<i>The Old Guard 3</i>: Everything We Know

After a five year wait, The Old Guard 2 was finally released on Netflix, but the sequel created as many questions as it offered answers. Fans of the two first films are clamoring to know if there will be another film in the franchise coming. Here’s what we know about the possibility of The Old Guard 3 so far. Warning: Spoilers ahead.

The Old Guard 3 movie has not been officially confirmed. The writer of the comics, Greg Rucka, said in a 2020 interview with Looper.com that it should be a trilogy, however.

“There is a complete three-part story that can be told,” Rucka said. “God willing, if it’s a success, Netflix comes back and says, ‘Hey, let’s do it again.’ There’s more to tell, and there are questions that we want to answer.”

In 2025, stars Henry Golding and Marwan Kenzari told Decider they didn’t know about a third movie.

“It really depends on you guys [the audience],” Golding said.

Kenzari added, “I think we just all hope that we [get a sequel], as fast as we can. We don’t need a lot of excuses to hang out, on set, and off.”

“We’re getting old,” Golding joked, with Kenzari adding, “Yeah, so if we want to pull off these stunts and fights, we need to get cracking!”

The Old Guard 2 ends with almost the entire team being captured by Discord. Andy and Quynh have reunited and are planning to rescue their friends. But we don’t see it, and viewers have assumed that means a third film is inevitable.

Golding shared his thoughts on the cliffhanger with Decider, saying, “We always knew we wouldn’t be able to summarize such an epic crescendo in one movie. We knew there was going to have to be a cut point. The jeopardy of Andy having lost the Old Guard, was such a carrot to dangle in front of the audience. Now she’s on the back foot. What does she do? She’s back with her eternal lover. The power that those two have, is a force to be reckoned with, and so the impending clash with Uma Thurman’s character[Discord]—it’s salivating, just to think about. Somebody had to be put in a body bag, and I guess it was us!”

Director Victoria Mahoney spoked about it with ScreenRant, but didn’t confirm what that meant for a third film. Mahoney just said all she cares about is “what’s occurring with the characters in any given moment.”

Mahoney continued, “That’s all I’m chasing. That it happens to be a cliffhanger, that it involves some stuff that may make some people happy, and some people pissed off, that’s not my circus. I’m just trying to do it honestly and earnestly. I stand behind it.”

Uma Thurman as Discord, Charlize Theron as Andy, Vân Veronica Ngô as Quynh,Marwan Kenzari as Joe, and Henry Golding as Tuah, seems like a fair guess for a follow-up, given how things end in the second film. But Theron is also working on Netflix’s Apex, Atomic Blonde 2, and a film with Daniel Craig for Apple. It might take a while to get everyone’s schedule to line up.
