statham played football at his local grammar school. Prior to gaining fame as an action star, he was an accomplished diver, having been a member of Britain’s National Diving Squad for twelve years. He also represented the British Olympic team at the 1988 Seoul Olympics and competed for England at the 1990 Commonwealth Games. After experiencing some setbacks in diving competitions, Statham decided to shift his focus to acting and modeling.

Acting Career

Jason’s acting career ignited in 1998 when an agent discovered him. Initially, he did some modeling for the clothing brand French Connection before being cast by Guy Ritchie in “Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels,” which grossed over $80 million and marked the beginning of his Hollywood journey. He teamed up again with Ritchie for the 2000 film “Snatch,” appearing alongside Brad Pitt and Benicio del Toro, which also earned over $80 million at the box office. Throughout the early 2000s, he featured in several films including “The One” and “Ghosts of Mars,” but it was the role in “The Transporter” that truly established his name in the industry. He performed all his own stunts and trained in karate, Wing Chun kung fu, and kickboxing to prepare. The success of “The Transporter” led to two sequels, a reboot, and a TV series. In 2005, Ritchie cast him again in “Revolver,” although this project failed with critics and at the box office. However, his work in “The Bank Job” and “Death Race” in 2008 received considerable acclaim, further solidifying his status as an action star.

Statham took part in “The Expendables” in 2010, a collaborative action film featuring Sylvester Stallone and Mickey Rourke, which debuted at #1 across the U.S., UK, China, and India. The following year, his role in “The Mechanic” received positive feedback. He later returned to British cinema with the police drama “Blitz.” Around this period, Statham also starred in “The Italian Job” and “Cellular,” portraying the main antagonist. His next movie, “Killer Elite,” was critically condemned and resulted in a negative financial outcome. In 2012, he reprised his role in the “Expendables” sequel and appeared in “The Expendables 3” in 2014. Despite poor reviews, the sequels were box office hits. Statham showcased his comedic skills in the action-comedy “Spy,” which featured a star-studded cast including Jude Law, Melissa McCarthy, and Rose Byrne. For his performance, he earned a nomination for a Critic’s Choice Award for best comedic actor.

“Mechanic: Resurrection,” the sequel to his 2011 movie “The Mechanic,” premiered in late 2016, achieving impressive financial success with over $109.4 million in worldwide earnings. In February 2017, he appeared alongside Gal Gadot in a Wix.com commercial for Super Bowl LI, which garnered more than 22 million user impressions. Although “Spy 2” was announced in 2018, director Paul Feig mentioned a lack of interest from the studio regarding the project. In “The Meg,” Statham took on the lead role of Captain Jonas Taylor in an action horror film that debuted in August 2018.

Additionally, Statham has participated in three films from the “Fast and Furious” franchise and reprised his character Deckhard Shaw in “Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw.” His performance received critical acclaim, and the movie achieved significant commercial success, ranking as the tenth highest-grossing film of 2019. He made a return to the franchise in “F9” in 2021 and “Fast X” in 2023. Also in 2023, he stepped back into his role as Jonas Taylor in “Meg 2: The Trench.”

Personal Life

Since 2010, Jason has been in a relationship with model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. The couple got engaged in 2016 and became parents to their first son in 2017. In February 2022, they welcomed a daughter. Their family resides in Beverly Hills.

In 2014, Statham earned a place in the International Sports Hall of Fame.

Advocating for stunt performers, Statham pushed for their recognition at the Academy Awards in 2015, arguing that their skills are often overlooked. In his leisure time, Jason enjoys activities such as rock climbing, windsurfing, wakeboarding, and jet skiing.

Real Estate

In 2009, Jason purchased an oceanfront property in Malibu, California, for $10.6 million. He sold this residence in January 2020 for $18.5 million.

He bought a home in Hollywood Hills from Ben Stiller in 2011 for $7.3 million, later selling it in 2015 for $9.2 million to Johnny Galecki from “The Big Bang Theory.” This home was previously owned by the iconic session drummer Hal Blaine.

In 2015, Jason and Rosie invested $2.7 million in a house located above the Sunset Strip. They listed this renovated property for $7 million in 2020. Their primary residence is a mansion that cost $13 million situated just down the road in Beverly Hills.
