The Transporter Refueled is a 2015 English-language French actionthriller film directed by Camille Delamarre and written by Bill Collage, Adam Cooper, and Luc Besson. It is the fourth film in the Transporterfranchise and the first film to be distributed by EuropaCorp in North America, but features a new cast, with Ed Skrein replacing Jason Statham as the title role of Frank Martin.

Filming began on 1 August 2014, in Paris, France. The film was released on 4 September 2015 in the United States and 9 September in France.

Plot[edit]

Former special-operations mercenary Frank Martin is living a less perilous lifestyle than he had previously, transporting classified packages for questionable people. Then he took the contract from Anna following his 3 rules of no names, no questions and no renegotiations. According to the contract, he should be near the bank for her and her two packages. However, he finds himself thrust into danger again when prostitute Anna and her accomplices Gina, Maria, and Qiao orchestrate a bank robbery and kidnap Martin's father to confront and kill Arkady Karasov, a human trafficker who had victimized Anna years earlier. Anna's whole team robbed the friends of Arkady and framed his friends against him.

Cast[edit]

Production[edit]

At the 2013 Cannes Film Festival, a new trilogy was announced with EuropaCorp and China's Fundamental Films co-producing and distributing the titles.[4][5] The films will likely be budgeted between €25 million and €30 million each and at least one will be shot in China.[6] Luc Besson will co-finance, distribute, produce and write all the films.[7] The franchise was rebooted after negotiations with Jason Statham fell through.

EuropaCorp wanted him to sign a three contract deal with Statham, without revealing the script first. English actorEd Skrein replaced Statham as Frank Martin in the fourth installment of the series.[8] In March 2015, the title was changed from The Transporter Legacy to The Transporter Refueled.

Principal photography of the film began on 1 August 2014, in Paris, France.[9][10][11][12]

Release[edit]

The film was previously set to be released on 6 March 2015.[9] On 5 November 2014, EuropaCorp moved the film for a 19 June 2015 release.[13] On 1 April 2015, EuropaCorp again moved the film back to a 4 September 2015.[14]

The site's critical consensus reads, "The Transporter Refueled has little to offer beyond a handful of decent action sequences, leaving this reboot's title feeling more like wishful thinking than a restatement of purpose."[17] On Metacritic the film has a score of 32 out of 100, based on 24 critics, indicating "generally unfavorable reviews".[18] On CinemaScore, audiences gave the film an average grade of "B-" on an A+ to F scale.[19]
