The past week or so saw fans hastily taking heed to a leaked European trailer for John Herzfeld’s Escape Plan: The Extractors. It was a fun few minutes but it was worth at least waiting for the official U.S. trailer to arrive, with an official date set for July 2 on Digital 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital.
Screen legend Sylvester Stallone kicks this explosive action tale into high gear. After security expert Ray Breslin (Stallone) is hired to rescue the kidnapped daughter of a Hong Kong tech mogul from a formidable Latvian prison, Breslin’s girlfriend (Jaime King) is also captured. Now he and his team, which includes Dave Bautista and Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, must pull off a deadly rescue mission to confront their sadistic foe and save the hostages before time runs out.
Five years in and a franchise that surprisingly carried over well for fans, Escape Plan: The Extractors looks like its going for a major closer on this particular franchise. It’s only fitting seeing as Rambo is on his way out since Rocky.
Stallone is joined by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson, Dave Bautista, Jamie King, Max Zhang and Devon Sawa.
