Jason Statham Returns for The Beekeeper 2 Production

Jason Statham is set to reprise his role as Adam Clay in 'The Beekeeper 2,' with production scheduled to begin this fall under director Timo Tjahjanto, known for his work on 'Nobody 2.' The sequel follows the success of the first film, which grossed over $152 million worldwide, and will feature a script by Kurt Wimmer, who penned the original. While David Ayer directed the first installment, he is expected to return as a producer for the sequel. The film's plot details remain under wraps, but it continues the story of Clay's quest for vengeance. Miramax is producing the film, with Amazon MGM Studios likely handling domestic distribution. The announcement has generated excitement, although a recent trailer circulating online has been confirmed as fan-made and AI-generated.
