Chris Hemsworth – famous for playing the son of Odin Thor, will be back with his guns and power-packed action performance in ‘Extraction 2‘.

After suffering from a deadly injury, Tyler was presumed to be clinically dead, but this new mission has him on his feet, fighting off the villains and handling huge machine guns.
In a conversation with Collider, producer Joe Russo explained, “It’s very different from Extraction 1, which we like. It’s its own movie in that regard. It has a different color schematic. It’s set in a different part of the world. It has a different pace, a different tone than the first one.” He further added, “We’re really excited about it, and we think it was beautifully shot. Hemsworth’s fantastic in it. And we’re excited to share it with audiences.”
