Sisu: Road to Revenge Trailer and Poster Debut
Sony Pictures’ Screen Gems has released the official trailer and poster for Stage 6 Films’ Sisu: Road to Revenge, which is set to open in U.S. theaters on November 21, 2025.
The Sisu sequel is written and directed by visionary Finnish filmmaker Jalmari Helander. Jorma Tommila returns in the lead role, starring alongside Richard Brake and Stephen Lang.
Sisu: Road to Revenge is a wall-to-wall cinematic action event, a sequel to the original sleeper hit Sisu. Returning to the house where his family was brutally murdered during the war, “the man who refuses to die” (Jorma Tommila) dismantles it, loads it on a truck, and is determined to rebuild it somewhere safe in their honor.
When the Red Army commander who killed his family (Stephen Lang from Don’t Breathe) comes back hellbent on finishing the job, a relentless, eye-popping cross-country chase ensues – a fight to the death, full of clever, unbelievable action set pieces.
Petri Jokiranta produced the film through Subzero Film Entertainment, in association with Good Chaos and Mike Goodridge. Gregory Ouanhon and Antonio Salas are the executive producers.
The film is backed by the Finnish Film Foundation, Film Estonia, Business Finland – Audiovisual Production Incentive, Film Tampere, Viru Film Fund, and BNP Paribas – COFILOISIRS – with the support of the IFCIC.
Stage 6 Film’s SVP of creative development and production, Eric Charles, oversaw the film for the studio, which holds global rights to the film.
The original Sisu had its world premiere in the Midnight Madness section at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival, where it received rave reviews. The film went on to screen at Sitges Film Festival, where it was honored with the awards for Best Feature Film, Best Actor, Best Cinematography, and Best Original Music.
Subzero Film Entertainment was established in 2012 by producer Petri Jokiranta and director Jalmari Helander after the success of their previous film, Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale. Under their Subzero banner, Jokiranta and Helander will focus on developing high-concept genre projects, with Helander directing and Subzero producing.
Big Game (2015), directed by Jalmari Helander and starring Samuel L. Jackson and Jim Broadbent, was the first film produced under the Subzero banner. The latest film, Sisu (2022) by Jalmari Helander, was a critical and commercial success. It opened in the top 10 in US theaters and was released worldwide.
Good Chaos is a fast-growing London-based production company set up in 2020 by Mike Goodridge. In addition to the Sisu sequel, upcoming releases in 2025 include The Ballad of a Small Player, a romantic thriller directed by Oscar-winning director Edward Berger and starring Colin Farrell and Tilda Swinton; Orphan, the powerful new film by Oscar-winning director Laszlo Nemes; and Shih-Ching Tsou and Sean Baker’s Left-Handed Girl, which has been selected for Critics Week in Cannes.
In 2024, the company was responsible for two of the year’s international film Oscar submissions: Baltasar Kormákur’s Touch from Iceland and Sandhya Suri’s Santosh from the UK. The company’s previous credits include Triangle of Sadness, Quo Vadis, Aida?, Tchaikovsky’s Wife, Club Zero, and Sisu.
