Chris Hemsworth’s Extraction 3 Officially in the Works — Delay Reasons, Story Details & More
Chris Hemsworth's Extraction 3 is back, Find out about filming status, the reason for delay, the confirmed cast and what the sequel has in store for your fans.
Director Sam Hargrave has revealed details about Chris Hemsworth’s Extraction 3 and it seems like the fans will have to wait a little longer. At the Apple TV+ premiere of his series “The Last Frontier,” Hargrave mentioned in passing that production is slated to begin in 2026. “We roll cameras in 2026, we’ll see how it goes,” which sounds like there’s still some leeway in the date. The most big issue of the delay and Hargrave let his fans wait for the next part of Extraction due to Chris Hemsworth’s busy schedule, especially with his Marvel Avengers films.
Reasons for the Delay of Extraction 3
Production hold-up is due to several disagreements. Chris Hemsworth stressed the need to make the story-to-script right, telling Collider, “We just wanna make sure that we’ve got it right, that we’ve got a script that’s good enough to go follow the last two, because I am really proud of what we’ve done previously”.
The creative team is now concentrated on the development of the script and the story. As Joe Russo explained, “We’re in the process of writing that story right now. Hard at work”. In addition to this, managing Hemsworth’s busy agenda, including his Marvel obligations, also extended the timeline.
What the Previous Movies Have Given Us
The Extraction franchise has become the best action thriller series on Netflix. The original 2020 film was watched by more than 99 million households in its first month, shattering Netflix records and becoming the platform’s most-viewed original film at the time.
Extraction 2, was released in June 2023, continuing the success with more than 85 million views within its first ten days. The franchise broke the record by being the first movie series to hold Netflix’s no.1 and no.2 spots for two straight weeks.
The films follow Tyler Rake (Chris Hemsworth), a black ops mercenary with a troubled past. Extraction had him rescuing the kidnapped son of an Indian crime lord in Bangladesh. Extraction 2 featured a risky prison extraction in Georgia, where Rake saved his ex-wife’s sister and her children from her violent gangster husband.
Extraction 3 is due to start immediately after the end of the second film, opening up with the cliffhanger ending. Tyler and Nik were released after a harrowing mission in Georgia when Idris Elba’s mysterious character, Alcott, intervened. But there’s a catch: he’s got a new job for them, as Digital Spy stated, from his shadowy and apparently ultra-hard boss.
Joe Russo has teased not only Idris Elba’s role will be a big one this time around, but the actor is going to have some interesting dynamics with Chris Hemsworth’s character. If you liked the chemistry this duo in Extraction 2, rest assured this sequel will serve more of that cocktail. Plus: Alcott’s employer, who is called a “gnarly motherfucker.” Sounds like there’s a lot of action and mystery right up my alley!

Director’s Theme for the Movie
Director Sam Hargrave and writer Joe Russo have now revealed some exciting new information regarding Extraction 3, teasing that the story is going to explore more of Tyler Rake’s emotional state. Russo said Tyler’s character is interesting because he’s emotionally wounded, and his relationship with violence is motivated by self-loathing and guilt.
It sounds like there’s a lot of play in his backstory that can be told. Hargrave calls the series “a redemption story through sacrifice,” with Tyler seeking meaning through these high-stakes assignments. Fans will also be able to enjoy the series’ signature intense action sequences, all while getting an ever closer look at what makes Tyler tick. Looks like this next installment will bring a nice balance of heart-stopping thrills and tear-jerking moments.
Conclusion
Extraction 3 is going to be even more action-packed thrills with Tyler Rake back in the forefront ready to adapt to new challenges. Filming in 2026 with a story that promises an exciting continuation … but now, there’s a neat twist. Idris Elba joins the cast in a secret role tied to an influential employer, adding even more layers (and lore) to the franchised mythology. Viewers can expect explosive action, heartbreaking drama, and a new layer of mystery as the show takes us to new corners of its world. Looks like a lot more to look forward to here!

