Amazon MGM has released the final two clips ofJason StathaminA Working Manahead of the film’s premiere in theaters everywhere tomorrow. Each clip shows Statham getting into a vicious fight, but one takes place on a construction site and the other inside an old, run-down building. While only the construction site sneak peek shows the fight in its entirety, Statham has the upper hand in both and has little-to-no trouble dispatching his foes. In addition to Statham, bothDavid HarbourandMichael Peñahave also been tapped for roles inA Working Man. Harbour will also be seen later this year inThunderbolts*, and Peña was recently featured in the first episode ofLandman, the Paramount+ series fromTaylor Sheridan.
A Working Manfollows Levon Cade (Statham), a man with a dark past who is called back into the life he left behind when a young girl is kidnapped. The film was directed byDavid Ayer, and it will be the second collaboration between the two. They first teamed up last year forThe Beekeeper, and the film was well-received by both critics and audiences on its way to earning over $150 million at the global box office. Amazon MGM has also announced thatThe Beekeeper 2is in the works, but Ayer will not return to direct due toprior commitments withBrad PittinHeart of the Beast. Ayer made his directorial debut in 2005 withHarsh Times(Christian Bale), and he also helmed what many would argue is the greatest police procedural movie of all time,End of Watch.
