A Working Man partial poster featuring Jason Statham
A Working Man — a hit crime thriller starring Jason Statham— is now available to rent for significantly less on digital streaming.
A Working Man opened in theaters on March 28. The official summary for A Working Man reads, 'Levon Cade (Statham) left behind a decorated military career in the black ops to live a simple life working construction.
"But when his boss' daughter (Arianna Rivas), who is like family to him, is taken by human traffickers, his search to bring her home uncovers a world of corruption far greater than he ever could have imagined.'
Directed by David Ayer — who directed the Statham hit The Beekeeper — A Working Man also stars David Harbour, Michael Peña, Ilsa Gie and Jason Flemying.
Starting Tuesday, A Working Man's digital streaming rental price via premium video on demand is $9.99, dropping 50% from its original rental price of $19.99. Digital rentals are good for a 48-hour period once the viewer begins watching the movie.
Also, A Working Man's purchase price has dropped from $24.99 to $19.99.
A Working Man's lower rental price of $9.99 is available on such digital platforms as AppleTV, Fandango at Home and YouTube.
Prime Video, however, does not have a rental option, only a lower purchase price of $19.99.
A Working Man earned a 49% 'rotten' rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 148 reviews.
The RT Critics Consensus for A Working Man reads, 'An efficient action flick that delivers on the meat and potatoes of a Jason Statham vehicle while skimping out on the personality, A Working Man clocks in and out without much fuss or flair.'
Audiences on RT, however, had a much different take on A Working Man, giving the film an 87% 'fresh' rating on RT's Popcornmeter based on 2,500-plus verified user ratings.
The audience summary for the film on RT reads, 'The Stath stoically and reliably delivers high-octane action in A Working Man, a bang bang shoot' 'em up that pairs perfectly with hot, buttery popcorn.'
A Working Man to date has earned $36.9 million in North American theaters and $61.6 million internationally for a worldwide box office tally of $98.5 million against a $40 million production budget before prints and advertising costs.
The screenplay for A Working Man was adapted by Sylvester Stallone and director David Ayer from Chuck Dixon's 2014 novel Levon's Trade.
Rated R, A Working Man is available for a reduced rental price starting Tuesday.

Surprise Video Shows Prince Harry and His Kids at Disneyland—But One Princess Lilibet Moment Made Me Do a Double Take
We don't often get an unfiltered glimpse of Prince Harry these days—but this week, Meghan Markle shared an Instagram reel that gave us something close: a two-day Disneyland trip for daughter Lilibet's fourth birthday, complete with princess meet-and-greets, rides, cake and a surprisingly normal snapshot of family life. The video is cheerful and tightly edited, set to Peggy Lee's 'It's a Good Day.' We see Harry laughing on Space Mountain, grinning through Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters and trailing the kids around Cars Land in a backwards cap. Faces are covered with heart emojis, but there's enough to piece together who's who. Then comes the moment that made me do a double-take. Captured by Meghan Markle via Instagram Mid-reel, Meghan leads the kids into a Frozen-themed meet-and-greet. In a later shot, Lilibet—red hair, blue cap, floral dress—is seen holding hands with Elsa. Meghan's in mouse ears. Harry's filming. And suddenly, you're watching a real princess meet a fake one. Fans called it 'a full-circle fairytale,' but really, it's just a four-year-old's birthday party—with slightly more security. To that end, the real magic may not have been at Disneyland at all. In a quieter moment from the same week, Meghan posted a snapshot of Harry and Lilibet walking barefoot through a palm-lined path—her hand steady in his. 'Daddy's little girl and favorite adventurer,' she wrote. Because at the end of the day, Meghan may be the princess, but Harry is the ultimate girl dad.

