The first spinoff film in Netflix’s Extraction franchise has officially finished filming.
AGBO, the production company run by the Russo brothers, confirmed the news on Instagram with a wrap photo showing a chair bearing the Extraction: Tygo logo and a small axe resting on the seat.
The spinoff doesn’t star Chris Hemsworth. Instead, Don Lee — known for playing Gilgamesh in Eternals — takes the lead as Tygo, a mercenary who goes on a revenge mission after a botched job lands him in the middle of the Korean underworld.
Lee Jin-uk from Squid Game and Blackpink’s Lisa Manobal also star in the film. Lee Sang-yong directed it from a script by Cha Woo-jin, with the Russo brothers producing.
The original Extraction launched in 2020, with Hemsworth playing mercenary Tyler Rake. Its sequel dropped in 2023 and scored 80% on Rotten Tomatoes — well above the first film’s 67%.
The main franchise is still moving forward too. Extraction 3 is in pre-production and expected to land in 2027, with Hemsworth returning alongside Idris Elba, Olga Kurylenko, and Golshifteh Farahani.
On top of that, a TV series called Mercenary: An Extraction Series is also in the works, starring Omar Sy, Boyd Holbrook, and Natalie Dormer across eight episodes.
