Hollywood actors are expected to be like a chameleon, versatile with every project. However, a few A-listers like Dwayne Johnson are accused of playing the same bland character every time. Nonetheless, this time fans added another actor to the list, who is none other than Jason Statham.

Criticized for playing similar roles in different movies, Jason Statham got on the list, following the trailer release for David Ayer’s The Beekeeper. Slated to release in January 2024, although the movie received appreciation, Statham got slammed by fans and netizens for playing the same character yet again.

Dwayne Johnson Criticized For Playing Same Roles in Different Movies

Versatility is something that is often expected from actors, after a few years of experience. However, sadly not all actors turn out to be splendid performers, as a few of them become guilty of repeating roles, over and over again. Playing the same bland character, Dwayne Johnson has been accused of being a terrible actor.

Despite being one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood, Dwayne Johnson has been accused of playing the same archetype role of a buff action dude. Leaving behind his wrestling career, Johnson navigated into the entertainment industry and earned the position of an A-lister within a few years.

But unfortunately, according to fans, the actor failed to improve his acting skills. And thereafter kept on playing the same type of role over and over again in different projects. Despite pairing with interesting co-stars, Johnson became the bland straight man in most movies. But on a positive note, he certainly marketed himself as a charismatic buff hero.

Jason Statham Joined The List for Repeating His Roles Everytime 

Currently, just like Dwayne Johnson, his Fast & Furious co-star Jason Statham has also been accused of the same mistake. Repeating his roles in most projects, Statham got criticized by fans following the release of his upcoming David Ayer movie The Beekeeper’s trailer. As Discussing Film shared the first trailer of the movie, fans gathered to slam the actor.

Feeling disheartened to see Jason Statham following Dwayne Johnson’s footsteps and turning into an action movie hardman, netizens slammed the actor on X. Despite being one of the most accomplished action movie stars in Hollywood, fans believe his roles are becoming largely indistinguishable from each other.

Jason Statham plays the same character in almost every single film. At least he knows what works for him.

Many fans and netizens pointed out that Statham’s early works were quite different from one another, but in recent years his films and characters are looking more similar than ever. Being guilty of playing the same archetype role as Johnson, Jason Statham faced criticism despite his successful career.

The Beekeeper will be released on 12th January 2024.
