Watch This: Behind-the-Scenes of the Stunts in ‘Extraction 2’ Sequel

Extraction 2 Behind-the-Scenes

“His knowledge for action & stunts, and how to tell a story within it, it’s impressive.” –Chris Hemsworth discussing director Sam Hargrave. Netflix’s new spectacular action movie Extraction 2 is now available to watch as of today. They’ve released a new behind-the-scenes featurette to build up the hype. The movie is a direct follow-up to the Netflix action film Extraction from 2020 – and it’s getting much better reviews than that one. Stuntman turned filmmaker Sam Hargrave returns to direct the sequel, alongside producers Joe & Anthony Russo. Chris Hemsworth co-stars along with Golshifteh Farahani, Daniel Bernhardt, and Tinatin Dalakishvili. Hargrave is an experienced stunt man / fight coordinator himself and knows how to pull off incredible sequences. There’s one long 20-minute take in this, along with a massive amount of other action to enjoy. The marketing for this movie kicked off with a making of video last year, but I’m glad to see Netflix release more footage of how crazy it was to shoot all these intense stunts. Fire it up below. // Continue Reading ›
