Jason Statham’s latest action thriller is now playing in theaters everywhere, and the film earned solid returns at the box office during its debut weekend. A Working Man, which was directed by David Ayer, hauled in $15.2 million this weekend to take the top spot at the box office. The film earned only $1.1 million in Thursday previews, which was less than half that of Statham and Ayer’s previous collaboration, The Beekeeper, but it recovered over the weekend. A Working Man’s $15.2 million opening only narrowly falls behind The Beekeeper’s $16.5 million debut. A Working Man also collected $15 million from international markets to help its worldwide total reach $30 million, which was also enough to put Jason Statham’s career box office total past $8.5 billion.
