Fans of classic 80s action films are in for a treat as Sylvester Stallone officially reprises his role as Marion “Cobra” Cobretti in Cobra 2, the long-awaited sequel to the 1986 cult favorite. Directed by Chad Stahelski (John Wick franchise), the film promises a thrilling blend of gritty action, intense drama, and Stallone’s signature brand of justice.
Set decades after the events of the original, Cobra 2 sees a retired Cobretti living off the grid, haunted by his past as a ruthless enforcer of the law. However, his quiet life is shattered when a new criminal syndicate, known as “The Scorchers,” begins a wave of chaos across Los Angeles. This violent gang, led by the enigmatic and sadistic leader known only as “Inferno” (played by Javier Bardem), reignites Cobra’s sense of duty, pulling him back into the fight.
Joining Stallone in the action-packed sequel is Ana de Armas as Detective Sofia Reyes, a fiery and determined LAPD officer who partners with Cobra despite their contrasting methods. Together, they navigate a dangerous web of corruption, uncovering ties between The Scorchers and a shadowy corporate entity with ties to Cobretti’s past.
