Atomic Blonde 2

In conversation with Total Film (via Comic Book), Charlize Theron confirmed a sequel to Atomic Blonde is in development at Netflix.

We took [Atomic Blonde 2] to them and Scott Stuber [Head of Original Films at Netflix] was really interested in it. We talked to him about it extensively, and we’re in the process of writing it right now. That character was set up in a way where she didn’t really reveal much of herself. So I feel like there’s a lot of potential there. The bar’s pretty high, but we’re excited about it.
