Netflix has officially greenlit the third installment of its blockbuster action franchise, with Chris Hemsworth returning as Tyler Rake alongside Idris Elba and Golshifteh Farahani. After years of anticipation since the initial announcement at Netflix’s Tudum event in June 2023, production is finally scheduled to commence this summer, positioning the film for a likely 2027 release on the streaming platform.

The sequel will pick up directly from the cliffhanger ending of Extraction 2, where Tyler Rake and Nik Khan found themselves arrested by Austrian authorities following their brutal confrontation with Zurab Radiani. Idris Elba’s enigmatic character Alcott reappeared in the final moments to offer the pair a deal; freedom in exchange for taking on a dangerous new assignment for his unidentified boss. Sam Hargrave returns to direct, with David Weil taking over screenwriting duties from Joe Russo, who remains attached as a producer through AGBO. Principal photography is set to run from June through October 2026 across Sydney, Australia and select European locations, marking the first time the franchise will film in Hemsworth’s home country. While plot specifics remain under wraps, the setup suggests Tyler Rake will face his most complex extraction mission yet while navigating the uncertain motives of Alcott’s mysterious superior.
