The sequel adaptation Rainbow Six based of Tom Clancy’s novel just got a lot more exciting as John Wick action maestro Chad Stahelski has been tapped to direct the direct sequel which will see Michael B. Jordan returning.

For those that are not in the know, Rainbow Six is the follow up to Without Remorse which sees Jordan starring as former Navy SEAL John Clark. The first film has Clark going on a kill mission of vengeance when his wife and comrades are killed by unknown assailants. Clark then discovers that there is a bigger conspiracy involved and must use his skills to stay alive and expose the truth.

The movie served as an origin story for Clark and ended with him being recruited into Rainbow Six. No further plot details have been dropped but will most likely in the hear future.

Stahelski has proven himself one of the most formidable action directors today having had a successful career as a stuntman. John Wick was his directorial debut and we all know how that turned out.

With Stahelski involved and directing, expect 87Eleven to get involved ramping up the action set pieces to a fever pitch. This bodes well for the franchise and any future installments.

Keep it locked and loaded right here as we are your destination for everything action in the new year and beyond!
