Well, here’s more evidence that creativity is dying a slow, painful death… producer Luc Besson is set to reboot The Transporter with a view to launching a new trilogy beginning with Transporter 4. Jason Statham will not reprise his role as Frank Martin in the new films, which will instead explore the character’s origin story.
Released in 2002, 2005 and 2008, the Transporter films grossed over $250 million around the globe, and also spawned a TV spin-off starring Chris Vance as Martin, which ran for one season in 2012 and has been picked up by TNT for a second staring this Fall.
Have you got any interest in seeing a new Transporter trilogy, sans Statham? Let us know in the comments below…
