EXTRACTION ON NETFLIX
Chris Hemsworth is a Fearless Mercenary
Chris Hemsworth is back with a new film and this time, it looks like he won’t be using his comedic chops. He stars in the upcoming Netflix action movie Extraction, produced by the Avengers: Endgame directors Joe and Anthony Russo and directed by Sam Hargrave, as a black-market mercenary. He’s no god of thunder this time.
Extraction follows Tyler Rake (Hemsworth), a mercenary hired to rescue the kidnapped son of an incarcerated international crime lord. With nothing to lose, Rake sets out to free the kid from his captors in one of the most impenetrable cities. Caught in the middle of a battle between warring drug lords, Rake soon discovers the mission is even more deadly than he initially anticipated.
With theaters closed, for now, this Netflix movie may take the place of the usual summer blockbuster slate of action and adventure films. And we have to say we are very thankful that even in these trying times, Netflix is continuing to stream new and exciting content.
Joe Russo wrote the script for Extraction, based on the graphic novel Ciudad. In addition to Hemsworth, Extraction stars David Harbour, Rudhraksh Jaiswal, Pankaj Tripathi and Randeep Hooda.
Watch Extraction on Netflix, starting April 24, 2020.
