A Working Man 2025

The film begins at a construction site where Levon Cade, played by Jason Statham, is overseeing his team as they prepare to start their day’s work. Levon has a strong bond with the Garcia family, who own the construction company, treating them with the affection one would show to family.

While on the job, Levon witnesses a group of thugs harassing one of his workers. After kindly asking the thugs to leave, they continue their assault, prompting Levon to respond by throwing a bucket of nails at them and engaging in a physical confrontation. Despite the arrival of more attackers, Levon successfully defends himself, and when questioned by the young worker about his bravery, he simply advises him to get back to work. Jenny Garcia, portrayed by Arianna Rivas, the teenage daughter of the Garcia family, observes this incident but chooses to remain silent. Instead, she urges Levon to promise her support, which he does.

Levon is also a devoted single father to Meredith, affectionately called “Merry,” played by Isla Gie. Merry resides with her grandfather, Dr. Roth, who harbors resentment towards Levon, believing he is responsible for his daughter’s—Levon’s wife—death. While Levon explains to his attorneys that her death was a suicide during their service overseas, he knows that Dr. Roth has the financial means to employ expensive lawyers against him. Nevertheless, Levon is determined to fight for his daughter’s custody.

One night, while out clubbing with friends, Jenny falls victim to a criminal couple, Viper and Artemis, played by Emmett J Scanlan and Eve Mauro, respectively. They abduct her when she tries to assist a drunk friend by using a glue trap to silence her.

The following Monday, Levon is approached by Joe and Carla Garcia, played by Michael Peña and Noemi Gonzalez, who inform him of Jenny’s disappearance since Friday night. Feeling helpless with the authorities, Joe seeks Levon’s help, aware of his background as a former Green Beret skilled in tracking criminals. Although Levon initially resists the idea of returning to his old ways, he soon realizes the importance of helping the Garcias.

Levon starts his search for Jenny by revisiting the club where she was last seen, leading him to confront Johnny, a bartender tied to the criminal activities. In a tense scene, Levon uses extreme methods to extract information from Johnny, resulting in a violent showdown that leaves several dead. The aftermath catches the attention of Wolo Kolisnyk, played by Jason Flemyng, a high-ranking captain within the Bratva organization.

Taking matters into his own hands, Levon confronts Wolo in his own home, after witnessing him assault his wife. The encounter escalates, with Levon eventually drowning Wolo in his pool after demanding information about Jenny. This act prompts Wolo’s brother, Symon Kharchenko, portrayed by Andrej Kaminsky, to send his sons, Danya and Vanko (played by Greg Kolpakchi and Piotr Witkowski), after Levon.

To track down Dimi—who Levon has learned is essential to the trafficking operation—he meets with a local drug lord, Dutch (Chidi Ajufo). Initially pretending to be a dealer, Levon earns Dutch’s respect, which proves crucial in maneuvering through the criminal underworld. However, Jenny’s situation grows more dire as Viper and Artemis prepare to sell her to Mr. Broward (played by Kenneth Collard), a sinister character with malicious intentions.

As Levon’s investigation progresses, he finds himself ambushed and captured by Danya and Vanko, leading to a harrowing escape where he exacts revenge for the death of Wolo. This causes the conflict with Symon to escalate further, marking a personal vendetta against Levon.

Despite the mounting chaos, Levon manages to rescue Merry from a fire, demonstrating his dedication as a father. Meanwhile, Jenny, demonstrating her own resilience, fights back against her captors, only to be recaptured by corrupt officers on the criminal payroll.

The climax intensifies when Levon finally locates the compound where Jenny is held captive. There, he confronts Dimi and the traffickers in a brutal showdown, using every resource at his disposal to eliminate the criminal threats. The intense action culminates in Levon rescuing Jenny, where they overpower Viper and Artemis, leading to a thrilling escape.

In the aftermath of his confrontations, Levon returns Jenny to her relieved family, restoring their faith in safety. Their heartfelt reunion signifies not just the end of a nightmare but also a new beginning for Levon, who later reunites with Merry, acknowledging the values of family and home.

By the end of the tale, Levon emerges not just as a fighter but as a protector, ready to embrace his new life with both Jenny and Merry, promising that he is finally home.
