Here’s the first poster (via IGN) for Jason Statham-headlining serial killer pic, Blitz.

It would appear our ‘Jase’ has returned to home soil to offer his services in what looks like a more dramatic and meatier role than the recent throwaway US stuff he’s been involved in.

With major talent like The Wire’s Aiden Gillen, David Morrisey and even Paddy Considine on board, here’s hoping that the film isn’t your average, run-of-the-mill police procedural, although the awful title doesn’t help to alleviate this worry and neither does this poster, which resorts to using those familiar, clichéd images of the London skyline which we’ve seen hundreds of times before.

We’ll find out if it was worth Statham’s plane ticket back to Blighty when the film opens next summer.
