Jason Statham is Parker!

Deadline is reporting that FilmDistrict is expected to obtain the U.S. distribution rights for the Jason Statham starrer, Parker, based on the character created by author Donald E. Westlake.
The film, which will begin production in August, is being director by Taylor Hackford from a screenplay by John J. McLaughlin.

Says Deadline of the Parker character: "Parker is a thief, but one who follows a strict moral code he'll kill to uphold."

Previously, Parker was represented on screen in the form of Lee Marvin in Point Blank, while Mel Gibson portrayed the role in Payback, which has a studio and director's (Brian Helgeland) cut out on DVD (both of which are so distinct that you can easily watch them back to back).
