Chris Hemsworth stars as mercenary anti-hero Tyler Rake in Netflix‘s new heart-stopping blockbuster Extraction.
And the Australian actor has been inked up for the action-packed role, with fake tattoos painted on his famous bulging biceps.
In the film, Chris’ character Tyler is an Australian ex-soldier-for-hire who is solicited on the black market to extract a kidnapped drug lord’s son in Bangladesh.
The thriller’s trailer depicts Tyler as a broken man with a death wish, jumping hazardously to the bottom of a murky river, which is later revealed to be due to losing his own son years ago.
As the edge of your seat teaser progresses, Tyler and the kidnapped boy cling to each other as they fight to escape the deadly world of weapon dealings and drug trafficking.
When the job goes south and the city goes into lockdown, Tyler must decide whether to abandon the boy in order to save himself.
‘That kid is a walking corpse. There’s no way to protect him. The best thing you could do for that kid would be put a bullet in his brain,’ an informant tells Tyler in the trailer, played by Stranger Things star, David Harbour.
More than just the average action flick, Extraction appears to delve deeper into the main character’s psyche as he decides whether he is worth redemption.
‘Are you always this brave?’ The wounded and bloody kidnapped boy asks in the trailer, to which Chris replies: ‘I’m not brave.’
‘You rescue people,’ the boy points out.
‘Sometimes, I do other things,’ Chris’ says through a voiceover, as the trailer shows his character blowing up a helicopter, before he ominously looks up with a look of hate in his eyes.
The action-packed film is produced by the Avengers Infinity War and End Game directors the Russo Brothers.
