For many people, Extraction was one of the few positives of the pandemic era. The action thriller film, released in April 2020, became Netflix's most-watched original film at the time with over 99 million viewers in its first four weeks. Now, three years later, the streamer has released the first trailer for the film's sequel titled Extraction 2.
Extraction helmer Chris Hemsworth shared the trailer, which is available on YouTube, on his official Instagram page, with the caption, "You only get one shot at a second chance. EXTRACTION 2 debuts globally June 16, only on @Netflix. #TylerRakeLives". According to the video, Tyler Rake, Australian black ops mercenary, who seemingly died at the end of the first film, is alive.
The trailer provides a glimpse into Rake's life nine months after the events of the original film. It opens with a prison scene, where Rake attempts to rescue a young woman named Ketevan. After, it pans to a riot in the prison yard and shows Rake trying to protect himself and Ketevan from the chaos while fighting through the crowd. Finally, it shows Rake taking down a helicopter with a machine gun while on a moving train.
Extraction 2's official logline reads, "After barely surviving the events of the first movie, Rake is back as the Australian black ops mercenary, tasked with another deadly mission: rescuing the battered family of a ruthless Georgian gangster from the prison where they are being held.
