From director David Ayer (Suicide Squad), The Beekeeper sees Jason Statham as Adam Clay, a former operative from a secret service-type organization known as the Beekeepers, living a quiet life far away from the undercover missions of his past.
He now lives in an area surrounded by nature where he tends to his colonies of bees, his only friend in the world being his kind landlady, Eloise Parker (Phylicia Rashad).

In a precious piece of behind-the-scenes movie trivia, it’s fun for anyone (whether you’re going to watch The Beekeeper or not) to know that Jason Statham actually embraced his character’s lifestyle to get into the role.
And no, we don’t mean that he joined a top-secret operative, although we could absolutely see that happening as well. Instead, the actor learned a bit about beekeeping, getting his hands sticky with honey, and learning from professionals in the industry.
