Quick summary
- Chris Hemsworth confirmed on Instagram in late October that filming on Extraction 3 has wrapped, according to ScreenRant.
- The Netflix thriller was shot in Thailand and went into production in July, so principal photography took about three months.
- Netflix has not announced a release date, which means the film cannot arrive before 2027.
- Separately, Robb Report says an Archie Rose gin made with honey from Hemsworth’s bees is on sale in Australia only for now.
Chris Hemsworth has finished shooting Extraction 3, the third film in Netflix’s action franchise. According to ScreenRant, the Australian actor announced the wrap on his Instagram account in late October and celebrated his time shooting in Thailand. In a separate piece of news this week, Robb Report reported that the distillery he works with has released a gin built around his own honey. Here is where both stories stand.
Extraction 3 finishes filming in Thailand
ScreenRant reports that the R-rated thriller went into production in July, so the shoot lasted roughly three months. Hemsworth is due to return as Tyler Rake. Netflix has not given a release date.
That silence matters because of the gap between films. Extraction 2 arrived in 2023, and ScreenRant notes that the first two films were released three years apart. Since Extraction 3 will not appear in 2026, the earliest possible window is 2027, which would make a wait of four years. It is a long pause, and the wrap is the first firm sign of progress after months with few updates.
A franchise that Netflix has already proved
The numbers explain why the studio is patient. ScreenRant says the original Extraction drew 135.7 million views in its first 91 days on Netflix, while Extraction 2 collected 134.9 million in the same period. Both films sat in Netflix’s all-time top ten films when the sequel launched in 2023, according to the same report.
The sequel also earned praise for one stunt in particular: a 21-minute prison sequence filmed as a single continuous take. That scene set a high bar for whatever the third film attempts.
More than one film
Extraction is turning into a wider universe. ScreenRant lists a South Korean spin-off called Tygo, starring Don Lee of Marvel’s Eternals), Lisa from The White Lotus and Lee Jin-wook of Squid Game, which finished filming earlier this year. A television series, Mercenary: An Extraction Series, is led by Omar Sy with Natalie Dormer and Boyd Holbrook.
Hemsworth’s year has been busy elsewhere. ScreenRant says his crime thriller Crime 101, made with Mark Ruffalo, became a streaming hit on Prime Video this year. He is also due back as Thor in Avengers: Doomsday in December. ScreenRant argues that a release placed between that film and Avengers: Secret Wars would let Netflix ride his profile. That is the outlet’s view, not an announced plan.

The honey gin from Archie Rose
Away from film, Robb Report covered a new release from Archie Rose Distilling Co., which Will Edwards founded in 2014 and which makes whisky and gin from local ingredients. The Byron Bay Macadamia Honey Gin is the latest in a series that highlights botanicals grown with different farmers. For this release, Hemsworth’s bees supplied honey, one of the lead botanicals, alongside macadamia honey from an orchard pollinated by bees.
Robb Report lists the other botanicals as Valencia orange, yuzu, juniper, orris root, coriander and chamomile. The distillery’s tasting notes describe honeyed sweetness, pine, citrus and floral rose. The writer did not taste the gin, so those notes are the producer’s description, not a review.
Availability is limited. The gin is sold only in Australia for now, and Robb Report says it has asked the distillery whether that will change. The two Archie Rose whiskies already in the US are the Single Malt Australian Whisky at a suggested US$60 and the Straight Rye Malt Whisky at US$50.

What happens next
Netflix still has to announce when Extraction 3 will stream, and post-production will take months. Fans can follow everything we publish on Chris Hemsworth, and our Movies section tracks the other releases around him. On the gin, the next question is whether Archie Rose brings it to the United States.
