Amazon Prime Streams Jason Statham's 'Mutiny' Early, Sparking Firing Jokes

A major blunder occurred at Amazon Prime Video when their system accidentally made Jason Statham's new movie 'Mutiny' available for streaming in the US, a day before its theatrical debut. The film was set to release in theaters on Friday but somehow ended up being viewable on Amazon Prime Video from Wednesday morning until an hour later. During that time, some subscribers were able to watch the 95-minute film.

A screenshot of the 'Mutiny' page on Prime Video US showed that it was indeed available for streaming, with a 'resume' bar indicating that viewers could pick up where they left off. Several users took to social media to share their surprise and amusement at watching the movie early, joking that someone at Amazon would be 'getting fired' over the mistake.

'Mutiny' stars Jason Statham as Cole Reed, a former Special Forces soldier turned elite personal bodyguard, in a role that seems tailored to his action hero persona. The film is being distributed by Lionsgate and was produced by MadRiver Pictures alongside Punch Palace Productions, which is owned by Statham himself.
