The saga continues with The Old Guard 2, arriving July 2, 2025, exclusively on Netflix. Following the success of the 2020 original, this action-packed sequel plunges deeper into the emotional and physical cost of eternal life. Charlize Theron returns as Andy, the legendary warrior who now faces a terrifying new reality—mortality.
Story Overview
Once feared across centuries as an invincible force, Andy (Charlize Theron) now bleeds, scars—and can die. For the first time in her centuries-long life, she’s vulnerable, just as the world around her erupts in chaos.
Her immortal team, fractured and scattered, is drawn back together when a new and ominous threat emerges—Discord (Uma Thurman), the very first immortal. Once a forgotten myth, Discord has returned with a katana and a vendetta, prepared to reshape the world in fire and vengeance.
But that’s not all. Tuah (Henry Golding), a mysterious figure with deep knowledge of the origins of immortality, may hold the answers they’ve all been searching for—but his loyalties are unclear. As past betrayals resurface and old enemies return, every fight might be their last.
