Chris Hemsworth returns as Black Ops mercenary Tyler Rake to lead the Extraction 2 cast. As he takes up a new mission nine months after being presumed dead, Rake must infiltrate one of the deadliest prisons in the world to rescue a Georgian gangster’s family. Like its predecessor, Extraction 2 is filled with hand-to-hand combat and situations of extreme survival. While stuntman and Extraction filmmaker, Sam Hargrave, resumes his directorial duties for the sequel, frequent collaborator Joe Russo pens the screenplay. The action-thriller is based on the graphic novel Ciudad, and is a joint effort between the screenwriter, his brother, Anthony Russo, Ande Parks, Fernando León González, and Eric Skillman.
