Jason Statham is thankful for the “unsung heroes” of action films.

The Hobbs & Shaw actor, 51, spoke to Extra about stuntman Joe Watts’ head injury on the set of the upcoming Fast & Furious 9. Watts was reportedly injured on Monday after falling about 30 feet while on set in England and is now in an “induced coma,” according to multiple outlets.

Statham, who is familiar with stunts in movies such as The Transporter and most recently the Fast & Furious spinoff film, Hobbs & Shaw, said the accident “is awful.”

“It’s an unpredictable science,” he told Extra of performing stunts in films. “You do every measure that you can eliminate these things from happening. It’s just a real shame that accidents happen. It’s awful for the families when someone gets really hurt.”

Statham continued, “On set, the stunt people are and have been for my whole career the best relationships I have and the most fun I have ever had on a set, always with the stunt guys.”

“I feel they are the unsung heroes in some ways,” he added. “They put themselves out there to make other people look good without anything back.”
