Every Chiseled Angle of Chris Hemsworth at Extraction 2's Manila Premiere
Chris Hemsworth is here. In Manila. Breathing our air.
The actor is currently in the Philippines to kick off the global press tour of Netflix’s Extraction 2, the highly-anticipated sequel to the AGBO production by director Sam Hargrave and the Russo brothers. Hargrave is also in town to promote the film, which is setting itself up to be one of the biggest action films of the summer.
In Extraction 2, Tyler Rake is revealed to be alive—only to dive headfirst into another deadly mission, this time with the harsh Georgian winter as the backdrop. If the trailer is anything to go by, the film is going to be absolutely bonkers. Hargrave says it’ll be “bigger and more exciting” than the first film, and Hemsworth revealed that the stunts were so crazy that they had to actually “land a helicopter on a moving train.”
It’s only fitting that Netflix kicked off this “crazy” action film with the wildest fans in the world. Chris Hemsworth and Sam Hargrave headed to the SM Mall of Asia for Extraction’s APAC Premiere, where they met a throng of fans. The screams were deafening, but Hemsworth persevered as he signed every poster and sign that was thrust in his direction by rabid titas. Of which there were many.

“Thank you so much for all your support and love for the first film. We appreciate your enthusiasm and excitement for the second one. We wouldn’t be here without you,” said Chris Hemsworth to the Filipino audience.
At least 800 Filipino fans attended the fan event, with some traveling from hours away just to get a glimpse of the actor. One lucky superfan even had the chance to go on stage and hug Hemsworth. Cue the roars of jealousy. You know when someone has star power when they throw grown men and women (this is Pride month, after all) into a whimpering, delirious frenzy.
But enough words. Words aren’t what people want right now when they can have every chiseled angle of Chris Hemsworth at Extraction 2’s Manila premiere. And we live to serve the people.
Catch Extraction 2 on Netflix on June 16.
