Extraction 3 Streaming Release Date Rumors: When It Could Drop, Cast News, and Big Updates
Extraction 3 is barreling toward its streaming debut, as Netflix’s Tyler Rake saga—born from the graphic novel Ciudad and steered by director Sam Hargrave—lines up its next high-stakes mission; release window and key updates ahead.
Netflix is not done throwing Chris Hemsworth off buildings. Extraction 3 is happening, and if you are wondering when it might land in your queue, here is where things look to be headed right now.
Release window (deep breath)
Based on how Netflix spaced out the first two films, the current estimate for Extraction 3 is around 2027 or later. The first movie dropped in 2020, the sequel followed in 2023, and the third one is now in production. That timeline math puts us a few years out again. Not thrilling, but it tracks.
What Hemsworth is saying
On August 5, 2025, The Hollywood Reporter ran a chat with Hemsworth that made it clear the team is still shaping what this movie is:
"[Tyler Rake is] getting restless. We, the creative team, are putting together some different ideas and creative ventures of where we could take the whole place and the [third] film.
But the intention is to certainly make another one. I don't know exactly when, but yeah, it'll be coming."
Translation: they are actively breaking the story, but do not circle a date yet.

Inside baseball
That THR quote basically screams: they are experimenting. It is not just a paint-by-numbers sequel; they are figuring out where to take Tyler and the franchise next. That explains the long runway and why the '2027 or later' estimate feels realistic.
