Sisu 2 – The Immortal Returns
The sequel to the acclaimed World War II action hit Sisu brings back its legendary hero. Sisu 2, written and directed by Jalmari Helander, reunites audiences with Aatami Korpi, played once again by Jorma Tommila — the stone‑faced Finnish commando whose brutal revenge mission against Nazi forces turned him into an unstoppable force of nature.
While plot details remain tightly under wraps, early reports suggest the story follows Aatami’s attempt to live quietly after claiming his hard‑earned gold. But peace proves fleeting, and when a new threat emerges—someone who knows his past—Aatami is pulled back into the shadows, forced to wield his lethal skillset once more.
Filming wrapped in late 2024 in Estonia, marking a departure from the remote Finnish wilderness of the first film. With a production budget more than double the original, the sequel promises wider scope, larger set pieces, and even more inventive action choreography.
Joining Tommila are rising stars Stephen Lang and Richard Brake, both known for their intense presence and capability to match Aatami’s deadliness. Their inclusion hints at formidable adversaries — enemies worthy of the immortal.
Sisu 2 is shaping up to escalate the first film’s gritty and minimalist style — maintaining its dry dark humor and brutal efficiency — while expanding its cinematic ambition.
Set for a late 2025 international release, the film is expected to lean fully into relentless survival, mythic vengeance, and physical grit. It’s a tale of one man’s refusal to go quietly, even when the world demands it.
If the original Sisu was a Finnish‑frontier John Wick in wartime, Sisu 2 is poised to be its bloodier, bolder successor.
