'The Transporter' Series Gets a New Lead and a Smokin' Hot Trailer

LOS ANGELES - Action star Jason Statham may have left his popular "The Transporter' action series for "Fast & Furious" franchise, but it didn't mean the end of the series as producers unveiled a brand new trailer for the upcoming "The Transporter Refueled."

The new film, which serves as a series prequel, features handsome British actor Ed Skrein as a younger version of the series protagonist Frank Martin. In the trailer, young Frank Martin is heard worrying about becoming obsolete thanks to fast rising technology.

The cast includes Ray Stevenson (Rome, The Divergent Series), Gabriella Wright (The Perfect Husband), Radivoje Bukvic, Anatole Taubman, Tatiana Pajkovic and Loan Chabanol. The film slams into theaters on July 19.
