Netflix has released the official first trailer for Tyler Rake 2, the gripping sequel to the blockbuster action thriller starring Chris Hemsworth as the battle-hardened mercenary.
Chris Hemsworth is back as Tyler Rake, about 18 months after the original film's explosive Netflix debut. The star confirmed the hero's return at Netflix's TUDUM global fan event on September 25, easing fans' worries over that intense cliffhanger ending.
This gripping two-minute trailer kicks off with the first film's heart-stopping finale: Tyler Rake, shot in the throat, tumbles from a bridge into the Dhaka River. But he defies the odds—his eyes open beneath the surface, and he surges back to fight another day.
Returning director Sam Hargrave helms the sequel, with Joe Russo back as screenwriter. The film is produced by Joe and Anthony Russo, the visionary siblings behind Avengers: Endgame.
Netflix is all-in on Tyler Rake after the original racked up 99 million views in its first four weeks—one of the platform's biggest original film launches. Whispers suggest the Russo brothers are plotting an expanded cinematic universe around the character.
