Code 8, a sci-fi action film series produced by cousins Stephen and Robbie Amell, is based on the 2016 short film of the same name and directed by Jeff Chan. The first film was briefly in cinemas before being released on Netflix in 2020. Code 8 follows Connor Reed (Robbie Amell), who uses his superhuman abilities to help criminals in order to raise money for his sick mother.
The sequel, Code 8: Part 2, was released on Netflix in February 2024. At the time of writing (March 6), no announcement has been made about a third film. However, the sequel appears to have been successful, topping Netflix’s film chart worldwide following its release.
Stephen Amell has expressed interest in exploring more of Lincoln City in a potential third film. Speaking about the possibility of a third installment at MegaCon Orlando, Stephen explained that he wants to see more about the powers and hierarchy of Lincoln City.
“We are still very much at the street level of Lincoln City and obviously there has to be a hierarchy up there. So, I think that we tell a compelling story. You do learn more about Robbie’s character and my character and the power population, but it just still very much feels like it’s scratching the surface,” he said.
Both Code 8 and Code 8: Part 2 are available to stream on Netflix
