Shelter was released in theaters in the United States and United Kingdom on January 30, 2026, after a London premiere on January 20. A Working Man, directed by David Ayer, is expected later in 2025, though no precise date has been announced. Both movies continue Statham’s long‑running streak of high‑stakes action roles.

Shelter was released in US and UK theaters on January 30, 2026. The film had its world premiere in London on January 20, 2026. Based on the trailer and official announcements, it received a limited theatrical release – the trailer explicitly says “Only in theaters January 30.” No delays have been reported.

The London premiere took place eight days before the wide release. As of early 2026, no streaming or digital release date has been announced.

For A Working Man, a precise release date has not been set. The official trailer has been released, but the studio has not confirmed a specific month or day in 2025.

Is Shelter on Netflix or Prime Video? Where to Watch

According to all available sources, Shelter is currently available only in theaters. Neither Netflix nor Prime Video has announced a streaming deal for the film. Many of Statham’s earlier movies have later appeared on Amazon’s platform, but no such arrangement has been confirmed for Shelter.

Will Shelter Be on Prime Video?

It is possible, given that several Statham films (including The Beekeeper and The Meg) have eventually landed on Prime Video. However, no official confirmation exists as of now.

Is Shelter on Any Other Streaming Service?

No. None of the provided sources mention a streaming release on Hulu, Max, Apple TV, or any other service. The theatrical run is the only known outlet.

Uncertainty Around Streaming

None of the sources confirm a streaming or digital release date for Shelter. The only way to watch the film at this time is in select theaters.

What Is Jason Statham’s Other New Movie A Working Man?

A Working Man is an original action thriller starring Jason Statham as a blue‑collar protagonist with a violent past. It is directed by David Ayer, who previously worked with Statham on The Beekeeper. No official plot summary has been released yet, but the trailer suggests a gritty, revenge‑driven story.

When Does A Working Man Come Out?

The release date for A Working Man has not been set. Sources refer to it as a 2025 release, but the exact month and day remain unknown.

Is A Working Man a Sequel?

No, it is an original film. It is not connected to The Beekeeper or any other existing franchise.

Director Connection

David Ayer’s background includes films such as Fury and Suicide Squad. His collaboration with Statham on The Beekeeper turned into a box‑office success, and A Working Man continues that partnership.

What Are All of Jason Statham’s Upcoming Movies in 2025 and 2026?

According to the available research, Statham has two confirmed upcoming projects:

  1. A Working Man – 2025 (theatrical release, date TBA)
  2. Shelter theatrical release – January 30, 2026
  3. Shelter London premiere – January 20, 2026
  4. Shelter digital release – No date announced yet

No other films featuring Jason Statham have been announced for these years. There is no confirmed sequel to The Beekeeper or The Meg at this time.

What Is Confirmed and What Remains Unclear About Statham’s Upcoming Films?

Established Information

  • Shelter release date: January 30, 2026
  • Director of Shelter: Ric Roman Waugh
  • Plot: Statham plays Mason, a recluse on a Scottish island
  • Cast: includes Naomi Ackie, Bill Nighy, Bodhi Rae Breathnach, Daniel Mays
  • Runtime of Shelter: 107 minutes
  • A Working Man director: David Ayer

Uncertainty

  • Streaming availability for Shelter (not on Netflix, Prime Video, or any service yet)
  • Exact release date for A Working Man (only year 2025 is known)
  • Additional Statham projects for 2025‑2026 (only two films announced)
  • Age rating for Shelter (likely R, but not yet rated)

How Do Shelter and A Working Man Compare to Statham’s Earlier Work?

Both films fit Statham’s established formula: a solitary, physically capable man forced into action by a personal crisis. Shelter – with its remote island setting and protective storyline – draws comparisons to The Beekeeper and even The Meg in tone. A Working Man, directed by David Ayer, may lean into a grittier, more grounded style, similar to Ayer’s earlier crime dramas. Statham remains a bankable action star whose films routinely perform well internationally, particularly in markets like China and the UK.
