A separate filmography page for Statham.[edit]

I think there should be a separate filmography page for him. All other A-list actors have such pages but statham. Please, make it happen. Robi Azam (talk) 21:45, 13 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. GamerKlim9716 (talk) 19:43, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Early Life[edit]

This section says he grew up with Vinnie Jones. Statham was born in Derbyshire and grew up in Norfolk accoring to the same section. Vinnie Jones was born and raised in and around Watford, Hertfordshire according to his linked wikipedia entry. Either Statham didn't grow up with Vinnie Jones or trhe entire section needs revising and rewriting. Decembrium (talk) 12:43, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography[edit]

Why isn't there a separate filmography page like for everyone else? GamerKlim9716 (talk) 19:44, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Hardboiled" characters is inaccurate[edit]

The actor never played hardboiled characters. This is a mystery genre centered on 1940s Neo-noir detective fiction. The word (if not linked to the article) alternately means someone who is "tough and cynical", but these traits are already suggested about the actor's film roles, making the attribute redundant.
