Chris Hemsworth is back as Tyler Rake in Extraction 2 to exact his revenge. Feel the tension in the new Netflix movie!

Tyler Rake  is back! Chris Hemsworth was on hand at Netflix’s Saturday Tudum fan event to announce the news. “If you thought our first movie pushed the boundaries, wait until you see what Sam and I have planned for the next instalment”.

The teaser begins where the original ended, with Tyler Rake falling off a bridge into the river after being shot in the neck. Tyler Rake holds his breath and bleeding neck to survive. “Tyler, you don’t drown by falling into the river,” says Mahajan’s voice, “you drown by drowning in it”. Then he shoots himself to the surface with all his might!

The official synopsis reads, “In 2020, the world meets a new hero: Tyler Rake (Chris Hemsworth), a fearless black-market mercenary on the deadliest mission of his career. But what seems lost … can still be saved”. Directed by Sam Hargrave, the action-packed, spine-tingling franchise is produced by Joe and Anthony Russo, directors of Avengers: The Final Destination.

For Extraction 2, Sam Hargrave wanted to go beyond the action sequences. “We talked about that in detail. Honestly, I’m always looking around my house or town for ways to do something fun or different with action. I’m thinking like there’s a camera behind my eyes, and I’m constantly asking, ‘What would be an interesting way to capture this,’ ‘Oh, that would be cool. So I’m always cataloguing and trying to figure out different, fun ways to capture action and different action scenes; that would be great. Joe and I have talked a lot about it, we’ve come up with some ideas, we’ve thought about them, and now I’m excited to see how we can make it all happen.”

If you need a primer before you jump in: in Extraction 2, “we find ourselves in the world of arms and drug dealers, where a young boy becomes a pawn in a notorious war between drug lords. Trapped by kidnappers in one of the world’s most impenetrable cities, his rescue depends on the unmatched skills of mercenary Tyler Rake. Still, Rake is a broken man with nothing to lose and a death wish of his own, making an already deadly mission almost impossible.”

The original action-thriller was written by Joe Russo and based on the comic book Ciudad, produced by Ande Parks, Fernando León González, Eric Skillman and his brother Anthony Russo. The Extraction stars Chris Hemsworth (Thor: Love and Thunder), Rudhraksh Jaiswal (The Tenant), Manoj Bajpayee, Randeep Hooda, Pankaj Tripathi, Derek Luke, Marc Donato and David Harbour (Stranger Things). The film is currently available on Netflix.
