Pierce Brosnan Among Five New Cast Members to Join Chris Hemsworth in EXTRACTION 3 at Netflix
Chris Hemsworth is returning for Extraction 3 at Netflix, and five new cast members have been announced to join him. They include Golden Globe nominee Pierce Brosnan (MobLand), Don Lee (Train to Busan), Joe Taslim (The Furious), Chi Lewis-Parry (28 Years Later: The Bone Temple) and Siena Agudong (Amazon’s upcoming Carrie series).
Lee joins after signing on to star in Tygo, a Korean-language entry in the franchise centered on his former child soldier turned mercenary, which is in post-production.
Extraction 3‘s logline is being kept under wraps, as are the roles of the other newcomers. The film is currently filming in Australia, with Idris Elba and Golshifteh Farahani also co-starring alongside Hemsworth.
Hailing from the Russo Brothers’ AGBO and Hemsworth’s Wild State, the Extraction films are based on the graphic novel Ciudad from Ande Parks and illustrator Fernando Leon Gonzalez. They follow Hemsworth’s Tyler Rake, an Australian mercenary taking on high stakes rescue missions the world over.
After directing the first two installments — both of which formerly held spots on Netflix’s Most Popular Films list — Sam Hargrave is back at the helm, working from a script by David Weil, based on a story by Ande Parks, Joe Russo & Anthony Russo.
