He’s going to burn this place to the ground! Jason Statham is back and ‘hotter’ than ever. The action-connoisseur is here with another power-packed film to keep fans at the edge of their seats. The Beekeeper starring Statham, is all set to make its digital premiere in India this 26th April exclusively on Lionsgate Play. The Hunger Games darling – Josh Hutcherson also showcases his not-so-chocolate boy side as the ‘unhinged’ Derek Danforth in this adrenaline fuelled thriller.
Directed by David Ayer, The Beekeeper follows Adam Clay, on a road to vengeance when someone close to him is exploited by. However, as the plot unfolds, we learn that Clay’s not just good at extracting honey. Get ready for some scintillating sequences, deadly showdowns and all things iconically Statham only on Lionsgate Play.
Talking about his character, Jason Statham said, “What we know is, Clay has an incredible skill set. He’s almost like a super soldier that is there to protect society. When society can’t protect itself, he’s the person, a Beekeeper, that comes in to recreate the equilibrium. That’s what Adam Clay really stands for – he is one of these guys that doesn’t really exist. He’s almost like this ghost that comes in and course corrects.”
Adding on, Director David Ayer said, “He’s not running around with a weapon all the time. It’s just one tool of many that he uses. He may get a gun and take it apart and turn it into a stabbing weapon or a club. It was almost the idea that a beekeeper has hands like a magician. You know that he can do anything.”
