'A Working Man' Tops Box Office, Surpassing 'Snow White'

In a surprising turn at the box office, Jason Statham's action film 'A Working Man' secured the No. 1 spot with a $15.2 million debut, overtaking Disney's 'Snow White,' which suffered a significant 66% drop in its second weekend, earning only $14.2 million. 'Snow White,' produced for over $250 million, has grossed $143.1 million globally so far, but is projected to face heavy losses, potentially exceeding $300 million. Despite mixed reviews, 'A Working Man' has drawn positive audience feedback, earning a 'B' on CinemaScore, and reflects Statham's growing bankability in the industry. The performance of 'Snow White' has raised concerns about its appeal and profitability, particularly as it was expected to attract family audiences. Other films opening this weekend, including 'The Chosen: The Last Supper,' also made a notable impact, with projections of around $12 million. This box office shift highlights the changing dynamics and audience preferences in the current cinematic landscape.
