With Jason Statham’s R-rated action thriller, The Beekeeper getting closer to its release, fans to find out how much money it is expected to make. Will it be a success story for the action icon, or will it bomb? Here’s what the early projections suggest.
How much money is The Beekeeper predicted to make at the box office?
MGM’s The Beekeeper’s early predictions state that it would open between $8 million and $13 million domestically and end up with a domestic total of $25 million – $41 million.
As per Box Office Pro’s long-range predictions, the movie won’t top $50 million by the end of its box office run. $25 – 45 million at the domestic box office is the typical range for Statham’s successful solo R-rated action movies including The Mechanic, The Transporter franchise, Wrath of Man, and others. So, The Beekeeper isn’t expected to perform any differently.
Will The Beekeeper flop or succeed?
With The Beekeeper’s current box office predictions, it does stand a chance of breaking even and turning in a profit. But depending on its production budget, it could also turn out to be a flop.
Considering that The Beekeeper’s budget hasn’t been revealed, it’d be tough to predict whether it’d be a success or a flop. 2023 saw two of Jason Statham’s The Expendables 4 and Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre bombing at the box office. So, there is a chance for The Beekeeper to follow suit. After all, it’d be competing with other films including Mean Girls and The Book of Clarence releasing on January 12, 2023.
But Statham commands a bigger overseas audience with his Fast and Furious and The Meg movies being great examples of that. So, all eyes will be on the international numbers that The Beekeeper produces. Its overseas performance will determine whether it’ll be a flop or a success.
