The trilogy got bigger, bolder, and better with each movie.
2005sTransporter 2expanded the scope with even more bonkers action scenes and 2008sTransporter 3became the highest-grossing entry in the series.
Negotiations for a fourth film eventually fell through, andStatham has since revealed why he turned downTransporter 4.
The TV show,Transporter: The Series, ran for two seasonsbetween 2012 and 2014.
Francois Berleand was the only returning actor from the movies, reprising his role as Inspector Tarconi.
Transporter: The Serieswas officially canceled on November 26, 2015.
This time, Frank was played by Ed Skrein, best known for playing the villainous Francis inDeadpool.
The movie acted as both a reboot of the franchise and a prequel to Franks original story.
The movie was panned by critics, who found it massively underwhelming after three fun-filled entries starring Statham.
It started to become apparent thatmaybeThe Transporterdoesnt work so well without its shining star.
The trilogy was announced at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival as a co-production of EuropaCorp and Chinas Fundamental Films.
Luc Besson was set to co-finance, distribute, produce, and write all three movies.

The original title,The Transporter Legacy, was changed toThe Transporter Refueled.
But despite this success, and despite the previous plans,Transporter 5never happened.
Skreins Frank wasnt fit to headline a franchise.
Will Jason Statham Ever Make Another Transporter Movie?
But maybe thats for the best.
His uniquely gruff charisma and magnetic screen presence are the reasons audiences took to theTransportermovies in the first place.
