After the unambiguous success of the first film, it’s not surprising that Netflix is pursuing an
Old Guard sequel. Granted, nothing was confirmed back in July of 2020, right after the movie dropped, when Rucka told SYFY WIRE that “there will be discussions of a sequel, I’m sure,” if the film did well.
Well, the film did incredibly well, and Rucka and Fernandez have two more
Old Guard graphic novels in the wings ready for adaptation. It’s possible the Netflix sequel will be based on the second novel, wherein, according to the Goodreads synopsis, Theron’s character, Andy, must “confront the sins of the past” while near-immortal Nile (played by KiKi Lane in the Netflix film) tries to patch things up with her new warrior family.
