Nobody 2 Surpasses Shawshank Redemption Worldwide Box Office

Nobody 2, the sequel to the 2021 action-thriller Nobody starring Bob Odenkirk, has received positive critical and audience acclaim, scoring 78% and 89% respectively on Rotten Tomatoes. Released theatrically on August 15, 2025, the film follows Hutch Mansell and his family on a vacation that turns dangerous due to conflicts with corrupt local figures. With a production budget of $25 million, Nobody 2 has grossed around $30.3 million worldwide but still needs to earn more to break even and surpass the original film's lifetime earnings. The sequel delivers intensified action sequences and maintains strong momentum, though some reviews note it can feel predictable and less humorous than the first movie. The film is expected to become available for digital streaming and premium video on demand starting September 2, 2025, on platforms like Apple TV, Prime Video, and YouTube. Directed by Timo Tjahjanto and written by John Wick creator Derek Kolstad, Nobody 2 continues to carve its niche amid competition and could potentially outgross other 2025 releases.