The nerves, the devastation, and the magnetic chemistry of Maxton Hall, The World Between Us is officially back to steal your heart all over again. With three episodes now out, the highly anticipated Episode 4, “Secrets,” is scheduled to release on 14 November, 2025, on Prime Video.
Adapted from Mona Kasten’s “Save Me” trilogy, German hit drama continues to follow Ruby Bell, a determined scholarship student at the prestigious Maxton Hall and James Beaufort, the affluent heir burdened by his family’s demands. Their lives conflict in all manner of ways. Yet fate and unforeseen perils keep bringing them together.
Prime Video will be releasing Episode 4 this Friday. It is following the show’s pattern on a weekly basis. New episodes are released every Friday until November 28. That’s the end of Season 2. The first three episodes are available to stream already worldwide, so if you’re not up to date yet, now’s the time.
What Happened So Far
Season 2 began with an emotional reset. Following the events of season one, Ruby is starting over working toward an Oxford dream, grappling with new academic challenges, and trying to offer up a little personal growth. James, by contrast, is at last dealing with his demons.
His therapy sessions have stripped away the guilt and grief caused by his family’s tragedy.
Meanwhile, Lydia’s surprise pregnancy has added a whole new dimension to the drama and Ophelia’s secret link to the Beauforts is emerging. Ember, Ruby’s sister, seems to be getting more focus. This could mean her storyline may get bigger this season.
What to Expect in Episode 4
Episode 4, appropriately named “Secrets,” is set to evoke some feelings and maybe even fan the flames of a once-again rumored romance. After their emotional exchanges in Episode 3, Ruby and James could be beginning to really move forward again. However, that’s far easier said than done in Maxton Hall, we know.
The next episode will also investigate further into Cordelia Beaufort’s will, a storyline that is expected to reveal some secrets pertaining to the Beaufort family wealth. Fans should brace for more Lydia/Professor Sutton drama, since the pregnant woman can’t decide whether or tell her pregnancy.

Another open question is the simmering animosity between Alistair and Kesh that has been bubbling since Season 1. Fans have been dying for closure on their arc and episode 4 just might give us some answers as to where their friendship or perhaps something more is headed.
If Season 1 was about discovery and heartbreak, Season 2 is about vindication. The writing is quicker, the emotions stronger and the chemistry between Harriet Herbig-Matten (Ruby) and Damian Hardung (James) is still electric. Directors Martin Schreier and Tarek Roehlinger add a cinematic flair to the narrative, infusing the lavish with the heartfelt.
And the new season delves into even bigger issues ambition, privilege and emotional restoration all set against the drama-ridden halls of Maxton Hall’s upper echelons.”
Conclusion
Maxton Hall continues to demonstrate that teen drama can be both genuinely moving and intelligent. Featuring a blend of romance, tension, and moral ambiguity, it’s no wonder this series has turned out to be one of Prime Video’s top European originals.
The fourth episode is shaping up to be a turning point, one with the potential to alter Ruby and James’s relationship forever. If love conquers guilt or secrets tear them apart, this is going to be a wild ride for the fans.
So, get the popcorn, sign into Prime Video, and prepare for another week at the scandalous Maxton Hall. Installment 4 releases 14 November 2025 and you won’t want to miss a second.
At FandomFans, we bring you the latest buzz from Hollywood’s creative underworld exploring how visionary directors, designers, and actors craft the worlds we love to escape into. Today, we dive deep into the drama and anticipation surrounding the next episode of Maxton Hall Season 2, keeping fans connected to every twist and turn.

Supergirl’s outfit has never been just an outfit. Costume has been a constant source of identity issues for the character. And still, a debate continues to revolve on social platforms. From Melissa Benoist’s sunny Arrowverse take on the character to Milly Alcock’s gritty DCU debut, Supergirl’s wardrobe has been telling stories long before she’s landed her first blow.
At the heart of the development of Supergirl’s look is not about fashion trends. It is what kind of hero the world needs her to be. And while Benoist’s suit was a symbol of unity and hope, Alcock’s costume is for survival, sorrow, and isolation. Those two creations embody very different approaches to storytelling.
The Arrowverse Supergirl: Dressing the Paragon of Hope
It seemed like there were dark leather suits and gritty realism everywhere when Supergirl premiered in 2015. Costume designer Colleen Atwood had to find a way to take Silver Age idealism and translate it into a contemporary, realistic look without making the character seem cold.
The solution was subtlety. Melissa Benoist’s costume was based more on texture than armor or detailing. The matte Euro-jersey material absorbed rather than reflected light, making the outfit appear soft, friendly and human. ThisSupergirl was supposed to be inspiring, not frightening. Strength was there, but never aggressive.

