News: Jason Statham to Replace Shia in Transformers 4 & 5?
2011 | News
I’d really take this one lightly, as Jason Statham is famously dating our last Transformers heroine, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and the new Expendables is coming out – too much coincidence, Jason Statham’s involvement is likely a rumor! But just in case it’s not (covering our bases!
):
There does seem to be confirmation Shia LaBeouf won’t be returning as Sam Witwicky, but added to this puzzle. Variety is spreading a rumor that Jason Statham’s name has been mentioned as a potential new headliner, a move that would obviously change the structure of the stories from being about a snotty kid to being about a guy that shaves his head, greases up, takes his shirt off and drives really fast.
