Box Office: 'Working Man' Tops Friday As 'Snow White' Plunges 77%

Jason Statham remains Hollywood's "last action hero," as 'The Chosen' nabs a record opening day and A24's 'Death of a Unicorn' flops.

In today’s too-long Friday box office report…

• Audiences liked Jason Statham as A Working Man almost as much as they liked him as The Beekeeper (or, adjusted for inflation, The Mechanic).

• Fathom’s The Chosen: The Last Supper set a new franchise-high single-day gross.

• The Woman in the Yard, a well-made yet oppressively grim horror melodrama, is just the latest Blumhouse flick to underwhelm compared to their 2010s hot streak.

• A24’s Death of a Unicorn couldn’t convince casual moviegoers to sample its “Paul Rudd and Jenna Ortega versus angry unicorns” horror comedy hook.

• Princess Mononoke’s reissue will push its lifetime cume past $200 million globally.

• Disney is well past “the cover-up is worse than the crime” territory in trying to pin Snow White’s inevitable commercial failure on Rachel Zegler.
