After premiering Extraction 2 on June 16 on Netflix, Chris Hemsworth and Sam Hargrave officially announced that the action franchise was getting expanded with Extraction 3 at Netflix’s Tudum on June 17, 2023. Isn’t that exciting!
The first Extraction movie was released in April 2020 and broke several records for the streaming platform. It was based on a graphic novel, Ciudad, by Ande Parks and was adapted by Parks himself as well as the Russo brothers. It became the most-watched original film on Netflix and reached 99 million households in its first four weeks post-premiere. Then, it made its way to the Top 10 list once again on the Fourth of July weekend. This made the film rank fourth position on the most-watched streaming film list of 2020.
Thanks to this success, Netflix soon renewed the movie for a sequel in May. Extraction 2 was then released in June 2023 on Netflix with Joe Russo returning as the screenwriter for it. Until now, the reviews for the movie are excellent and we are sure it is bound to break some records as well.
