According to sources close to the production, the 57-year-old actor was performing a high-speed stunt when the sequence went tragically wrong, resulting in critical injuries. Emergency responders rushed Statham to a nearby hospital, where he remains in intensive care.
Statham, known for his death-defying roles in films like The Transporter, The Expendables, and Fast & Furious, has always performed many of his own stunts, earning a reputation as one of Hollywood’s toughest actors. However, this latest incident has left fans and colleagues heartbroken, with many taking to social media to express their support.
“Jason is a fighter, and we’re all praying for his recovery,” said longtime collaborator and director Guy Ritchie. “He’s one of the most dedicated professionals I’ve ever worked with.”
Production on the untitled project has been halted indefinitely as the film industry rallies behind the beloved star. Doctors have not yet released an official statement on his condition, but insiders say the next 48 hours will be crucial.
