You don’t change a winning team.
Jason Statham and Guy Ritchie will do it again with Dogfighta new action film announced by Netflix. Described as a “stylish revenge thriller”, the feature film will take place in the criminal underworld of London. No additional plot details have been revealed yet.
As usual, the two men will combine functions: Ritchie will write, direct and produce the film, while Statham will play the main role.
Filming is due to begin in the UK in early 2027.
Production will be handled by Black Bear Pictures, already behind several recent Guy Ritchie films, but also by the director’s and his actor’s respective companies, Toff Guy Films and Punch Palace Productions.
Ritchie and Statham will serve as producers alongside Ivan Atkinson, a longtime associate of the filmmaker, and John Friedberg for Black Bear.
This new collaboration continues a relationship that dates back to 1998, when Guy Ritchie gave Jason Statham his very first film role in Scams, Crimes and Botany (Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels). The duo then found themselves on Snatch, Revolver, An angry man (Wrath of Man) And Operation Fortune: Ruse of War (Operation Fortune: Ruse of War).
The two men have just finished another project: Viva La Madnessa thriller adapted from the novel by JJ Connolly, sequel to Layer Cake. Announced last year, the film does not yet have a release date.
Dogfight will therefore be their 7th collaboration. Netflix has not yet announced a date.
