A new action movie with heavy ties to the John Wick<\/strong><\/a> franchise is performing well on Rotten Tomatoes. The John Wick movies<\/a> star Keanu Reeves in the title role as a retired assassin whose revenge mission after the murder of his dog takes him on a violent and grandiose adventure.<\/p>\n

The franchise has so far lasted for four movies with various feature-length and episodic spinoffs. John Wick <\/strong>Director David Leitch also co-founded the company 87North productions<\/strong> (with Kelly McCormick), which largely focuses on ushering other Wick-esque productions to the screen.<\/p>\n

The 87North roster includes the Christmas action-comedy Violent Night<\/strong>, the Brad Pitt actioner Bullet Train, the Mary Elizabeth Winstead-led Netflix movie Kate, the stunt-heavy Ryan Gosling movie The Fall Guy, and a new movie that has just earned a solid Rotten Tomatoes score.<\/p>\n

Nobody 2 Has Won Over Critics<\/p>\n

Nobody 2 has established a Rotten Tomatoes streak for the franchise. The 87North movie is a sequel to 2021’s Nobody, which starred Bob Odenkirk as seemingly unassuming businessman Hutch Mansell<\/strong>, who finds himself drawing upon his past as an assassin when he is dragged into a John Wick-style action adventure.<\/p>\n

The sequel, which takes place years after the ending of Nobody<\/a> and sees Hutch trying to keep his family vacation afloat while tangling with a local crime boss<\/strong>, was directed by Timo Tjahjanto and features returning co-stars Connie Nielsen, RZA, Christopher Lloyd, Gage Munroe, and Paisley Cadorath, alongside newcomers including John Ortiz, Colin Hanks, and Sharon Stone.<\/p>\n

Rotten Tomatoes<\/a> has now aggregated enough reviews to give Nobody 2 an official Tomatometer score. While the score could fluctuate as more reviews are added, at the time of writing, 126 reviews have been tabulated to give the movie a solidly Fresh score of 78%<\/strong>. Additionally, Nobody 2 has enough reviews to be officially Certified Fresh on the platform.<\/p>\n

What This Means For Nobody 2<\/p>\n

By earning a Certified Fresh score, 2025’s Nobody 2<\/a> has continued a Rotten Tomatoes hot streak for the franchise. The original movie previously earned a Certified Fresh 84% Tomatometer score <\/strong>and a Verified Hot 94% audience score on the Popcornmeter. <\/p>\n

While it remains to be seen if audiences love the new movie enough for it to be Verified Hot as well, it so far has 92% on the Popcornmeter thanks to more than 250 verified ratings<\/strong>, so if it maintains that level of approval as more user reviews are added, it will be Verified Hot before long.<\/p>\n

This franchise hot streak is a good sign for 87North, because Nobody 2 is the first non-John Wick <\/strong>sequel that they have produced. As they continue to establish other franchises with other sequels like the upcoming Violent Night 2<\/a>, if they continue to have this level of critical approval, they could have quite a few Wick-style successes on their hands.<\/p>\n