Arguably the most conscious decision was the omission of the notorious midriff costume that the character sported in the comics. The high neckline, long sleeves and thumb holes suggested function over fashion. Kara was portrayed as a hard-working, active hero — not a pinup. Even the thumb holes brought an “activewear” feel, making the suit more about function than fantasy.
The Skirt Debate
For the first four seasons, the red pleated skirt was a staple of Benoist’s Supergirl. In part, it paid tribute to the character’s comic legacy and suggested that femininity and strength could co-exist. She was able to save the city, but do so while being joyous and kind and emotionally open.
But the skirt was also contentious. Critics said that it infantilized the character, comparing it to a cheerleader uniform rather than armor for battle. Yet the show leaned into this tension. That skirt sent a message: Supergirl wasn’t required to ditch the traditionally feminine signifiers to be capable. Her sunny disposition wasn’t a vulnerability — it was her superpower.
Reality Steps In: The Pants Era
The biggest change was in , when the character started wearing full length pants instead of the skirt. Though it was presented as maturing character-development, the change was due more so to production needs. Shooting in Vancouver’s brutal weather, the original suit was an ordeal for Benoist.

The new suit highlighted unity and protection. The elongated blue body, attached boots, and solid gold belt gave the outfit a more armored, technological look. It was sensible, but it also watered down the immediately recognizable outline Supergirl has. It was practical—but it also diluted the instantly recognizable Supergirl silhouette.
Benoist’s Supergirl remained, above all else, an icon. Her costume was sleek, luminous and aspirational, customized to comfort both viewers and the world she saved.
The DCU Supergirl: Armor for a Broken Survivor
Milly Alcock’s Supergirl finds itself in a vastly different world. Kara is no longer defined by being integrated or hopeful under James Gunn’s DCU. She’s defined by loss.
Born amongst the remnants of Krypton and seeing all she loved perish, this Supergirl is not a light—she is a survivor. Her costume reflects that reality. Taking inspiration from Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, the costume dispenses with sleek minimalism and introduces layered textures, metallic weaves and visual weight. This is not clothing. It is armor.
The largest visual change is the House of El symbol. The Kingdom Come diagonal slash that has traditionally been a sign of disenchantment is now part of Alcock’s crest. The elimination of yellow is vital. Yellow is warmth, sunlight and positive feeling. It’s gone to indicate mourning. She bears the name of the family, but not its innocence.
The Return of the Skirt—Reclaimed
In a surprising about-face, the DCU reintroduces the skirt. But this is not the CW’s smiling cowlick of cheer. It’s heavier, more structured, and worn with thigh-high boots. The skirt on this occasion is cultural, not cute — a claim that femininity doesn’t need justification.

In contrast to the earlier debates, Alcock’s Supergirl is not depicted as trying to be “approachable” by putting on the skirt. She vents it because she doesn’t give a damn what people think about it. Her toughness is unquestionable.
Space Grunge and the Drifter Myth
Maybe the most revealing aspect of Alcock’s visual design is what she wears on top of the suit. The oversized trench, combat boots and sunglasses make her a cosmic drifter. This Supergirl hides herself from the world, cloaking trauma in layers.
The contrast is deliberate: under the tattered, dirty shell is the regalia of a bygone culture. It is visual storytelling at its most efficient.
Conclusion
The shift from Arrowverse to DCU is a game changer for the genre in and of itself. Supergirl isn’t just a beacon of hope anymore. She was evidence that hope could exist after ruin.
Melissa Benoist’s Arrowverse suit was a beacon of hope, warmth, and community, making Supergirl someone to look up to. Millie Alcock’s DCU design, however, is armor – forged through loss, survival, and emotional wounds. All of these identities give us a visual representation of Supergirl’s arc from a bright emblem of hope to a profoundly human survivor, reminding us that what a hero wears can tell the tale of who they are—and what they’ve been through.
