Jason Stanly

Jason Stanly is both an actor and the premier Jason Statham impersonator worldwide. The Baton Rouge, Louisiana native has spent more than a decade as a "carbon copy" of the English action star in live performances, commercials, network television, and feature films, most notably a Hunger Games parody shot in his home state. His often humorous take on the tough, anti-hero types played by Statham constantly reaches new audiences on social media platforms, such as TikTok, where he shares original content daily for his fast-growing following.  

Stanly's polished, professional style is ideal for roles as a man driven by great ambition and high standards, from federal agent to U.S Senator to Fortune 500 CEO. His brand of creative thinking and collaboration lends itself to working as part of an ensemble cast. His work ethic in both the craft and the business of acting is shaped heavily by a background of more than two fruitful decades in the financial services industry as an investment and insurance broker.  

Stanly frequently shares the stage and screen with other sought-after impersonators. The connection grew from his time on the set of The Starving Games where he portrayed Statham's Lee Christmas character from The Expendables franchise. After working with other celebrity look-alikes connected to the popular action-thriller film series, Stanly and his peers dubbed themselves The Expandables and began developing projects inspired by the mercenary characters and storylines.

 Long before he began impersonating Statham's most famous roles, Stanly grabbed attention as a member of the USA Weightlifting National Team. His skills took him to international competition in the Junior World Championships and Junior Pan American Championships. He sustained a love of athletic competition through his undergraduate years at LSU before starting a long and successful run in the financial world.
