‘Old Guard 2’ Director Victoria Mahoney On Charlize Theron & Uma Thurman, Being #1, Sequels, ‘Star Wars’ & Miles Davis

  • The Old Guard 2 was released on Netflix on July 2, 2025, ending with almost the entire team captured and a cliffhanger involving a rescue mission.
  • The sequel arises from Greg Rucka’s 2017 graphic novel series, with production delayed by the pandemic and industry upheavals, and a third film remains unconfirmed.
  • Victoria Mahoney directed the film, working closely with fight choreographer Georgi Manchev and praised Charlize Theron’s 1,000 percent dedication to emotionally grounded action scenes.
  • Henry Golding noted the film’s narrative demanded a cut point, calling the jeopardy of losing the Old Guard a 'carrot to dangle,' while Marwan Kenzari expressed hope for a sequel soon.
  • The film’s success led it to hit #1 on Netflix in the U.S. within hours of release and suggested potential continuation if schedules and interest align.
