Prepare to be dazzled by the action prowess of Sharon Stone, the iconic actress, philanthropist, and fashion maven. She has gracefully joined the ranks of Bob Odenkirk in the highly anticipated sequel to the 2021 smash hit, Nobody 2, produced by Universal Pictures and 87North. Odenkirk reprises his role as the unsuspecting family man hiding a secret identity as a former government assassin. While the intricate plot remains a mystery, one thing is certain: Stone will embody the film's sinister antagonist with a magnetic malice.
Indonesian auteur Timo Tjahjanto, renowned for his spine-chilling horror and pulse-pounding action films like May the Devil Take You and segments of the V/H/S franchise, will helm this thrilling adventure. The screenplay is a collaborative effort by Derek Kolstad, Aaron Rabin, Odenkirk, and Umair Aleem, ensuring a riveting narrative.
The original film's stellar producing team is back, with Odenkirk joined by Kelly McCormick and David Leitch of 87North, Universal's dynamic duo. Marc Provissiero of Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment and Braden Aftergood of Eighty Two Films also lend their expertise to the project.
Universal Pictures has locked in a theatrical release date for Nobody 2 on August 15, 2025. The predecessor, crafted on a budget of $16 million, defied pandemic odds and raked in over $57.5 million worldwide, earning rave reviews from critics. The Hollywood Reporter lauded it as "a wish-fulfillment romp, just as ludicrous as any of them but more fun than most."
Stone, renowned for her boundary-pushing performance in the erotic thriller Basic Instinct and her Oscar-nominated turn opposite Robert de Niro and Joe Pesci in Casino, has recently focused her talents on television, appearing in Ryan Murphy's Ratched on Netflix and Paolo Sorentino's The New Pope on HBO. Her humanitarian efforts have garnered her numerous accolades, including a United Nations Global Citizen Award, Nobel Peace Summit Award, Harvard Humanitarian Award, Human Rights Campaign Humanitarian Award, and Einstein Spirit of Achievement Award. She also received a lifetime achievement award from the Taormina Film Festival.
Recently featured on the cover of The Hollywood Reporter, Stone candidly shared insights into her decades-long commitment to philanthropy and the fascinating twists and turns of her illustrious Hollywood career. She is represented by Independent Artist Group, who signed her less than two months ago, and Brecheen Feldman. Universal's executive vice president of production development, Jay Polidoro, and director of development, Tony Ducret, are overseeing this highly anticipated project on behalf of the studio.
