Jason Statham in Death Race
Source: The Hollywood Reporter
English actor Jason Statham (Crank, "The Transporter" films, The Italian Job) is in the futuristic thriller Death Race.
The Universal Pictures project is a remake of Roger Corman's 1975 cult classic Death Race 2000, which starred David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone. It was set in a dystopian America in which the president presides over an ultraviolent road race from New York to Los Angeles. One of the ways that drivers score points is by mowing down innocent bystanders using their heavily armed cars.
Paul W.S. Anderson (Alien vs. Predator, Resident Evil) is writing and directing the remake.
Tom Cruise and his production partner, Paula Wagner, will produce. |

Irgendwie hat Jason Statham einen Faible für bekloppte Filme.

Tyrese Gibson Gets Behind Wheel in 'Deathrace 3000'
Director Paul W.S. Anderson revealed to MTV that the 28-year-old Transformers and 2 Fast 2 Furious star Tyrese Gibson is set to take to the road once more — this time behind the wheel — as a contestant in his Death Race 3000, an update of the 1975 classic starring David Carradine and Sylvester Stallone. Tyrese joins previously confirmed cast member Jason Statham — two tough dudes about to get their clock cleaned by the most unlikely of opponents, Anderson announced … Joan Allen. “She kicks the most ass out of everybody,” Anderson smiled, revealing for the first time that the three-time Oscar nominee will join the cast as well. The film, a “faithful remake,” said Anderson, follows a group of contestants on a cross-country race who score points for running down pedestrians. It is set for release in 2008. |

Frühe Mini - Kritik:
| Quote: |
If you head on over to my Official B-D Blog you can read my thoughts on Paul W.S. Anderson's (Event Horizon, Resident Evil) Death Race remake, which test screened in Los Angeles yesterday. This is by no means an official review as it is far from complete, but it is my initial reaction to the movie as a whole. Good, bad? Find out. But I will say this... the audience LOVED it.
I think that DEATH RACE is one of Paul's better movies, only he ruins it with his atrocious and nauseating camerawork. The movie itself is filled with awesome races, loads of explosions and tons of blood. But there is still the problem of the screenplay, which features ridonkulous dialogue, illogical characters/situations and cliche direction.
If you thought the directing in BOURNE SUPREMACY was bad, just wait until you see this hunk of bologna. I don't get motion sick in theaters, CLOVERFIELD didn't bother me and neither did DIARY OF THE DEAD or BLAIR WITCH PROJECT, but DEATH RACE made me want to vomit all over the place. The camera work was over-the-top ridiculous and I can't believe the producers didn't step in after seeing some dailies and force him to tighten his shots up a bit. Even through the sh-t screenplay I could have found something special in this film (kind of like DOOMSDAY), but I couldn't see anything!
Afterwards one of my friends sat in on the focus group where he said 25 out of 27 people liked the movie, including himself. People liked the action, the opening and the ending a lot. Yet people were constantly confused and didn't get what was going on.
(...)
I really wanted to like the movie, but I thought it sucked, which isn't all that surprising. The biggest bonus points go to Anderson for using a Nine Inch Nails song from Broken, which was so rad to hear in a feature film. In terms of W.S. I'd say this is his third best movie behind EVENT HORIZON and RESIDENT EVIL. Car racing fans will dig it, that's a guarantee - and from the sound of it so will teenage girls. |

FSK prüfte Actionfilm mit Jason Statham
Da es mittlerweile wieder verstärkt vorkommt, dass Unrated Fassung aus den USA nicht mehr in Deutschland erscheinen - aktuell betrifft das z.B. Mirrors oder The Fighters, ist es erfreulich, dass Paul W.S. Andersons gelungener Actioner Death Race zumindest schon mal in der Extended Fassung von der FSK geprüft wurde. Wie auch die Kinofassung erhält der Film hier "keine Jugendfreigabe".
Man kann also davon ausgehen, dass der Film in dieser Fassung auch auf DVD und Blu-Ray erscheinen wird.
