Chris Hemsworth talks Tyler Rake's brutality in new 'Extraction 2' featurette.
Chris Hemsworth does not need a magical hammer when it comes to performing his own stunts and Extraction 2 has tested his limits. In the new feature, he performed stunts with helicopter blades 15 feet away from him, for another sequence he performed with 400 extras in sub-zero temperature, learned over 2500 moves of choreography, and even got lit on fire. The Thor actor did not leave any stone unturned when it came to cementing his position as a real action star.
“This movie is exhilarating. It was nerve-wracking, with a huge amount of action. It’s been quite a journey,” says Hemsworth, adding, “I remember saying the first film was the most intense action film I’ve done. This time around it was even more intense.” The original feature set in Bangladesh saw Tyler Rake saving a boy from his kidnappers and even giving up his life to do so, till he was brought back for the upcoming feature.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Bringing Tyler back to life works as the trailer sets the theme that he needs to figure out why he fought his way back. His emotional arc is clear, and it’s topped with another action pack feature, “Extraction 2 is a bigger, crazier, epic extravaganza with car chases, you got high falls, fistfights,” tells returning director Sam Hargrave.

His knowledge of action, stunts, and how to tell a story within it, is impressive. It’s a perfect collaboration.” Just like John Wick helmer Chad Sathelski, Hargrave is a stuntman turned director, and it reflects in his perfectly crafted action sequences and scenes.
