Netflix Big Action Film Filming Action-packed Movies Director Fan Fans Respect Sequel Work Movie Hr

Early in 2020, when it seemed like we might be deprived of fun, new movies, Netflix released Extraction. The action-packed feature stars Chris Hemsworth, is written by Joe Russo, and directed by Sam Hargrave. With a compelling, streamlined story and plenty of bone-crunching, nerve-rattling, attention-grabbing action set pieces, Extraction quickly became one of the biggest movies ever released on Netflix. Not long after its late April release, a sequel to Extraction was greenlit at Netflix with Russo and Hargrave set to return to their respective roles. (It's still unclear if Hemsworth will be back, especially with Extraction's cliffhanger ending.) Since we learned Extraction 2 was a go back in April 2020, the movie has been suspended in the early stages of production. Russo is still working on the script (although fans still have zero idea what to expect story-wise) and, as of December 2020, the word on the street was that filming would kick off some time in late 2021.