Horror Comedy ‘Clown In A Cornfield' Arrives On Streaming This Week
Frendo the Clown in a scene from "Clown in a Cornfield." Clown in a Cornfield — a horror comedy from the director of Tucker & Dale vs. Evil — is coming to digital streaming this week. Directed by Eli Craig, Clown in a Cornfield opened in theaters on May 9. The summary for the movie reads, 'In Clown in a Cornfield, Quinn (Katie Douglas) and her father (Aaron Abrams) have just moved to the quiet town of Kettle Springs, hoping for a fresh start. Instead, she discovers a fractured community that has fallen on hard times after the treasured Baypen Corn Syrup Factory burned down. 'As the locals bicker amongst themselves and tensions boil over, a sinister, grinning figure emerges from the cornfields to cleanse the town of its burdens, one bloody victim at a time. Welcome to Kettle Springs. The real fun starts when Frendo the Clown comes out to play.' Clown in a Cornfield is based on Adam Cesare's book of the same name. The movie also stars Kevin Durand, Carson MacCormack, Cassandra Potenza, Verity Marks, Ayo Solanke, Vincent Muller and Will Sasso. As confirmed by a listing on Prime Video, Clown in a Cornfield arrived on digital streaming via premium video on demand on Tuesday, June 11. In addition to Prime Video, Clown in a Cornfield will be available for purchase for PVOD for $24.99 on such digital platforms as Apple TV, Fandango at Home and YouTube. Since PVOD rentals are typically $5 less than purchase prices, viewers can expect to rent Clown in a Cornfield for 48 hours for $19.99. Naturally, with the word 'clown' in the title of Clown in a Cornfield, Eli Craig knew that it would make fans think of the murderous Art the Clown from director Damien Leone's Terrifier horror hits. As such, Craig made a conscious decision to avoid the unrated horror and gore route of Leone's movies by trusting his own instincts by creating a line that he — and Frendo the Clown — should not cross. 'My gut is the line and sometimes I go to the point where I feel like I'm testing my own gut, where I can't really watch something myself,' Craig said in a Zoom conversation prior to the release of Clown in a Cornfield. "With Terrifier 3, I had to watch the film in little segments to study it and I realized, 'Oh wow, Damien Leone is a master.' I wanted to look at how he was doing in-camera special effects. [At the same time] I had to disassociate what I was seeing to process it. I had to think about the process of how he did stuff so I wouldn't puke.' However, Craig, added, he made sure to take full advantage of what an R rating allowed. 'I feel like I've hit the mark where most people are going to go, 'Ooh!' and start turning away, but then I'm done,' Craig explained. 'I have these moments that may be a little shocking, but there's just a touch of humor in it as well that makes it tolerable. 'I want to have the kills be quite real and a little bit shocking, gritty and brutal, but also have a touch of playfulness to them,' Craig added. 'They're not brutal to the point of being sickening, though. That's the line for me. I'm not interested in making a sickening movie. I want to make a fun movie that has kills in it.' Clown in a Cornfield has earned $7.2 million in domestic ticket sales and more than $532,000 internationally for a worldwide box office gross of $7.7 million to date. Craig said the production budget for the film was 'significantly less' than $10 million. The film also earned a 74% 'fresh' rating from Rotten Tomatoes critics based on 136 reviews, while audiences gave it a 59% 'rotten' score on RT's Popcornmeter based on 500-plus verified user ratings. Clown in a Cornfield arrives on PVOD on Tuesday.

Miley Cyrus Says She ‘Wasn't Allowed' to Perform ‘Hannah Montana' Songs After She ‘Left Disney': ‘Not Like I Wanted To'
Miley Cyrus had to leave 'Hannah Montana' behind after exiting the Disney Channel. In a recent conversation on Spotify's 'The Ringer' podcast, Cyrus said she 'wasn't allowed' to sing any of the original songs from her hit TV series 'Hannah Montana' after the show ended in 2011. More from Variety Why 'Somebody Somewhere' Star Bridget Everett Insisted Miley Cyrus' 'The Climb' Be Sam's Defining Anthem: It's the Song 'That Matters Most' Miley Cyrus on 'Something Beautiful' Visual Album and Writing Verses for Naomi Campbell: 'She Had No Notes' 'Something Beautiful with Miley Cyrus' Review: The Star Co-Directs an Album's Worth of Music Videos, Celebrating Her Herself 'After I left Disney, I wasn't allowed to perform any of the 'Hannah Montana' music,' she explained. 'It's not like I wanted to, I mean, performing 'The Best Of Both Worlds' between 'We Can't Stop' and 'Wrecking Ball,' wouldn't have really made sense.' 'It was still sad knowing those songs have my voice, my face, and I wasn't allowed to sing them,' she added. However, after Cyrus was named a Disney Legend at D23 2024, she was 'given permission to perform those songs in the future,' which Cyrus said was 'pretty cool.' 'Hannah Montana,' which followed a regular teen who lives a double life as the titular pop sensation, ran for 100 episodes from 2006-2011 on the Disney Channel. Other cast members included Emily Osment, Jason Earles, Billy Ray Cyrus, Mitchel Musso and Moises Arias. The former child star's latest project is 'Something Beautiful,' a 55-minute visual album that hits theaters June 12. At the premiere, Cyrus paid tribute to all the female artists who inspired her work. 'I completely worship and idolize the Tina Turners, the Donna Summers, Diana Ross and so many ladies before me that paved this path that I'm on,' she said. 'This is my journey but they made it so much easier because they've already broken down all the doors for me.'
