The Mechanic Promo Trailer
Ace Showbiz has released a promo trailer for the upcoming movie The Mechanic, starring Jason Statham and Ben Foster.
The Mechanic is a remake of the 1972 action movie that starred the late Charles Bronson. Bronson played Arthur Bishop, a mob hit man who operates in a world of his own an uncompromising world where conventional rules of morality don’t apply and where one wrong move could cost him his life. He’s always worked alone but, as age catches up with him, Bishop takes on a competent and ruthless apprentice (Jan-Michael Vincent) and teaches him everything he knows. Together they become an unmatchable team of globetrotting killers until the pupil’s ruthlessness puts him on a collision course with his teacher.

Simon West to Direct Jason Statham in The Mechanic Remake
According to Variety, Jason Statham will star and Simon West is set to direct remake of the Charles Bronson hitman thriller “The Mechanic“
The story focuses on a highly-skilled but emotionally detached hitman – guess who – who is planning to retire when a young man asks to be trained up in the profession. Only problem is that this new apprentice is the son of one of the Mechanic’s victims, and may have more in mind than just a City and Guilds apprenticeship.
Filming is expected to start this Summer in Shreveport, Louisiana.
