Triple Frontier 2 gets an update from one of its main stars. Released on Netflix in 2019, Triple Frontier is an action film surrounding a group of friends who work together to take down the leader of a South American drug cartel using their skills as former special forces operatives. The movie features a star-studded main cast of Ben Affleck, Oscar Isaac, Charlie Hunnam, Garrett Hedlund, and Pedro Pascal.
In an interview with The Mary Sue, Hunnam opens up about the prospects of Triple Frontier 2. Hunnam said that there was “nothing guaranteed” but teased a “potential sequel.” Check out the quote from Hunnam below:
“[It is in its] absolute infancy. Nothing guaranteed, but I just set up recently as the main producer on a potential sequel to Triple Frontier at Netflix.”
How Likely Is A Triple Frontier Sequel?
Though Triple Frontier was mainly a Netflix film, the action movie did receive a limited release in March 2019. The Triple Frontier release was less economically fruitful than Netflix had hoped, especially after the studio spent a whopping $115 million in order to make it. Nonetheless, Triple Frontier scored a 70% on Rotten Tomatoes among critics, which put it at sufficiently positive reviews.
Though the theatrical failure might put a dour note on a potential Triple Frontier 2, the first film has recently found success, which may bode well for a follow-up. Triple Frontier made the Netflix Global Top 10 for the week of November 20 through November 26, garnering 3.6 million views during that week. This streaming renaissance casts a hopeful light on the potential for a sequel, as it suggests that audiences would still have interest in following the characters on a new adventure.
The 25 Most-Watched Netflix Movies Of All Time
Between action-packed adventures, dramas, and comedies — all of which star A-list actors —, here are Netflix's most-watched movies of all time.Triple Frontier’s cast provides both a draw and a potential challenge to a sequel. Since being featured on The Mandalorian and The Last of Us, Pascal has become a much more prominent actor since starring in the original, making him a much bigger draw for a potential Triple Frontier 2. At the same time, his schedule with these shows and increasing popularity may make it hard for Netflix to secure him for a second film. So, while Hunnam’s quote is a good sign that Triple Frontier 2 could be on the horizon, the film is still quite far from certain.
