"The Gray Man," one of Netflix's most expensive
movies to date, began streaming on Friday and was the most
watched film on the streaming service in 92 countries, the
company said.
Gosling stars in the film as Sierra Six, a former inmate sprung
from prison by the CIA in exchange for servitude in a secret
program.
A "Gray Man" movie sequel is now in development with Gosling and
directors Joe and Anthony Russo, Netflix said in a statement.
The company also announced a separate spinoff movie but did not
provide details on the storyline or characters.
The expansion of "Gray Man" is part of Netflix's strategy to
build brands with well-known characters that can traverse film,
television, video games and movies.
