Directed by F. Gary Gray, Lift is a heist comedy film streaming on Netflix. The plot revolves around Cyrus, an international thief with a reputation, who puts together a band of equally resourceful people to conduct a heist at 40,000 feet. Lift premiered on January 12, 2024. If you are wondering whether there will be a Lift 2, here is what we have discovered.
Here’s all the Lift 2 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a Lift 2 release date?
Lift 2 does not have an official release date, but it can be announced in the future.
As of January 2024, Lift 2 hasn’t been officially announced. This is expected as the first film recently premiered, and Netflix will likely assess how it performs before greenlighting a sequel. However, in an interview, F. Gary Gray told Variety that a sequel was possible, at least in terms of the story.
“After the premiere, that’s exactly what we keep hearing from the people who watch the movie, like, ‘We want to see more of them,’” the filmmaker said. “I think that’s a Netflix choice. I think they have an opportunity for a sequel. They may have an opportunity for a franchise. I think that’s above my pay grade, but I do believe that based on the response, there’s an opportunity there, and I think Netflix and Kevin and the cast will have a lot to do with the choice if that happens or not.”
Lift has a $100 million budget, so for a sequel to happen, it must match up to what Netflix considers a big success. However, if everything goes well, another Lift film is definitely possible.
The cast includes Kevin Hart as Cyrus, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Abby, Sam Worthington as Huxley, Vincent D’Onofrio as Denton, Úrsula Corberó as Camila, Billy Magnussen as Magnus, Kim Yoon-ji as Mi-Sun, Viveik Kalra as Luke, Jean Reno as Jorgenson, Jacob Batalon as N8, Burn Gorman as Cormac, Paul Anderson as Donal, David Proud as Harry, and more.
Where is Lift 2 coming out?
Lift 2 could come out on Netflix.
This is because the first film premiered on the same platform. ComingSoon will provide an update if and when Lift 2 is officially greenlit.
The official synopsis for Lift reads:
