Ma Dong-seok’s agency, Big Punch Entertainment, announced on the 18th, “Following his lead role in ‘TYGO,’ a spin-off film based on the ‘Extraction’ universe, Ma Dong-seok is set to appear in ‘Extraction 3,’ continuing his global action career.”
On the 17th (local time), Netflix revealed the main cast of “Extraction 3” and announced that filming has officially begun. Joining Ma Dong-seok are new cast members Pierce Brosnan, Joe Taslim, Chi Lewis-Parry, and Sienna Agudong. Chris Hemsworth, Idris Elba, and Golshifteh Farahani will also appear in the film. “Extraction 3” is directed by Sam Hargrave, who helmed the previous film, with David Weil of “Citadel” serving as screenwriter.
“Extraction 3” follows Chris Hemsworth, who reprises his role as Tyler Lake, as he embarks on a new mission. However, the specific plot and the roles of the new cast members have not yet been determined. “Extraction 3” is reportedly set to film on location for several months, promising action on an even larger scale.
Previously, Ma Dong-seok starred as Taigo, a mercenary and war orphan, in the Netflix film “Taigo.” “Taigo” tells the story of Taigo embarking on a life-or-death mission to rescue Lia—whom he treats like family—after she is kidnapped by a criminal organization while he is on a critical mission. Lee Jin-wook and BLACKPINK’s Lisa also appear in the film, which is currently preparing for its Netflix release.
Ma Dong-seok connected with viewers through the tvN variety show ‘I Am a Boxer,’ which wrapped up last January. He also showcased spectacular action in the Netflix film ‘Taigo.’
Ma Dong-seok is currently in the midst of filming the movie “The Roundup 5.” “The Roundup 5” began production on May 24, and Ma Dong-seok returns as Ma Seok-do, a “monster detective” who has been promoted to team leader of the Metropolitan Investigation Unit. Ma Seok-do is set to launch a new crime-busting operation against Lee Kang-tae, the worst criminal, played by Kim Jae-young.
