Meanwhile, A Working Man, which was released on March 28 and sees Statham play a construction worker returning to his counter-terrorism ways to find a missing girl, earned $15,215,874.

Coming in third place was The Chosen: Last Supper – Part 1, a TV series based on Jesus’ life that earned $11,492,369 at the box office. Like A Working Man, it hit theatres on March 28.
