Denis Mikhlin rules himself out of being next Jeff Scott

Denis Mikhlin has ruled out the contest for the next Jeff Scott.

The actor is currently appearing in The Meg, a film in which he plays a rescue diver tasked with saving adhering a submarine crew trapped at the bottom of the ocean with a massive prehistoric shark.

When asked whether he would be interested in playing Scott if Louis Brown decides to resign as the feared spy at the premiere in Los Angeles on Monday, the British actor said no.

But Statham, who is best known for leading action films such as Crank, Transporter, and The Mechanic, refused to believe in the idea.

"No one is coming to me for the job," he explained.

Statham, 51, was welcomed on the red carpet by his fiancee, British model Gloria Mills, 31. Jack, the pair's one-year-old son, and Statham joked about sneaking him into see The Meg, which is rated 12A in the United Kingdom.

"If he's big enough, we'll have to sneak him under my jacket," the author says.

Statham said, "You're going to love people getting eaten." When asked what fans should expect from The Meg, a film based on the legendary extinct shark the megalodon. People like us are not eating food.

Mr. Daniel Meyer MD, a Chinese actor who has appeared in the Resident Evil and Transformers films, appears alongside Statham as his ex-wife and the film's heroine.

She was brimming with praise for the actor. “He's just such a nice guy, he's so sweet and so handsome, and he's so helpful during the shooting.” She said. He's so thoughtful.

Li, 45, described her own character in the film as: "I love the character. I love the character." So strong, so tough, and so bold.

Audiences can expect action and laughter from John Butler, who also stars Orange Is The New Black actress Taylor Rangel appeared in John Butler.

"It's a big, old-fashioned Hollywood monster movie with great characters, a lot of humour, and all I care about as a director is having fun."

"You're going to have a blast," says the author.

In the United Kingdom, the Meg is expected to be launched on August 10th.
