Jason Statham's 'A Working Man' Hits Theaters Tomorrow
The action thriller directed by David Ayer and co-written by Sylvester Stallone has drawn mixed early reviews for its formulaic approach and lack of thematic depth.
- Jason Statham stars as Levon Cade, a former Royal Marine turned construction worker, tasked with rescuing his boss's kidnapped daughter from Russian human traffickers.
- The film is directed by David Ayer and co-written by Sylvester Stallone, based on Chuck Dixon's novel 'Levon’s Trade,' the first in a 12-book series.
- Critics have praised Statham's action performance but criticized the movie for its lack of originality and shallow treatment of serious themes like human trafficking and PTSD.
- Positioned as a potential franchise starter, the film is tracking moderate box office expectations, with projections between $10-15 million for its opening weekend.
- The movie, distributed by MGM Studios, will be released in theaters on March 28, 2025, with premium format options like Dolby Cinema available.
