The action-packed reunion of director Guy Ritchie and his iconic partner, Jason Statham, is set to thrill audiences with a new cast of seven. The highly anticipated film, 'Viva La Madness', is a stand-alone original thriller, promising the high-octane, character-rich thrills fans have come to expect from this legendary duo. The ensemble cast includes the likes of Jason Isaacs, Vinnie Jones, Babs Olusanmokun, Camila Mendes, Ben Foster, Jonny Lee Miller, and Grammy-winning artist Raúl Alejandro. This powerhouse lineup is set to deliver an unforgettable cinematic experience.
The film is based on the novel by JJ Connolly, who co-wrote the screenplay with Ritchie. While plot details are being kept under wraps, it's confirmed that 'Viva La Madness' is an original, standalone film, not a continuation of any previous work. This announcement also brings exciting reunions, as Vinnie Jones collaborates with Ritchie for the fifth time, having previously starred in classics like 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' and 'Mean Machine'. Babs Olusanmokun, known for 'Dune', teams up with Ritchie again after 'The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare', and Jonny Lee Miller recently worked with the director on 'The Covenant'.
'Viva La Madness' is a joint production by Statham's Punch Palace Productions and Thomas Benski for Lumina Studios, produced alongside Ritchie and Ivan Atkinson for Toff Guy Films and John Friedberg for Black Bear. Amazon MGM Studios will handle international distribution, while Black Bear manages the film's domestic release. With production already underway, fans can expect an exciting trailer and release date announcement soon, marking another successful collaboration between Guy Ritchie and Jason Statham.
