At the helm of this action-packed thriller is Indonesian filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto, renowned for his horror and action-packed works like 'May the Devil Take You' and segments of the 'V/H/S' franchise. Derek Kolstad, Aaron Rabin, Odenkirk, and Umair Aleem have crafted the screenplay, promising an edge-of-your-seat experience.

The original film's production team is back, with Odenkirk joined by Kelly McCormick and David Leitch, producers of the Universal-backed 87North. Marc Provissiero of Odenkirk Provissiero Entertainment and Braden Aftergood of Eighty Two Films also lend their producing talents.

Universal Pictures has locked in an August 15, 2025, theatrical release for 'Nobody 2,' ensuring moviegoers a thrilling summer blockbuster. The first film, made on a modest budget of $16 million, defied the pandemic odds, grossing over $57.5 million worldwide and earning critical praise. The Hollywood Reporter hailed it as "a wish-fulfillment romp that's as ludicrous as any of them but more fun than most."

Stone, a fashion icon and philanthropist, has graced our screens with her unforgettable performances, from her breakthrough in 'Basic Instinct' to her Oscar-nominated role in 'Casino.' More recently, she has made her mark in television, starring 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 the Einstein Spirit of Achievement Award. She was also recently honored with a lifetime achievement award from the Taormina Film Festival.

Represented by Independent Artist Group and Brecheen Feldman, Stone continues to shine in Hollywood and beyond, proving that her star power is as bright as ever. Universal's executive vice president of production development, Jay Polidoro, and director of development, Tony Ducret, oversee the project, ensuring that 'Nobody 2' will be a cinematic triumph.
