Code 8 Part II Reveals First Teaser Trailer

Code 8 is set in a super-powered society, where 4% of the population have powers without discernible origin. As such, anyone with powers must register with the city if they want to go about their lives relatively unbothered by others. However, the power still faces prejudice from others, including the police force, who now use specialized robots to detect and keep the power under their control. The movie was released as a feature in 2019 following a successful Kickstarter campaign and eventually found its audience thanks to a Netflix release. It was fairly well-received by viewers, garnering an 81% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes from critics and a 61% audience score.

Code 8 Part II picks up some time after the events of Code 8. Connor (Robbie Amell) now works as a janitor following his release from prison and his mother’s death. Despite finally getting distance from Garrett (Stephen Amell) and his band of criminals, Connor becomes involved with the group once more to help a teenage girl named Pav (Sirena Gulamgaus) escape a corrupt police sergeant. Aaron Abrams, Alex Mallari Jr., and Jean Yoon also star in the sequel written and directed by Jeff Chan.

The original ‘Code 8,’ released in 2019, was a crowdfunded project that exceeded expectations, amassing a dedicated fan base eager for more. Directed by Jeff Chan and featuring actors Robbie Amell and Stephen Amell, the film delved into a world where people with supernatural abilities were marginalized by society. The gritty, action-packed storyline resonated with audiences, sparking anticipation for the continuation of the saga.
