Red Notice 2 has been in development for a few years, and while not much has been confirmed, rumors about it have been circulating since the first movie’s release. The action comedy Red Notice, which stars Ryan Reynolds, Gal Gadot, and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, is one of the most watched films to ever arrive on Netflix. The movie centers on John Hartley (Johnson), an FBI agent who has to work with renowned art thief Nolan Booth (Reynolds) to prevent Sarah Black (Gadot), an even more daring thief, from stealing three rare bejeweled eggs.

The film premiered on Netflix on November 5, 2021, and was received poorly, with a 37% on Rotten Tomatoes, but the film was watched, in total, for over 453.9 million hours. It’s a classic Hollywood blockbuster for the streaming era, with mega-stars, a massive budget of $200 million, and some clever stunts and twists to keep the audience engaged. Gadot, Reynolds, and Johnson are no strangers to blockbuster franchises, so a follow-up to Red Notice was planned even before the movie was released. Since 2021, nothing more has been confirmed, but a lot has been said about Red Notice 2.
