Our favorite action-packed movie, Nobody, is all set to return with a sequel – Nobody 2. The biggest buzz around town is that actor Colin Hanks has been roped in to play a significant role, and it’s not the good guy! Apparently, Hanks is going to portray a corrupt sheriff with not-so-kind intentions.
Nobody 2 is gearing up to be filmed under the skilled direction of Timo Tjahjanto, who’s filling in for Ilya Naishuller from the first film. Fans of the original film will be thrilled to know that Bob Odenkirk is returning to the fray, reprising his role as Hutch Mansell. Remember Hutch, the guy who was a family man on the outside but a lethal government assassin on the inside? Yup, that’s him!
The lovely Connie Nielsen is also coming back as Becca, Hutch’s wife. And who can forget the ever-charismatic Christopher Lloyd? Lloyd reprises his role as Hutch’s dad, who happens to be a retired FBI agent. One of last month’s dramatic announcements mentioned that legendary actress Sharon Stone will be the main villain in this exciting sequel.
Let’s talk more about Colin Hanks! According to sources close to The Hollywood Reporter (THR), Hanks’ corrupt sheriff character won’t play nice. This is a thrilling piece of news, and we can’t wait to see how he rocks this role.
The first Nobody film was dropped in 2021. It introduces audiences to Odenkirk’s character, Hutch, as a harmless family man who succumbs to his fears during a home invasion. The incident re-ignites Hutch’s dormant lethal skills, leading to a revenge mission. Surprisingly, the mission backfires, landing his family in immense danger. Even after suffering a real-life heart attack during Better Call Saul‘s shooting, Odenkirk expressed his eagerness to return for the sequel. In his words, “Let’s make Nobody 2, and I’m going to kick more ass than I ever have.”
Universally acclaimed, Nobody has been appreciated for its commercial success as an action movie. Chris Bumbray, one of the many admirers of the film, remarked it as “the best commercial action movie we’ve seen in a long while.” Praising Odenkirk’s performance, he added, “Odenkirk really goes to town in this one. His lethal skills rack up a body count that probably doubles that of all three Taken movies combined. But it’s not just mindless action. Odenkirk makes you feel for the character and his family. He has a believable relationship with his on-screen wife, played by the wonderful Connie Nielsen.”
Thus, Nobody 2, with testaments from fans and critics alike, looks promising. Expectations are running high for this movie that promises thrilling sequences and an engaging storyline. With the addition of Colin Hanks and an already impressive cast, the excitement around this sequel continues to soar. Stay tuned for more updates on Nobody 2!
