“Colombiana 2,” the highly anticipated sequel to the 2011 action thriller, is set for release in the summer of 2025. Directed by Olivier Megaton, the film stars Zoe Saldana, reprising her role as Cataleya Restrepo, alongside Jason Statham as Ethan Kane, a rogue MI6 agent. With a production budget of $120 million, the film invested heavily in elaborate action sequences, international locations, and high-quality visual effects.

Filming took place in vibrant locations, including Bogotá, Rio de Janeiro, and Eastern Europe, ensuring a visually stunning backdrop for the intense, globe-trotting narrative. The budget also funded intricate fight choreography and explosive stunts, which are expected to elevate the action to new heights. The story picks up years after the original, with Cataleya leading a quiet life in hiding until her past resurfaces, forcing her to return to the deadly underworld.

The addition of Jason Statham as a charismatic and complex antagonist, along with Michelle Rodriguez in a supporting role, has generated significant excitement among fans. Early projections suggest the film could gross over $600 million worldwide, making it a potential box office hit. This would mark a significant improvement over the first film, which grossed $63 million worldwide on a $40 million budget. The sequel’s larger scale, stellar cast, and emotional depth are expected to resonate with audiences, cementing its position as a standout action film of 2025.
