The Russo Brothers Want to Take an MCU Approach to Their ‘Extraction’ Franchise

Just because the Russo brothers aren’t working on Marvel anymore doesn’t mean they won’t work with Marvel actors. We see this with Tom Holland’s upcoming movie Cherry. As well as the Extraction franchise they’re building with Chris Hemsworth. Joe and Anthony Russo are working on a sequel to the 2020 Netflix film, where Hemsworth will return to star. And write and direct apparently.

Apparently, the Russo brothers have a whole world-building idea when it comes to Extraction. Extraction’s direct Sam Hargrave revealed the MCU style the brothers are going for:

“I think Joe and Anthony, that whole AGBO team, are brilliant in that building upon the Marvel universe aspect where a lot of these films connect and intersect in their journeys with characters. They’re building on that model in the Extraction universe and there is a lot of opportunities to follow characters that people have shown an affinity for and sounds like they want to know more about.”

Hargrave added:

“So, [as far as] my personal involvement, I would like to be as involved as possible but I also don’t want to be greedy. There’s a lot of other super talented filmmakers out there who would have very unique visions and would bring something new and fresh to the franchise that I would be excited to see as a fan. Hopefully we get to do the second one with all the same team and really establish the franchise, if you will. But from there I would love to see, as a fan of cinema, other young directors who, again, can push the level of action.”

Are you looking forward to a sequel to Extraction?
