The Mechanic, with Jason Statham
They're filming some b-side action flick in downtown New Orleans today. These are some shots from my office window. The guy in beige shirt on the stairs is Jason Statham's stuntman. I though Statham was known for doing all his own stunts. They did a little scene with one bad guy getting flipped over the rail and the other guy punched and falling down the steps.

Is this a re-make of the Charles Bronson movie of the same name?

I think it is.

And the apprentice in this one is Ben Foster.

It's amazing the amount of time they sit around between filming anything. I've seen some cool stunts, but not as good as when John Cena crashed a fire truck into a popcorn cart on that same street for the movie 12 Rounds.

He was filming last week or so in Covington off of Three Rivers Road for that same movie.
