Nobody was the sleeper hit of 2021, and now Nobody 2 promises to continue the trend with Bob Odenkirk returning as an unlikely action hero.
Since audiences loved Nobody, many are now anxiously awaiting the announcement of Nobody 2. In Nobody, Hutch Mansell (Bob Odenkirk) lives a mundane life and fails to take action when two criminals rob his home. He eventually tracks down the thugs and comes face to face with their boss, Yulian Kuznetsov (Aleksei Serebryakov). Written by John Wick creator Derek Kolstad and directed by Ilya Naishuller, Nobody features extraordinary fight sequences and moves along quickly at only 92 minutes in length.
The action movie was a hit upon release, pleasing both critics and general audiences alike. Nobody has a cast of talented actors who help make the action movie fun, thrilling, and engaging. Naishuller’s 2021 film proves that Odenkirk is perfectly capable of headlining an action franchise, one that could potentially crossover with the John Wick film series. Here’s what to expect for Nobody 2.

Connie Nielsen Teases Nobody 2
Long stuck in development, the highly-anticipated sequel got its first dose of good news in a long while when original star Connie Nelson teased details about Nobody 2. Nielsen appeared in the first film as Hutch’s wife, Becca, and her updates suggest she will be returning once again. “I’m a family person and I love depicting the tensions inside of a family” Nielsen explained, “This is a great family. It’s a great story that I look forward to returning to“.
While few details have been disclosed, Nielsen’s comments suggest that Nobody 2 will put a greater emphasis on the family dynamic after the first film’s explosive reveals. Hutch’s family can never really go back to normal after learning of his past, and that could add some much-needed intrigue to the sequel’s plot.
