British actor Jason Statham and director Guy Ritchie have discussed the possibility of making a movie in Dubai.
The pair were in the UAE city on Thursday for the world premiere of their film “Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre” in the Dubai Mall.
“We were talking only this afternoon about the potential of coming here and making a movie which is very exciting to us,” Stat
“I hope that can manifest itself pretty soon. We would certainly love to be here. So far we’ve got nothing but warmth and love, and we want to give that back and show our appreciation.

“We’ve changed our philosophy around that and we’ve come to places like Dubai, and you want to drink up the culture and drink up the place, and that’s why we want to stay here a bit longer and fill up our boots,” the actor said.
“To be here, talking about the film, having a premiere here, is a great privilege.”
Ritchie’s latest film tells the story of a special agent Orson Fortune and his team of operatives who recruit one of Hollywood’s biggest movie stars to help them on an undercover mission.
British rapper and actor Bugzy Malone, who also stars in the film, attended the Dubai premiere.
