Avengement 2 (2025) – Vengeance Has Evolved, and So Has He

The streets taught him pain. The system taught him war

Avengement 2 (2025) roars back onto the screen as a brutal, adrenaline-drenched sequel that doesn’t just raise the stakes—it breaks them. Picking up after the explosive finale of the first film, this installment sees Cain Burgess (Scott Adkins) walking a bloodier, more personal path than ever before. He's no longer just a man seeking revenge—he's a man shaped by it, and now he’s turning his fury toward something far bigger than betrayal: the system that created monsters like him.

In Avengement, Cain was a betrayed fighter molded by violence and hardened in prison. In Avengement 2, he’s out—but not free. London’s underworld has changed, and the criminal empire he left behind has evolved into a corporate hydra of drugs, blood money, and corrupt cops. Cain didn’t come back to make peace—he came to dismantle it, one broken jaw at a time.

The film wastes no time diving back into the grit. The trailer showcases underground fight pits, high-rise shootouts, and a bone-crunching hallway brawl that rivals anything in The Raid. Scott Adkins is at the top of his game, bringing blistering martial arts, raw physicality, and an even sharper edge to Cain. He's a man with nothing to lose—but a very long list of people who should.

This time, Cain isn’t acting alone. He forms an uneasy alliance with Alina (a mysterious ex-intelligence officer played by [casting TBA]), whose motivations are as murky as her past. Together, they aim higher than street-level thugs—they’re coming for the men in suits pulling the strings. But revenge comes at a price, and Cain’s past sins are catching up fast.

Director Jesse V. Johnson returns with a vengeance—literally. The camera moves like a coiled fist, the pacing is relentless, and the violence is surgical. But amidst the carnage, Avengement 2 finds moments of stark humanity: a visit to a grave, a shaky confession, a silent flash of regret before the next blow lands. It’s not just fists flying—it’s Cain’s soul fighting to find what’s left of him.

Avengement 2 proves that some men aren’t heroes or villains—they’re just survivors with a cause and no apologies. Cain Burgess may not want redemption. But he will leave nothing standing between him and his message: never mistake silence for surrender.
