Following the successful debut of the first film, Netflix announced a sequel in May 2020 with Joe Russo returning to write, Hargrave returning to direct and Hemsworth returning in the lead.

In addition to the returns of the Russos, Hargrave and Hemsworth, Henry Jackman and Alex Belcher returned to compose the score.
Extraction 2 was released by Netflix on June 16, 2023, and received positive reviews from critics for its action sequences and cast performances.
