[Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Extraction 2]

So you’ve seen stuntman coordinator-turned-director Sam Hargrave and the Russo Brothers’ sequel Extraction 2, starring Chris Hemsworth, and you’re curious about that ending. If you missed out on our early screening and Q&A, Collider's Steve Weintraub did get to speak with Hargrave ahead of the movie’s Netflix premiere – which you can read or watch here – and saved the spoiler questions for after fans got to see Tyler Rake’s (Hemsworth) triumphant rise from the dead.

Extraction 2 picks up shortly after the events of Extraction, where audiences were introduced to Tyler Rake, a John Wick-esque Australian mercenary with less seedy criminal underground lore and more reality-grounded heroics. Rake's character, due to his special-ops background and doggedness, comes off as near-mythical in combat, and with Joe Russo penning the scripts and Hargrave governing elaborate action set pieces, we have another sequel that aims to top itself in cinematic action. After Rake plummeted to what fans believed to be his watery grave, Extraction 2 resurrects him, this time on a mission to rescue a battered family from a Georgian gangster.

Who is Idris Elba Talking About at the End of Extraction 2?

In addition to Hemsworth, Extraction 2 stars Golshifteh Farahani, Adam Bessa, Olga Kurylenko, Tinatin Dalakishvili, Andro Jafaridze, Daniel Bernhardt, and at the very end of the movie, Idris Elba makes a second surprise cameo. Because so little is revealed about Elba’s character and his mysterious employer, Weintraub was curious to know if Hargrave and Russo discussed who would play this boss in future films. To intimidate someone like Rake, it's implied it would have to be a pretty impressive name. Hargrave tells us, “We know who the character wants to be,” but adds, “We don’t yet know who that actor is who’s going to portray that character.” Though they haven’t tapped a name just yet, Hargrave does go on say that:

“By saying something like that, what you're doing is, you just had two pretty wild movies with Tyler Rake. What is going to be upping the ante, what are the stakes? How are they elevated? And by just dropping a single line, like, “He's a gnarly mother-effer,” you're like, “Okay, one line then says this is someone who might be in the same league as Tyler Rake. Now, I'm intrigued.” And so, as a character, we know who this person is going to have to be. Who is going to portray that? I think that's the beauty of that line. It's like, now that single line can go out and attract a lot of cool, amazing actors to play that wild character. So it's a little bit of both, but I think we wanted to leave it open, and yet, capture the essence of what was needed for the next film for Tyler Rake.”

What's Up With That Extraction 2 Ending?

As far as how that scene played, Hargrave explains that it was very intentional to have Elba come in at the very end. Though “a lot of things throughout the movie changed,” he tells us that with Elba attached, they knew that was the perfect way to bring on the credits. “It was kind of like a version of a post-credits Marvel scene, right? You wanted to have him there at the end again so that people could start to speculate and go, ‘Oh, shoot, they're going to be in a movie together after this.’” And if you were disappointed in the lack of post-credits teasers, that was an intentional decision, Hargrave says, for the simple fact that “you're not really gonna out-Marvel Marvel,” but also because they wanted to allow Rake to move onto the next film “free and clear.”
