The first photos from Chris Hemsworth's Netflix film Extraction have been unveiled.
The film follows Tyler Rake (Hemsworth), a mercenary-for-hire who is tasked with rescuing the kidnapped son (Rudhraksh Jaiswal) of an international crime lord. As Rake tries to extract the child, the two develop a bond that offers him a chance at redemption.
Extraction will mark the directorial debut of Sam Hargrave. Hargrave worked with Hemsworth as a stunt coordinator and second unit director on Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame. He also served as Chris Evans’ Captain America stunt double in several Marvel films.
"You've got a guy who has a dark past and has done some very violent things as a way to make a living," Hargrave said about Hemsworth’s character. "The interesting thing about [his] character isn't his physical bravery but his emotional cowardice."
Directed by Sam Hargrave and written by Joe Russo, Extraction stars Chris Hemsworth, Rudhraksh Jaiswal, Manoj Bajpayee, Randeep Hooda, Pankaj Tripathi, Derek Luke, Marc Donato and David Harbour. It is scheduled to be released on April 24, 2020 on Netflix.
