The 2020 hit was based on the graphic novel Ciudad by Ande Parks, Joe Russo, Anthony Russo, Fernando León González, and Eric Skillman.

While the movie is said to pick up things from the last events of the previous movie, some flashbacks from Rake’s past can still be expected. The two and a half minutes trailer that was releases earlier this year opens with a fight scene involving Tyler Rake on a train. The preview then cuts to a montage giving us more of an idea of the film's plot, as well as a fight scene in a penthouse where Rake uses a treadmill to kill somebody. Also, considering the interest in Gaspar’s character, the new story might have something to do with time Rake and Gaspar spent together as teammates. Perhaps an old enemy coming back to haunt Rake in the present? It's been done a thousand times already, but there's still some potential.
Keeping everything in mind, the movie is definately expected to do wonders once again. The sequel definately have a lot of expectations from the viewers. It will be intersesting to see if the makers can once again keep up with the expectations of the viewers. Even if it's half as entertaining as the first movie, the new one might just climb right up to the top of Netflix's rankings.
