LOS ANGELES, Apr 6: Shia LaBeouf’s “Man Down” has flopped in the UK during its limited theatrical debut after it reportedly only sold one ticket, raking in 7 pounds when it opened at a cinema in Burnley over the weekend.

The movie revolves around a soldier searching for his estranged son and battling PTSD after his return from Afghanistan.

Directed by Dito Montile, it’s also supported by the likes of Gary Oldman, Jai Courtney and Kate Mara, reported Ace Showbiz.

The film premiered at 2016 Venice Film Festival before playing at the Toronto International Film Festival and heading to US theatres in December.

It fared much better in the US, collecting an estimated USD 454,490. It’s now available for video on demand and will be released on DVD and Blu-ray next month

I heard this story yesterday on FBN but I thought they said it sold one ticket in NYC. Oh well...still a huge embarrassment.
