In the Netflix action movie “Extraction 2,” Chris Hemsworth reprises his role as Tyler Rake, a mercenary who is hired for yet another dangerous operation after just recovering from the wounds he sustained on the previous one. It is an action-packed adventure, directed by Sam Hargrave, that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats as Rake overcomes obstacles that seem insurmountable in order to save the lives of innocent people.
The action in this movie is ten times more intense than in the first movie in the series, which was praised for its amazing action scenes. If you enjoyed “Extraction 2,” you probably want to know what the franchise’s future holds. ‘Extraction’: Will there be a third installment? Let’s investigate. Spoilers follow.
Will Extraction 3 Happen?
On Netflix, “Extraction 2” was made available on June 16, 2023. The two-hour movie earned positive reviews from critics, who praised the expertly orchestrated action scenes. The series’ opening movie was well-received by viewers and quickly rose to the top spot among Netflix original movies in terms of viewership. Nearly a month after its debut, the streaming service announced a sequel as a result of this. It wouldn’t be shocking if ‘Extraction 2’ were renewed for a follow-up if the audience responded in a similar way.
As of right now, “Extraction 3” hasn’t received any official announcements from Netflix. However, a number of clues point to the possibility that another movie is already in the works. The conclusion of “Extraction 2” is the biggest giveaway. Idris Elba’s nameless character approaches Rake after he completes his assignment successfully to congratulate him on a job well done and offer to work together again. He discusses his boss, the identity of whom he withholds, and says that Rake is already needed for another position.
The sequel could have had a different ending if the filmmakers weren’t sure how “Extraction” would turn out in the end. If they weren’t sure they could make another movie in the franchise, they wouldn’t have set things up for it. That the filmmakers were planning forward when they created that finale for “Extraction 2” is also demonstrated by the inclusion of Idris Elba in a cameo that acts as an introduction for a larger role in the upcoming installment.

Tyler Rake’s tale might continue in the future, but he withheld details and insisted that it would depend on how the second movie was accepted. He continued by saying that there is a tonne of uncharted territory in the “Extraction” universe. This might result in additional sequels or even spin-offs.
The biggest role since Thor appears to be ready for actor Chris Hemsworth to return in. Hemsworth as Tyler, Golshifteh Farahani as Nik, and Idris Elba as their new boss are anticipated to return in “Extraction 3.” As Tyler’s wife, Olga Kurylenko might return, providing further insight on his history. A new cast will be added to the movie with a new goal, which brings in a new group of individuals.
The likelihood of “Extraction 3” is strong given that the public is expected to enjoy the film and that the actors and crew are eager to work on a sequel. Within a month or so, Netflix should reveal its future, giving it time to assess the reaction of the audience. If the third movie is approved, we anticipate it will be released on Netflix sooner than “Extraction 2” was. Following a production hiatus brought on by factors like Covid-19, the first “Extraction” was released in 2020. We anticipate that production on the third movie will progress more quickly, and it will debut sometime in early 2025.
