The first official photo from the set of the upcoming television spin-off of Tyler Rake: Extraction has been released. The new series stars Omar Sy in the leading role and expands the universe of the popular action franchise originally centered on the character of Tyler Rake.
According to the available information, the story follows a mercenary named Sy, who embarks on a dangerous mission to rescue hostages in Libya. During this operation, he becomes drawn into a violent conflict between rival factions. The mission quickly escalates, placing the protagonist in the middle of an unstable and hostile environment shaped by opposing forces.
The released image provides the first visual insight into the series, confirming the project’s active production stage. No additional details about the specific scene shown in the photo have been disclosed. The focus of the reveal remains on the confirmation of the series’ tone and setting rather than narrative developments beyond the basic plot outline.
The series is being developed under the guidance of Glen Mazzara, who serves as the showrunner. Mazzara is known for his work on The Walking Dead, a detail that has been officially confirmed as part of the project’s creative leadership. His involvement defines the show’s production structure but has not been accompanied by further commentary on creative direction.
Production duties are handled by Joe and Anthony Russo, commonly known as the Russo brothers.

Their role as producers maintains continuity between the original films and the new television project.
At this stage, no release date has been announced, and no additional casting information has been provided beyond Omar Sy’s lead role. The project is positioned as a direct expansion of the Extraction universe, focusing on a new central character while retaining the franchise’s core premise of high-risk rescue operations.
