Whatever their current work and their role in people's lives, Statham's characters are always assassins or rogue agents who are trying out a different lifestyle before they're forced out of retirement when someone they care about is in danger. To that end, some of Jason Statham's best action movie characters are from films that have a profession in the title itself.

The John Wickfranchise revolutionized the action genre with its signature "Gun-Fu" fighting style, but Jason Statham almost stole it a few years earlier. Beginning with the release of the eponymous film in 2014, the series tells the story of a retired assassin who is pressed back into action after criminals destroy his newfound happy life. Though the simple revenge plot has been done a million times before, it was director Chad Stahelski's blend of martial arts and gunplay that made the action sequences jump off the screen.
