Chris Hemsworth’s Extraction 2 Changed Its Original Opening, And The Director’s Reason Is Spot On

Chris Hemsworth stands ready to fight in a jail riot in Extraction 2.

The insanity that is Extraction 2 is something that seems to have pleased both fans of Chris Hemsworth and the new franchise he’s helped start. With the sequel to what’s considered to be one of the best action movies on the modern market, there was an early temptation to replicate the feat of a seemingly one-take action set-piece from its predecessor. However, the film’s director, Sam Hargrave, revealed that this plan was shifted in a pretty significant way with a reason that was pretty spot on. 

During an interview with CinemaBlend’s own Sean O’Connell, Hargrave was on hand alongside his Extraction franchise star to dish on the ins and outs of this budding saga. It’s here that it was revealed that this new showcase of slaughter was originally going to open the movie. Which, if it had happened, would have been a pretty unique statement in the second adventure of Tyler Rake (Chris Hemsworth).
