British action icon Jason Statham and Guy Ritchie, the filmmaker who helped launch his career, are teaming up once again. Netflix announced Tuesday that the longtime collaborators will reunite for "Dogfight," a new revenge action thriller set in the British criminal underworld. Production is scheduled to begin in early 2027.
"Dogfight" marks the seventh collaboration between Statham and Ritchie. Their previous films together include "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels," "Snatch," "Revolver," "Wrath of Man," 2023's "Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre," and the upcoming "Viva La Madness." The latter is based on the novel of the same name, a sequel to "Layer Cake," but will not be connected to the 2004 film adaptation.
Ritchie will once again write and direct, although plot details remain under wraps. The film is being produced by Black Bear, Ritchie's Toff Guy Films, and Statham's Punch Palace. Netflix has not yet announced a release date.
