Nobody 2 release date: When will it be released?
There is no official release date confirmed yet for Nobody 2 – however, it’s likely we’ll see it in cinemas in early 2024, three years after the first movie.
Speaking to Collider, producer Kelly McCormick revealed plans for Nobody 2 to enter production in 2023. “We hope to make it next year, so fingers crossed,” she said.
“So our theory is you don’t need to make a good sequel just to make a sequel. We need to make a great sequel. And so it’s about making sure that we get it right. And if we do, I think there’s a lot of hope that we can go next year.”
According to David Leitch, the movie is in the early stages of development, with Nobody 2 still going through the scriptwriting process.
Leitch revealed to Collider that he “had a blast, the actors had a blast, the studio loved the results, and it’s happening.”
“I think all of us want to go back and play in that universe, and we want to see Bob bring that character to life again,” Leitch added.
Leitch also told The Hollywood Reporter: “I think that movie is going to happen. The will is there from Bob, the studio, the producers, Derek Kolstad and ourselves. So we’re in development on it, like hard-core development on it, and I would place your bet on it.”
Nobody 2 cast: Who will be in it?
Casting details for Nobody 2 have yet to be finalized, though it is expected that Better Call Saul’s Bob Odenkirk will return to reprise his role as Hutch Mansell. It is possible that Christopher Lloyd and RZA will also come back for Nobody 2, playing Hutch’s father and brother, David and Harry Mansell.
With the Russian Mob likely hot on Hutch’s trail following the bloody conclusion of the 2021 sleeper hit, we’re sure to see someone fill the villain spot left behind by Aleksei Serebryakov.

Nobody 2 trailer: Is there a trailer, and where can I watch it?
At the time of writing there are no trailers for Nobody 2, but be sure to check back in with us as new developments occur within the production.
Nobody 2 plot: What will it be about?
As Nobody 2 begins to pick up the pace behind the scenes, we’re still awaiting official plot details. However, before David Leitch confirmed Nobody 2 was going ahead, Bob Odenkirk revealed to Empire in February that a story had already taken shape.
Odenkirk explained that “Universal has been very upbeat and welcoming. Derek [Kolstad] and I have talked story. It’s not a sure thing yet, but we’re working on it. I think the signs point to yes.”
John Wick fans will recognize the name Derek Kolstad, as the screenwriter wrote the first three chapters of the Keanu Reeves-led franchise.
Will Nobody 2 crossover with John Wick?
Both Nobody and the John Wick franchise are produced by David Leitch, utilizing his expert stunt team, 87/Eleven. The similarities between the two franchises are noticeable, as Hutch and Wick operate in shady worlds of assassination fuelled by mysterious currency, ethics and leadership.
Though Hutch’s world is a tad more grounded than the gloriously chaotic heights of Wick, it hasn’t stopped the filmmakers and fans pondering whether a crossover could happen.
Nobody director Ilya Naishuller told IndieWire in March 2021: “I love when the people ask, ‘Is it the same universe?”
“I’m like, ‘Alright, I can’t say anything. But what you could do is look at which studio made which movie and then think about the reality of doing a crossover,” continued Naishuller.
The director added that “everything’s possible. Stranger things have definitely happened.”
