BBC America: "Guy Ritchie CV of work"

- May 20, 2021

Jason Statham & Guy Ritchie

Writer-director Guy Ritchie's new movie Wrath of Man recently hit theaters (May 7), starring Jason Statham. Ritchie brings his A game once again, with the flick packed with riveting action. The story revolves around a security guard (Statham) of an armored truck, who startles his colleagues when breaking out some serious combat skills.

Ritchie has a go-to genre, leaning toward crime, but he does make some surprise pivots here and there.

Let's take a peek at his CV of work:

6. The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

In 2015, Ritchie turned his attention to spying, with The Man from U.N.C.L.E. An adaptation of the 1960s TV series by the same name, we see Henry Cavill as American CIA agent Napoleon Solo. Set during the Cold War, Solo is a former criminal, turned intelligence, who is tasked with extracting a young woman (Alicia Vikander) from Berlin. The two work to dodge a KGB operative, trying to run interference.
