British hottie Jason Statham stars with Amy Smart in the action film “Crank” about a hit man trying to settle a score. I loved him in “Snatch,” “The Italian Job,” and even “The Transporter,” and from the trailer this looks like a slick and entertaining film.

Statham is also revising his role as “Handsome Rob” in a sequel to “The Italian Job” to come out in 2008. It’s called “The Brazilian Job,” and Charlize Theron, Mark Wahlberg, Mos Def and Seth Green have all signed on.

Here are pictures of Statham in the movie with Amy Smart. “Crank” is out August 1st.
