Jason Statham's Upcoming Thriller Movie Will Be His Version Of Denzel Washington's $573M Franchise

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Jason Statham's upcoming action thriller Levon's Trade could fill in the gap left behind by the end of a certain Denzel Washington franchise. The number of Jason Statham action franchises appears to be growing year by year. He's a regular among the ensemble of The Fast and the Furious saga and fronts his own series like The Meg or The Expendables.

Created by Michael Sloan , Richard Lindheim First Film The Equalizer Cast Denzel Washington , Edward Woodward , Queen Latifah While Levon Cade might be the sort of special forces badass Statham has played many times before, in the books, Cade is also a softspoken gent. His focus is on raising his daughter and while he can handle himself in a fight, he never goes looking for them.

Just like in the first Equalizer movie, Cade's mission pits him against a Russian gang, who soon begin hunting him. Just because Cade is fundamentally a good guy, that doesn't mean he can't transform into a ruthless killer when needed. He kills and tortures multiple people throughout the story, and is adept at improvising his way out of trouble. In contrast to McCall, Cade has no issue using guns when necessary either.

That means there is a wealth of material for a potential Levon's Trade sequel to pull from - assuming the original hits, of course. While the sort of modestly budgeted, R-rated action movies Statham made his name on waned during the 2010s, the success of The Beekeeper proves there is a willing audience for those types of movies in theaters. If Ayer and Statham can recapture the magic of their first collaboration, audiences could be seeing a lot more from Levon Cade in the near future.
