The Mutiny Jason Statham film is scheduled to open in U.S. cinemas on Aug. 21, with Lionsgate presenting the action thriller about a man framed after his billionaire employer is killed.
The film’s official website says Jason Statham plays Cole Reed, who witnesses his boss’s murder and is blamed for the crime. Reed boards a cargo ship while pursuing the people behind the killing and discovers an international conspiracy.
The Associated Press included Mutiny in its 2026 summer movie guide and listed the film as a Lionsgate theatrical release for Aug. 21. AP described Statham’s character as trying to clear his name and avenge his dead billionaire boss.
Lionsgate’s official movie pages and trailer materials identify the production as a film from Lionsgate, MadRiver Pictures and Punch Palace. The promotional synopsis presents the story as a ship-based action thriller rather than a sequel to an earlier Statham title.
The release date in the sources applies to the United States. Availability in other markets can follow a different schedule, so local listings should be checked before planning a cinema visit.
Neither the official synopsis nor the AP release listing is a review or a box-office result. They establish the film’s announced premise, distributor and U.S. theatrical date ahead of the opening.
