He's a man of action – and this week, actor Jason Statham treated model-girlfriend Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to some fast-paced fun.

The twosome spent time mingling with friends at a L'Oréal Paris and Cinema Society-sponsored bash at Marquee in New York City following a special screening of Statham's new film, Parker.

Statham, looking dapper in an all-black suit, stuck close to his girlfriend in the back corner of the venue as they both sipped on Appleton Estate cocktails and enjoyed small bites of mushroom-topped latkes, shrimp cocktails, mini egg rolls and sushi. According to a source, the couple was "having a good time" and really "enjoyed themselves."

While co-star Jennifer Lopez didn't attend the bash (she was at the screening earlier in the evening, though), several cast and crew members, including director Taylor Hackford, toasted their success at the invite-only fête.

After lingering for a bit, Statham and his leading lady were seen holding hands and making a quick exit around 11:20 p.m.
