Nobody 2: Release Date, Cast, And Other Things We Know

Nobody 2 is officially happening and it’s coming out as part of the 2025 movie release schedule. And yes, I am so excited.

While plenty know Bob Odenkirk from the hit AMC series Breaking Bad and its prequel, Better Call Saul, the actor has done plenty in the world of film.

I never saw him as an action star until I saw Nobody, a film that was released in 2021 and followed a seemingly average man who had to return to his past life full of danger when his house is robbed and he becomes the target of a drug lord – and it was the epitome of badass. Now, Nobody 2 is officially coming out, and this is what we know so far.

What Is The Nobody 2 Release Date?

Nobody 2 is slated for release on August 15, 2025. The first Nobody film came out during a time when movies weren’t as big in theaters (obviously because of Covid), but now, there’s a chance it could become a blockbuster. So far, Nobody 2 is the only film set to release on that day, while the long-awaited Freakier Friday will release a week earlier, but isn’t even in the same genre. This could be the perfect time for Nobody 2 to strike.

The Nobody 2 Cast

When it comes to Nobody 2 there are a few names that we know for sure will return, and a few new faces as well. Let’s get into it.

Bob Odenkirk As Hutch Mansell

Deadline reported that Bob Odenkirk is returning to star in Nobody 2.

Obviously, it wouldn’t really be Nobody if the star himself, Bob Odenkirk, didn’t return to the leading role. And, especially since the film sort of ended on a cliffhanger, it would only make sense for him and his family to come back.

While many probably know Odenkirk from Better Call Saul, the finale of Better Call Saul aired in 2022, and the Breaking Bad universe has seemingly come to an end for now. Odenkirk has appeared in other projects such as The Bear, Lucky Hank and more, but it’ll be exciting to see him return to this.

New Cast Members

Various new cast members have been confirmed for Nobody 2, from news outlets Deadline and The Hollywood Reporter. These include:

• Colin Hanks
• Sharon Stone
• John Ortiz
• McKenna Grace

Character descriptions at this time are unconfirmed, but one can only wonder who they will play as most of these are major stars who have appeared in various franchises like Star Trek, the Jumanji movies and more.

Cast Members That Could Return

There are a few names that we know are confirmed to return for Nobody 2 thanks to various reports from THR and X. These include:

• Connie Nielsen as Becca (Hutch’s wife)
• RZA as Harry Mansell
• Christopher Lloyd as David Mansell

Additionally, there are a few cast members from the first movie who could return, but haven’t been confirmed yet:

• Michael Ironside as Eddie Williams
• Colin Salmon as The Barber
• Billy MacLellan as Charlie Williams
• Gage Munroe as Blake Mansell
• Paisley Cadorath as Abby Mansell

Personally, I’m excited just looking at this cast and the possibility of who might return. The Nobody 2 ending left plenty up for interpretation, so I wonder where they are going to take this franchise – and how these new characters are going to interact with Hutch.

What Nobody 2 Is About

While plot details have remained pretty much under wraps, we do have some kind of an idea thanks to an interview that Connie Nielsen did with Screen Rant in January 2024, where she said that the sequel will hint at the “tensions” that have grown in the family since the first film:

We did get a little more information from director Timo Tjahjanto in November 2024 thanks to an interview that he did with Empire, and it lines up pretty consistently with what Nielson described about the film – that Nobody 2 will mainly be about how the family adapts to Hutch returning to the dark world of crime:

This, again, brings me back to those characters. Obviously Hutch’s family will play an important role in this (even if the kids aren’t confirmed just yet but I’m sure once we get a trailer we’ll see). But who are these new players going to be? How is Sharon Stone’s character going to influence Hutch? Will Rebecca get in on the action now too? The questions are endless.

Timo Tjahjanto Directed

Timo Tjahjanto directed Nobody 2. The first film was directed by Ilya Naishuller, but it seems Tjahjanto will be taking over responsibilities for the sequel.

The director has worked on various movies such as The Night Comes For Us, The ABCs of Death, The Big 4 and more. However, he has also produced and directed many Indonesian films across the sea. When he was asked in an interview with THR about what aspect of Indonesian action movies he wants to bring to Nobody 2, the director simply says, “I hope it’s the brutality.”

I mean, ya’ll – the first Nobody film wasn’t a walk in the park. It was bloody as all hell. But now Tjahjanto is going to bring more brutality? I’m so here for this.

Filming Has Wrapped

The last thing we know is that filming for the movie has actually already wrapped. Thanks to an Instagram post from Tjahjanto, we know that Nobody 2 officially wrapped production at the end of September 2024:

Since Nobody 2 does have a set release date, it makes sense that production would be wrapped. So that means we should all keep an eye out for a trailer very soon.
