According to Variety, the movie, which was earlier titled Baby Cross, will be helmed by Danish filmmaker Martin Zandvliet.

Steven Knight, best known for creating acclaimed BBC series Peaky Blinders, has penned the script, which centres around Russian mafia in London.

Small Dark Look, which hails from Focus Features, will be produced by Paul Webster.

Statham, who has hits like The Transporter series, The Meg and Hobbs & Shaw to his credit, will next star in British filmmaker Guy Ritchie’s untitled thriller.
