The official trailer forExtraction 2has debuted online – and, if you’ve ever questioned the lengths Chris Hemsworth will go to in order to make a great action movie, you won’t do so after watching it.
The eagerly anticipated follow-up to 2019’sExtractionputs Hemsworth’s Tyler Rake in the line of fire – both literally and metaphorically – once more. This time, the black ops mercenary is tasked with infiltrating a prison to rescue the family of a Georgia-based gangster. Given how thrilling and action-packed it looks,Extraction 2is certainly worthy of its place on our most anticipatednew Netflix movieslist.
Check out the official trailer below:
Well, if the footage in that teaser is anything to go by, Hemsworth (Thor: Love and Thunder,Welcome to Spiderhead) is leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of action movie greatness. Okay, we already knewHemsworth’s training regime was “utterly ridiculous"for this movie, but to see him go to such lengths to ensure thatExtraction 2is as heart-pounding and unrelenting as it can be – he even gets set on fire at one point! – is impressive.
Extraction 2’s first trailer comes 24 hours after its official artwork was released online. As revealed byNetflix, the three posterstease various parts ofExtraction 2’s pulsating, 21-minute long ‘oner’– an industry term used to describe a lengthy filmed sequence that appears as if it’s been shot on a single camera. In actuality, such sequences are filmed in shorter segments before being edited together to make them look like one continuous take.
ConsideringExtraction 2’s ‘oner’ is almost twice the length of a similar scene we saw in its predecessor, we’re in for a far grander spectacle this time around. Oh, and back in September 2022, we also learned thatExtraction 2will have twice the action of the film preceding it, so we really are going to get more bang for our buck in this flick. One to watch out for on ourbest Netflix movieslist in June? You bet.
