Jason Statham gets to step into Charles Bronson’s shoes in The Mechanic, a reimagining of the 1972 Bronson movie of the same name (which was directed by Michael Winner), and now a red band, more violent trailer for the film has surfaced. Statham plays an elite hitman who befriends a young man (Ben Foster) who wants to learn the trade. However it becomes clear that the apprentice may have an ulterior motive, which puts both their lives in danger. Directed by Simon West (Con Air) It looks like Statham’s back to doing what he does best – kicking-ass and shooting people in OTT choreographed ways. The film hits UK cinemas on January 28th, 2011.
