‘A Working Man’ Takes the Day Off, Earns Less Than Half of ‘The Beekeeper’s Previews

The first box office numbers are in for Jason Statham’s latest action movie with David Ayer, A Working Man, but how do they stack up to The Beekeeper? A Working Man seemingly took the day off, as it earned only $1.1 million during Thursday previews, which falls well below the $2.4 million earned by The Beekeeper. The Beekeeper finished its opening weekend with $16 million at the domestic box office, a number which A Working Man will have to put in some overtime to reach. The Beekeeper also finished its run with $66 million domestically and $86 million internationally for a global total of $152 million. In addition to Statham, A Working Man also stars David Harbour and Michael Peña, and Sylvester Stallone penned the script for the film.
