Chris Hemsworth has signalled that the cameras are close to done on Extraction 3. In a social media post on 28 October 2026, the Australian actor said he was finishing up in Thailand after several demanding weeks on the sequel, and shared pictures from the weekends he spent exploring the country.
What Hemsworth actually said
According to Khaosod English, the actor described the stretch as “crazy few weeks” of filming. Hungama Express quotes the full caption: “Finishing up my time in Thailand. Crazy few weeks of filming Extraction 3 but managed to fill the weekends with some fun non work adventures too!”
The outlets differ on where he posted. Hungama Express and Khaosod English refer to Instagram, while AOL, republishing a report from Mandatory, says X. Hemsworth is active on both, so the photos may have appeared on each. His accounts are on Instagram and on X.
The images show a mix of sightseeing and downtime. AOL says they include Thai landmarks and time with his children, and credits photographer Evan Paterakis. Hungama Express describes the carousel as a family getaway built around work.
Where Extraction 3 stands
AOL reports that Thailand was the last shooting location. It says principal photography began in July 2026 across Sydney, Wollongong and several European locations, with the shoot expected to wrap around early October. Those production details come from a single outlet, so treat the timeline as indicative rather than official.
Sam Hargrave is back in the director’s chair. The screenplay is credited to Joe Russo and David Weil, and AOL says the film draws on the graphic novel Ciudad. Fraser Taggart is the cinematographer.
Hemsworth returns as Tyler Rake, the former Australian special forces operator turned mercenary. Golshifteh Farahani and Idris Elba reprise their roles, according to both AOL and Hungama Express. AOL adds that Don Lee, Joe Taslim, Chi Lewis-Parry, Siena Agudong and Pierce Brosnan join the cast, with Brosnan’s addition announced in August 2026 and drawing significant attention.
A franchise that keeps growing
The first film arrived in 2020 and a second followed in 2023. Hungama Express notes that the new instalment is now officially in development, three years after the last one. AOL says Russo first confirmed a sequel in April 2024, when Hemsworth said the writing was going smoothly and that he wanted a story that justified following up the first two films.
AOL calls the series one of Netflix’s most successful action properties. Hemsworth produces alongside the Russo brothers through their AGBO banner, with Wild State and T.G.I.M. Films also listed as production companies.
His next big screen appearance comes first
Extraction fans will not be the first to see him back on screen. Hungama Express reports that the 43-year-old is due to return as Thor in Avengers: Doomsday, where he faces Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. That film is set for a global release on 18 December, which puts the Marvel blockbuster well ahead of any Extraction 3 premiere.
What happens next
With the Thailand shoot done, the film moves into post-production. AOL suggests a mid-2027 release window is possible, but neither Netflix nor the filmmakers have confirmed a date in anything we could read. Expect a first look or teaser closer to launch, and watch Hemsworth’s own accounts for more behind-the-scenes posts in the meantime.
