Jason Statham's James Bond-Like Heist Saga Is Free on Tubi

Before cinematic universes and endless spy franchises took over multiplexes, mid-budget action thrillers like The Italian Job ruled weekend movie nights — and now the 2003 remake is making a comeback on free streaming. The film updates the classic British caper with a glossy Hollywood edge, centering on a team of professional thieves pulled back together for one last job, this time for revenge.

It opens with a gold heist in Venice that goes sideways when one crew member betrays the rest and vanishes with the loot; a year later the survivors regroup in Los Angeles to steal back what’s theirs. The cast includes Mark Wahlberg as Charlie Croker, Charlize Theron as Stella Bridger, Jason Statham as Handsome Rob, Edward Norton as Steve Frazelli, Seth Green as Lyle, Mos Def as Left Ear, Donald Sutherland as John Bridger and Franky G as Wrench.

Long before he was headlining franchises, Statham was already radiating the cool intensity that makes him feel like a rougher, street-level cousin to James Bond.
