One of the best parts of the 2020 Chris Hemsworth action movie Extraction was its lengthy “one-shot” scene, and from the sound of it, the sequel will up the ante even further.
Writer Joe Russo told Collider that they filmed a 14-minute continuous take for the sequel. For comparison, the one-shot sequence in the original Extraction was about 12 minutes. While the final version might be shorter than 14 minutes after editing, fans can rest assured that the sequel includes the same type of lengthy one-shot, and that’s exciting to think about. Russo didn’t share any specifics on the “oner,” as it’s called, but teased that it “may” feature a helicopter.
The 12-minute one-shot from Extraction featured director Sam Hargrave strapping himself to the front of a car–putting his life on the line in the process–to film the very memorable scene.
