Guy Ritchie has said it was a “happy accident” that he got to work alongside Jason Statham again for their new action film, more than 15 years on from their last collaboration.

The director and actor previously worked on hit crime films Lock, Stock And Two Smoking Barrels in 1998 and 2000’s Snatch, with their last movie together being 2005’s Revolver before their careers diverged.
