\n\tAmazon<\/a> is in choppy waters after accidentally leaking Jason Statham<\/a>\u2018s latest big-budget action pic Mutiny<\/a> on its Prime Video<\/a> service days before the movie is released in theaters.<\/p>\n

\n\tDeadline understands that the movie was up for a matter of hours earlier this week after a mistake led to it being posted on Prime\u2019s product detail page that typically shows trailers.<\/p>\n

\n\tSome subscribers couldn\u2019t believe what they were watching. One posted to X<\/a>: \u201cI\u2019m watching Jason Statham\u2019s new movie Mutiny, streaming on Amazon for free right now. This has to be a huge mistake, right? My theater has showtimes starting this week!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAnother user said:<\/a> \u201cSomeone is getting fired over at Amazon. They uploaded Jason Statham\u2019s new movie Mutiny on Prime a day before it hits theaters.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tLionsgate is releasing the action thriller this weekend in U.S. theaters and is one of a number of buyers understood to be very unimpressed. According to multiple sources close to the project, the film is already being pirated in different territories. That\u2019s a problem for Lionsgate and potentially an even bigger problem for international buyers, some of whom who aren\u2019t releasing until later. We hear the film opened well in France and Middle East yesterday before the leak snafu came to light.<\/p>\n

\n\tOverseas distributors, like Lionsgate, have put millions into acquiring the film and marketing it. It\u2019s a $50 million-plus net movie. Lionsgate is understood to have paid eight-figures for it. We hear that some cinema chains are also up in arms.<\/p>\n

\n\tNow the question we\u2019re hearing from those close to the movie is what Amazon, a Premium VOD partner on the pic, can or will do to make good.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis is an unprecedented situation,\u201d one fuming international buyer told us. \u201cIt\u2019s a major f*ck-up. I\u2019ve never been in this situation before. What\u2019s clear is that this is a multimillion-dollar problem for Amazon, and buyers will expect a check to be written to help resolve this.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tOne person who worked on the project said: \u201cWhat the hell? There are serious repercussions for distributors here.\u201d Another overseas buyer simply told us, \u201cOh my god.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tWe understand Lionsgate\u2019s anti-piracy team is trying to mitigate the damage. Meanwhile, international buyers are trying to coordinate a formal message to Amazon. <\/p>\n

\n\tJean-Fran\u00e7ois Richet directs Mutiny, in which Statham is framed for murdering his billionaire industrialist boss, leaving him on the run as he works to uncover an international conspiracy. Statham produces with Marc Butan.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis isn\u2019t the first time a streamer has got into hot water for being lax over the safety of a movie. Netflix is currently being sued<\/a> for $105 million after a hard drive of an unreleased Nicolas Cage movie, the World War II thriller Fortitude, was stolen from its office<\/a>. The lawsuit faults Netflix for losing the copy, but the studio has denied responsibility for the loss, saying it was delivered \u201cwithout proper industry-standard safeguards.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n\tAmazon, Lionsgate, reps for Statham and the film\u2019s producers declined comment on the Mutiny leak.<\/p>\n
