 *Director Jalmari Helander praises Jorma Tommila's machine-like intensity in Sisu: Road to Revenge*

Nearly a decade after redefining modern action survival language with Sisu, filmmaker Jalmari Helander and Jorma Tommila return with the sequel, Sisu: Road to Revenge. The time with larger scale, larger emotional stakes, and a new thematic frontier - what happens after a man who refuses to die has already survived the unimaginable.

As the franchise moves into the next phase, director Jalmari Helander shares that Tommila brings relentless, almost machine-like intensity and energy to the screen. He says, “It’s always a pleasure to work with Jorma because he is uniquely capable of creating emotions, including rage and grief, with almost no dialogue. We experience what Aatami is feeling and thinking just by his face and gestures.”

Tommila describes Jalmari's character Aatami Korpi as “a family man, until the war began. Then, everything changed. He’s lost everything and thus had nothing else to lose. But somehow, when we see him in this film, Aatami has found a new purpose in life, and has in some ways overcome the horrors of war. Now, he thinks there may still be some kind of future for him.” 

SISU: ROAD TO REVENGE, a sequel to the original sleeper hit Sisu, is a wall-to-wall cinematic action event. Returning to the house where his family was brutally murdered during the war, Aatami — “the man who refuses to die” (Jorma Tommila) — dismantles it, loads it on a truck, and is determined to rebuild it somewhere safe, in their honor. When the Red Army commander (Stephen Lang), who killed his family, returns hellbent on finishing the job — a relentless, eye-popping cross-country chase erupts. A fight to the death full of clever and unbelievable action set pieces.
