Returning to the role of Tyler Rake, Extraction 2 sees Chris Hemsworth back as an Australian weapons expert turned hero who is ready to risk life and limb to save the day. We mean this figuratively of course, as Rake barely survived the events of Extraction, a movie based on the graphic novel Ciudad by Ande Parks, Joe Russo and Anthony Russo.
While the mission in the original film took the character to Bangladesh to rescue the son of an Indian drug kingpin, in the sequel, Rake heads to Europe to take on a Georgian gangster in an effort to save an entire family. Will his skills again be pushed to the limits?
