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.
