Jason Statham’s action thriller A Working Man has climbed into the top 10 rankings on Prime Video’s global list of original films. Released in May 2025, the film continues to demonstrate significant staying power on the streaming platform, proving to be a consistent draw for audiences more than a year after its debut.
A Persistent Streaming Performer
According to data from industry trackers like MovieWeb and Collider, A Working Man has repeatedly secured a position within the Prime Video global top 10. While Amazon does not publicly disclose specific viewership metrics, the film’s ability to maintain chart relevance alongside other major titles highlights its enduring popularity with subscribers. Its current standing at the number 10 position places it among a competitive slate of Prime Original content.
From Theatrical Run to Streaming Success
The film adapts Chuck Dixon’s 2014 novel Levon’s Trade. It follows Statham as Levon Cade, a former black-ops operative who attempts to leave his violent past behind to work in construction. The narrative kicks into high gear when his boss’s daughter is kidnapped by human traffickers, forcing Cade to utilize his specialized skill set to bring her home.
The project reunited Statham with director David Ayer, with whom he previously collaborated on the 2024 hit The Beekeeper. While A Working Man saw a modest theatrical performance-earning approximately $89.4 million worldwide against a $40 million budget-its transition to streaming has been more successful. Audience reception is strong, with the film holding an 87% score on the Rotten Tomatoes Popcornmeter, contrasting with a mixed critical response.
Franchise Potential and Future Outlook
The source material provides a massive foundation for potential sequels. Chuck Dixon’s Levon Cade series spans 12 novels, offering Amazon MGM Studios significant narrative material to expand the story. Despite this franchise potential, the studio has not made any official announcement regarding a sequel.
Industry analysts suggest that the film’s consistent streaming performance serves as a strong argument for further installments. However, Statham maintains a busy production schedule, including the upcoming The Beekeeper 2, which is slated for a January 2027 release. For now, A Working Man remains a cornerstone of Prime Video’s action library, continuing to attract viewers.
