Blackpink's Lisa to Star in Netflix's "Extraction" Universe Thriller "Tygo"
Netflix has announced a new action-thriller film, "Tygo," set within the "Extraction" universe, starring Blackpink's Lisa. The film, a spin-off of the successful "Extraction" franchise, will also feature Korean actors Don Lee and Lee Jin-uk.
Lisa expressed her excitement about the project, stating that being in an action film has always been a dream. The film is directed by Lee Sang-yong and will follow the story of Tygo, a former child soldier, as he seeks revenge on the Korean underworld after a mission goes awry.
The "Extraction" franchise, based on the graphic novel "Ciudad" by Anthony and Joe Russo and Ande Parks, has proven popular with audiences. The first film in the series garnered 90 million household views in its first month. The producers are eager to explore the "Extraction" world through a South Korean lens, highlighting the dynamic choreography of Korean cinema.
"Tygo" will mark Lisa's second acting role, following her appearance in "The White Lotus" earlier this year. The film aims to bring a distinctly Korean identity to the global "Extraction" universe.
BNN's Perspective: The expansion of the "Extraction" universe with a Korean-focused film featuring a global star like Lisa is a smart move for Netflix. It leverages the popularity of the original franchise while tapping into the growing global interest in Korean entertainment. This project has the potential to be a major success.
