Snatch brought Brad Pitt and Jason Statham together in a sharp, stylish crime caper a quarter-century ago. Fast-forward 25 years, and the two are back in competition, not on screen this time but at the box office with F1 vs The Beekeeper.
Pitt's new sports drama F1, made with a towering budget reportedly touching $300 million, has overtaken Statham's The Beekeeper's domestic box office collection ($66 million), earning $72 million in North America. However, it is still trailing behind the surprising 2024 strong performer by less than a million in total earnings.
