The Beekeeper 2

As of February 2025, “The Beekeeper 2” is in development, with principal photography scheduled to commence in Los Angeles, California, in January 2025. Jason Statham is set to reprise his role as Adam Clay, and David Ayer is expected to return as director.
The original film, “The Beekeeper,” released in January 2024, follows Adam Clay, a retired clandestine intelligence operative who dismantles a phishing operation, only to uncover its ties to a global network connected to powerful figures. Throughout the narrative, it’s revealed that Clay is a member of a secret government organization known as the Beekeepers, a group of highly trained agents operating beyond governmental jurisdiction to eliminate systemic corruption.
While specific plot details for the sequel remain under wraps, director David Ayer has expressed a keen interest in delving deeper into the mythology of the Beekeepers. He stated, “I’m fascinated by the mythology of the beekeepers. We’ve cracked the door a little bit and seen what they can do. Now I want to know: who are they, where did they come from, and where are they going? And where did Jason come from in all this? There’s so much more to explore.
Given the production timeline, “The Beekeeper 2” is anticipated to be released in early to mid-2026.
“The Beekeeper 2” is currently in development, with filming set to begin in early 2025. Jason Statham is confirmed to return as Adam Clay, the highly skilled operative from the first film, and David Ayer is expected to direct once again.
What to Expect in The Sequel
While official plot details are scarce, the sequel is expected to expand on the secretive Beekeeper organization. In the first film, Adam Clay was revealed to be a member of this underground group, which operates outside government oversight to eliminate systemic corruption. Director David Ayer has hinted that the second film will explore the origins of the Beekeepers, their history, and their purpose on a deeper level.
Potential Storyline
The sequel could delve into Adam Clay’s pastโwhere he was trained, who founded the Beekeepers, and the global network behind their operations. Itโs also likely that new enemies will emerge, possibly those seeking to dismantle the Beekeeper organization or exploit its power. Given the high-octane action of the first film, “The Beekeeper 2” will likely continue the franchiseโs brutal fight sequences and intense espionage-style storytelling.
Release Date
Since filming is set to begin in 2025, a likely release window for “The Beekeeper 2” would be sometime in early to mid-2026.
