Jason Statham says that it was amazing to get Robert De Niro and Clive Owen for new movie The Killer Elite.
The trio join forces for the action movie, which has played at the Toronto Film Festival this week, which is directed by Gary McKendry.
And the British actor admits that he couldn't quite believe it when De Niro and Owen agreed to take on the project.
Speaking to Collider the actor said: "You actually don’t believe at first that they are going to come and turn up on set.
"Once you get over that, and you actually see them in person, it’s 'Oh, they are here.' [laughs] So then you get on with the job at hand. So, yeah, it is amazing.
"They just bring all of the credibility to the characters and it just raises the game like you would never imagine.
The Killer Elite is released 23rd September.
