Production is starting on the sequel to the 2021 action film “Nobody”, which will see Bob Odenkirk reprise his role as Hutch Mansell. Director Timo Tjahjanto, known for the Indonesian thriller “The Night Comes for Us”, has shared the first behind-the-scenes photos from the set on social media.
The original “Nobody” told the story of Hutch Mansell, a seemingly ordinary suburban dad. But when two thieves broke into his home, Hutch’s dormant combat skills were unleashed as he went after the criminals. It was revealed that Hutch actually had a violent past that was full of mysteries. The movie was a critical and box office hit, making over $57 million worldwide against a $16 million budget.
