CBS Films released the official trailer for Simon West‘s The Mechanic, starring Jason Statham. This is a remake of the 1972 Charles Bronson film though it seems that this new version is a bit more complex than the original one. It looks like a standard hitman action flick, but we’ll see when the film is released.
Watch the official theatrical trailer for Simon West’s The Mechanic:
An action-thriller centered on an assassin (Jason Statham) and a young man who becomes an apprentice.
The Mechanic was directed by British filmmaker Simon West, of memorable blockbusters like Con Air,The General’s Daughter, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and When a Stranger Calls. The screenplay was written by first-time feature writer Karl Gajdusek, whose only other writing credit is for the TV show “Dead Like Me”. This is a remake of The Mechanic from 1972 starring Charles Bronson and directed by Michael Winner. The Mechanic was picked up by CBS Films and will arrive in theaters starting on January 28th early next year.
